Strawberry Facial




Source of Recipe


Woman's World magazine






List of Ingredients



• 4 fresh strawberries
  
• 1 Tbsp honey
  
• 1 egg white
  






Instructions



1. Purée ingredients in a blender until smooth. Apply to freshly cleansed skin and relax for 20 minutes.
   
   Rinse with cool water.
   
   
   WHY IT WORKS:
   "Strawberries have salicylic acid in them, the same pore-cleansing ingredient found in acne treatments," says Cox. "But the salicylic acid in strawberries is gentler, so your skin won't feel dry." Honey also kills blemish-causing bacteria, while egg whites are natural astringents that dry excess oils for a clear complexion.
   
   HOW LONG WILL IT KEEP?
   One day. Raw eggs are highly perishable. Store in refrigerator if preparing hours before use.
