Sunday Mask: DIY Turmeric Mask

Hello Sunday all! How has your weekend been? I really can't complain about mine I guess. LOL.

Yesterday, I used a mask to help control my oily skin. Today, I will use a turmeric mask to help fade the acne scars and brighten up my complexion. 

Turmeric is great for skin care. It is rich in antioxidants, it helps even out skin pigmentation anddiminish wrinkles among many others. I remember when I was little, back when I was a real tomboy and would come home with cuts everywhere. My Mom would smash turmeric roots up and apply it to my healed wound and/or scars to lighten it up. When I started puberty, my Mom would use the same smash turmeric root method and apply that all over my face to help even out my skin tone. And that’s how I’ve been using turmeric until I came across this recipe not long ago. Although my Mom thinks that the real thing is better, I still let her put that smash turmeric root on me so I can please her, I mean…nothing to complain about.

So here we go, this could get a tad messy guys so be careful!

TURMERIC MASK

What you’ll need:
-2 Tablespoon of Flour
-1 Teaspoon of Turmeric Powder
-3 Tablespoon of Milk (you can replace milk for plain yogurt if you like)
-1/2 Teaspoon of Honey
-1/4 Teaspoon of Lemon Juice

What to do:
-First, mix the flour and turmeric powder thoroughly.
-Add milk/yogurt to the mix.
-Add honey and lemon juice and mix, mix, mix!
-It should result in a creamy, thick paste.

How to use it:
-Apply the paste all over your face and neck.
-Let the mask dry, it’ll take about 20-25 minutes.
-Rinse off with warm water, gently scrubbing as you rinse.

I want to remind you again that this mask might stain, so please use with caution. It’s never happened to me before, though it did stain my hands but I can easily wash that off. The fresh turmeric root stains far worst than this and I was able to wash that off.

Thank you for visiting and thanks a bunches for reading. Please come back tomorrow for my manicure post. :)

Sunday Mask: DIY Turmeric Mask

Heeeey guys! How is your Sunday?

It's been a crazy week and today is finally the "down" day, yet everyone is here and it's still nosier than ever. Yesterday's get together was a success, surprisingly we did not have any food left over. What am I talking about, we never do. Haha. So the relatives ended up staying for another week, so there will be a part 2 next weekend.

As for today, I am done with my role of helping out. I get to have time to myself today. Since it's the Summer and I am spending quite some time out in the sun whether swimming or just outside. My face has gotten like a couple shades darker and unevenly at that. Do you know what I'm talking about? Like my forehead, nose and cheekbones seem to be a tad darker than the rest of my face.

Today's mask recipe is not a new one. I am going back to a trustworthy whitening mask to help brighten up my skin a bit. The main ingredient in this recipe is turmeric. If you don't know, turmerics are used in skincare products to help brighten skin and fade dark spots, acne scars and other blemishes. After treating my acne problem, I am now left with many acne scars so hopefully by using this mask will help.
