7 easy-peasy ways to Acne-Free Celebrity Skin
If you belong to the sensitive skin clan like me, you probably know, how hard it is to find safe, effective facial masks from the stores.
If you belong to the sensitive skin clan like me, you probably know, how hard it is to find safe, effective facial masks from the stores. You have to look for mild ingredients, fragrance-free, non-allergic, sulfate-free, non-comedogenic and the list goes on.
The store-bought products are very handy to use, provided you have found the right ones for you. I use them happily myself. Through trial and error, I have found the ones which work perfectly for my skin.
But what if I tell you don’t need to depend on only store-bought masks or buy those expensive organic, clean ones to get that dewy, healthy shine on your face?
You can get fabulous results using ingredients right from your kitchen cabinets or fridge.
The homemade masks or facials that I am gonna share are made up of common kitchen ingredients like banana, oatmeal, turmeric, honey, cucumber, avocado, yoghurt and so on. These gentle and nourishing ingredients will give you a vibrant fresh look while sooting your sensitive, inflamed skin.
The ingredients I have used in these recipes are very common household items. We actually eat most of them. But since we all have unique skin that can react differently to any ingredients, please do a patch test (internal link) by applying a small amount of the mask on the inside of your elbow and leaving it for 10-15 minutes. If no adverse reaction is seen, they may safely be used on the face.
Without hesitation, you can skip an ingredient that does not suit you or you don’t feel comfortable using it. You can adjust the amount too. There is no hard and fast rules for these DIY masks.
If you have chronic skin problems like psoriasis, eczema, acne, rosacea, or any other skin conditions at an advanced stage, please see your dermatologist before using the masks, just to be over sure.
This mask is like a glass of water to quench the thirst of your dehydrated skin. Cucumber to cool your skin, yoghurt and honey to boost hydration and lock it to give you soft and supple baby skin.
The probiotics in yogurt may help protect against signs of aging by increasing elasticity and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Turmeric’s anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and antioxidant properties is widely known and can calm your irritated, inflamed skin and treat a variety of dermatologic issues including warding off acne-causing bacteria.
Bananas are packed with all the goodness of antioxidants, potassium, Vitamin A, and their silica content. Vitamin C & A help promote healthy cell turnover, while the antibacterial properties of turmeric will ward off acne-causing bacteria. Raw manuka honey with its medically proven healing properties will ease the pain and inflammation of acne and also act as a great repairer of damaged skin.
Plain yogurt is ideal for acne-prone skin when you combine it with ripe bananas. This double-blast is perfect to keep problem skin radiant, soothed , acne-free. It helps greatly to correct uneven skin tone, acne scare or age spots.
The yoghurt and banana combo has amazing antibacterial, and antifungal properties to combat those nasty blotches, and irritating breakouts. Mild bleaching power smooths out discolouration, sunburns, and ageing spots without being harsh on sensitive skin. Bananas help banish dryness and revitalize dull, drab skin.

The antioxidants and vitamins in avocado may help heal skin that is dry, flaky, and itchy from eczema or psoriasis. The fatty acids and hydrating agents of avocado and coconut oil will seep into the deeper layers of your skin to provide long-lasting moisture.
