Who can't resist strawberries? Half of the strawberries that I buy from the shop goes on my skin and my hair.  It is very irresistible once you start using Strawberry in your face mask.I like to prepare my mask fresh and use it immediately.If you have some unused portion left, you can use it like a scrubber when you are washing your face.

Ingredients:

Strawberry -1
Honey-1/4 tsp
Besan- 1 tbsp

Mash the strawberry ,honey and besan in a small blender.You will find a little itching sensation on the skin while it is getting dried.  Apply it  on a clean face  and neck for 15-20 minutes. Besan is  used as a binding agent which helps strawberry stay  on the skin. You can adjust to whatever consistency you want to.Give a gentle scrub using  warm water and remove the mask  after it is dried.You will surely feel refreshed and it gives a nice glow to the face.None of the ingredients is harmful to your skin. Be sure to try out on a small patch to test whether you are allergic to any of the  ingredients.





 
I am big fan of doing face masks at home.The reasons are it is fresh,natural and I know what I am putting on my skin plus it costs me nothing. 


Ingredients:
  1. Besan- 3/4 tbsp
  2. Neem Powder-1/2 tsp
  3. Milk- enough to make a paste consistency
Mix all the above  ingredients in a bowl and apply it on your clean face for 10-15 minutes. Do make sure you don't apply on the eyebrows and near the eyes. Vola you have made your own face masks.Then using warm water, kindly scrub gently and see a difference in the skin texture.

Effects on the Skin:
You can feel your skin getting tightened.  For Acne Prone skin, neem powder is very good as it  acts as a  anti inflammation  and fight against the bacteria. It is very bitter to taste. Some people in India  eats the tender neem leaves in the early morning to cure the skin problems. Try it and let me know how it feels
