Easy Oatmeal Mask Recipe

Posted in Beauty, Home and Living | 1 comment

I love DIY natural beauty products. That way, you save and you do away with harsh chemicals that are often present in store bought beauty products. I used to make my own lip balm, I usually mix my bath scrub salts and sometimes I make my own mask. My favorites would be avocado and also honey masks and this one looks interesting – Natural Oatmeal Mask.

Here’s a recipe I found in E-how, and its simple and easy enough to follow.

You’ll need:
1/2 cup hot water
2 tbsp plain yogurt
2 tbsp honey
1 egg white
1/3 cup oatmeal (quick/instant)

How To:

1. Add water to oatmeal and wait till it thickens.
2. Mix the rest of the ingredients together with the oatmeal mixture.
3. Apply the oatmeal mask to your face in a thin, even layer. leave it on for 10 to 15 minutes
4. Mask can be refrigerated up to a week.

I have this thing about aromatherapy and alternative health care. I mean, I like taking care of myself and if there is a natural way to help prevent any ailments, then I’m bound to be interested in it. Not that I fancy myself holding healthcare jobs, I simply am very curious about what other means one can alleviate or prevent any disease.

One of the things I’m very interested in is natural remedies for those with sinus and asthma. My mom, my sister, me and my daughter has this problem. Just this past year, I found it very helpful to have regular facial saunas particularly when I have clogged nose. I rarely now have severe asthma attacks, and it just really helps the sneezing bouts. I found this video at E-how and its has some helpful and interesting tips..
