Hello everyone!
Yesterday I posted a recipe for a DIY acne-fighting gel and today I want to share another acne-fighting beauty recipe with you. For this DIY you will need two key ingredients; a lemon and a tomato.
Ingredients:
- 1 ripe tomato
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp oatmeal (optional)
Lemons are full of AHA’s and BHA’s which remove dead skin cells, fight acne, minimize pores and brighten skin.
Tomatoes have cooling and astringent properties. They’re also rich in antioxidants like vitamin C and vitamin A. Their acidity helps tame excessive oil production too.
Oatmeal helps reduce itching and inflammation and can be used to calm acne, eczema and heal psoriasis.
Method:
- Mash the peeled tomato in a bowl.
- Add the lemon juice (and oatmeal) and mix everything together.
- Apply to clean face and leave on for 15-20 minutes.
- Rinse and follow with your favourite toner and moisturiser.
Tip: If you have dry skin add half a teaspoon of coconut oil to this mask.
What’s your favourite vegan DIY beauty recipe?
