In this article, I will give you one of my favourite recipes. This amazing homemade lime and honey face mask is super cool. Lime is similar to lemon. But it has more cleansing power. So, in this recipe, I want to combine the powers of lime and honey.
You probably have read my other articles. But if you have not, I will talk about something really important. I love taking care of my skin. When doing that, I always try to prepare my own homemade skincare products.
Lime and honey face mask will make your skin softer. And one good thing about this mask is you don’t need to wait for a long time. Effects of this mask are visible from the first application. Lime will clean your pores. Also, lime will remove all that excess oil on your face. This is good in many ways. Less oil means less acne and blackheads. And we all know how much trouble acne and blackheads can cause. Like many other, I used to have acne problem. But with these amazing homemade masks, I no longer need to worry about any acne.
In addition to these benefits, honey will even your skin tone and moisturise your skin. If you have acne scar from the past, honey can help reducing these scars. Lime will also support this process. So, in case of acne scars, lime and honey are the perfect duo.
Ingredients
1 tablespoon of freshly squeezed lime juice
1 tablespoon of organic raw honey
Method
* Take the lime and wash it.
* Cut the lime into two.
* Squeeze one half of the lime. You can put the other half into fridge for your future DIY projects.
* Mix squeezed lime juice and honey.
* Your mask is ready.
How To use
Before using this mask, you need to clean your face. Wash your face with your regular cleanser. Or if your face is clean, you can use water for washing. Then, apply your lime and honey face mask as a thin layer. You need to wait between 15 to 20 minutes. Or you can wait until the lime juice is entirely dry. After that, wash you face with warm water. Apply your regular moisturiser for hydrate your skin.
I always recommend preparing your DIY cosmetics for single use. In this case, I also recommend single use lime and honey mask. You can use this mask twice a week. If you have sensitive or dry skin, once a week might be more than enough. Since it is super easy to prepare this mask, you don’t need to prepare plenty of mask.
When you are using lime in your recipes, it is important to use this mask at night. Like lemon, some components of lime can interact with sunlight. This will cause brown sunspots. And it is really hard to fight against these sunspots. But if you use this amazing lime and honey face mask at night, you will not experience any problem.
