For this mask you will need a few ingredients that are harder to get.I had troubles finding some but in the end I found them made the mask and it worked great.
So here is what you need:
1 teaspoon green clay
1 teaspoon honey(liquid)
1 teaspoon yogurt (You can also use sour cream)
1 drop rose essential oil
Now you have to mix all the ingredients together and apply the mask to your face.
When you have the mask on you have to lay down for one hour and relax so the mask can work the best.Wash it of when you are ready.
This mask is also great for oily skin.
In this blog I'll write about how to get rid of that little thing that you hate about yourself(like blemishes,dry hair,bad skin,blackheads and stuff like that)all with natural products that you can find in your kitchen.... I will also be reviewing cosmetics

Get rid of dry hair :)
Many people have dry hair and they usually don't know what causes that..There are many reasons but here are some main ones:
Mayo mask: Heat up one half cup of mayonnaise until it becomes an oily, white goo and apply to dry, unwashed hair. Cover your hair with a plastic bag and leave on for at least 15 minutes. Then, rinse and shampoo thoroughly.
Banana mask: Mash one over-ripe banana (the blacker, the better) with a mushy, rotten avocado. Massage this into your hair and leave on for at least 15 minutes before washing out...
- Harsh shampoo
- Shampooing too often
- Hair dye
- Hair perms
- Chlorine in swimming pools and hot tubs
- Overuse of the blow dryer or curling iron
- Too much exposure to sun and wind
- High mineral content in local water supplies
Egg Shampoo: Separate the white of an egg from the yolk, and whip the white thoroughly. Then add 1 tablespoon of water to the yolk and blend until the mixture is creamy. Next, mix the white and yolk together. Wet your hair with warm water, remove the excess moisture, and apply the egg mixture to your scalp with your fingertips. Massage gently until the mask/shampoo is worked into your scalp, and then rinse the hair with cool water. Keep applying the mixture until it is used up.Wash it out really good.

Chocolate good for skin?
People usually think that chocolate is bad for your skin but its actually not.No, it's the sugar in chocolate that is bad for you. Dark chocolate actually contains antioxidants that are good for your skin because they neutralize the free radicals that speed the aging process.
So here is a recipe for a good skin mask that will help your skin :)
You will need:
-1 cup of milk
-3 tbsp of salt
-1/3 of dark chocolate(has to be dark because of the sugar)
You melt everything together wait till it has cooled down and put it on your face..
You leave it on until it gets hard and then wash it off.

Oatmeal and Yogurt mask
I already wrote about why yogurt is good for skin but I haven't why oatmeal is.So here is why
1. Dryness fighting: Oats contain polysaccharides, which become gelatinous in water and
leave a fine protective film on the skin, preventing dull, flake-y dryness.
2. Pore cleansing: Oats are filled with natural cleansers (called saponins) that gently remove
dirt and oil from the pores.
3. Defense building: The proteins in oatmeal help maintain the skin's natural barrier function,
which is what ensures that the world outside the skin stays out, and what's inside the skin stays in.
4.And it also moisturizes your skin.....
So to make this mask you will need:
-1 tbsp of oatmeal
-1 tbsp of yogurt
-a few drops of honey
And all you need to do is mix the yogurt and oatmeal then add warm honey.
You leave it on your face for ten minutes then wash it off
