Why spend tons of money at the spa when you can give yourself nearly the exact same facial at home using ingredients that are in your kitchen? Facials made from all natural ingredients are the best. Oatmeal in particularly great at cleansing and moisturizing skin. Oatmeal is used in many body products. Use the following oatmeal based facials to help cleanse and moisturize your skin.
Try mixing together a tablespoon of oatmeal powder, the white of one egg, and a few drops of lemon oil. Lemon oil is sold at most homeopathic stores or you can check the organic section of your grocery store. Make your own oatmeal powder by grinding some oatmeal that you have on hand. Be sure not to use the instant cook kind, though. Because you’re using egg in this mixture, it’s important to mix the ingredients together thoroughly and completely. Taking care to avoid your eyes, spread the mixture on your face. Leave the mask on your face until it is dry which usually takes about twenty minutes or so. Once it has dried, you can wash it off with water and a soft washcloth.
If you suffer from dry skin, use this recipe. Mix a mashed up ripe banana with a cup of oatmeal. This is going to create a really thick mixture which you can thin out to form a creamy paste with some milk. Spread this creamy paste on your face, avoiding the area around your eyes and let sit for ten to fifteen minutes. After the fifteen minutes, rinse it off with clean water. You skin should now feel more moisturized!
People with very oily skin can even benefit from an oatmeal facial. This is one of the simplest facial mixtures that you can make. Add some water to some fresh and natural oatmeal to form a nice and creamy paste. Spread this on your face, again avoiding the area around your eyes, and let it dry completely. Be patient as this can take a while. Once the mask has dried completely you can rub it off of your face with your fingers. This should help your skin feel clean, moisturized, and not excessively. Rinse away any leftover oatmeal bits with some water and then pat dry thoroughly with a clean and soft towel.
There are lots of great ways that you can improve the condition of your skin with oatmeal. Many skin care specialists recommend using oatmeal if you want to make your own facials. There are thousands of facial recipes out there and the ones discussed above are just the beginning.
