Homemade Beauty: Strawberry Acne Mask


Ingredients:
2 TBSP Honey
Juice of 1 Small Lemon
1/4 Cup Yogurt
1/4 cup Mashed Strawberries

Directions:

  • Squeeze your lemon into your mashed up strawberries. Your lemon is going to provide  a chemical exfoliation and brighten your skin by removing dead skin cells.
  • Pour your honey into your mashed strawberries and lemon mixture.  Honey is an amazing natural moisturizer
  • Pour your yogurt into your mixture and stir until smooth.  The yogurt is going to supply your mask with anti-bacterial properties to rid your face of bacteria. 
  • If  you find that you would like your mask to be thicker you can add a tablespoon of corn starch to bulk it up. 
  • Apply the mask to your face and leave on for 10 minutes.  Rinse and moisturize!

My Petal Club

A new box!  And a PERIOD subscription box at that!  I love finding new boxes to try out, especially when they are this affordable!  This box is normally $6.99 per month, but if you use the discount code "SUMMER" on mypetalclub.com , this box will be only $3.50!  And let's be honest, one box of pads/tampons is usually more expensive than that, so why not give it a try?? So this box primarily consists of just the period products with very few extras.  This isn't one of the present, feel-good kind of boxes, it just provides you with the necessary products to get through the month, at an affordable price. Step One The first thing you do on their website is choose the combination of products you will need.  Be warned, you aren't given as much of a selection if you order through Cratejoy like I did.  It worked totally fine and I still got the products I needed, but I like choice!  So I suggest going straight through their website....
