    Mix dry oatmeal with a squirt of honey and some warm water. Make it into a thick paste, pat it onto your face and rub it around a bit for an exfollaiting effect. Rinse off. It will leave your face soft.

    Mix some brown sugar with some olive oil or honey or even a little water, make it thick like wet sand and scrub your face with it. Leaves it soft.

    Some people say avacado, but they are expensive. Everyone has oatmeal and honey in the house. If not, get some packets of honey next time you go to KFC! Ha ha!

    Have fun!

    use egg yolk for oily skin and egg whites for dry skin..you can also try a paste of honey and oatmeal…or mixing strawberries with sugar and using it as an exfoliating scrub.

    I hate seeing those recipes that have about 12 things in them, like “1 Banana, Olive Oil, Strawberries…” its too much and take forever to do. These are some simple one that I like best:

    1 package yeast and 2-3 tablespoons of warm water. Mix the two. It will be somewhat gritty and very light, but the Vitamin B will work wonders. Leave on for 20 minutes, then rinse with warm water.

    For a once a month mask or quick fix:
    mix 1 tablespoon of Bisquick or pancake mix with 2.5 teaspoons of water. This will make a paste.
    Put it on for 15-20 minutes (no longer!).
    Take a warm, wet cloth and let it sit on the mask to “crack” it, then gently wipe off.
    Rinse with cold water.

    It sounds gross, but it’s really good. My old esthetician school charged $50 for that mask and people loved it. The school called it “Instant Facelift.” When I had to do one, I looked at it and smelled it and commented that it looked like Bisquick. It tasted it and realized it was just plain old Bisquick.

    Finally, put creamy honey (the white, spreadable kind) around your lower eyes, being careful to avoid your lashes. Wipe off after 15 minutes. It is the best thing I’ve found for wrinkles, bags, and dark circles.
