Two Natural Skin Care Recipes You Can Make At Home

Egg yolks are widely acknowledged as one of nature’s best moisturizers. Here are a couple ultra-rich masks to “deep condition” hair and skin.

Egg Yolk & Honey Facial Mask (best for drier skin types)

Mix Together

* 1 tablespoon honey
* 1 egg yolk
* 1/2 teaspoon almond oil
* 1 tablespoon yogurt

Honey stimulates and smoothes, egg and almond oil penetrate and moisturize, and yogurt refines and tightens pores.

Egg Yolk, Avocado & Mud Facial Mask (best for oily skin types)

Mix Together

* 1 tablespoon dry clay — clay or fuller’s earth mud is available in powder form at any health food store
* 1 egg yolk
* 1/4 of a mashed avocado
* enough witch hazel to create a smooth mixture

Mud dries excess sebum while the egg yolk and avocado replenish lost moisture. The witch hazel tones the skin.
