How To Make A Face Mask At Home?

Often times, I find myself looking alot darker than my normal tan color. Not that I have gone to Manhattan and layed in the hot sun. More like, I haven't had my beauty rest, my complexion is similar to the one close to my menstrual cycle days, and as if I hadn't washed my face. My blemishes couldn't be any more noticeable. What do I do? I go to Target and purchase a new face wash for "radiant skin". These face washes range from $7- $40 at Target, and lets face it sometimes our money goes down the drain because these face washes just don't do the job.

According to home-remedies-for-you.com you can dig in your fridge and start mixing for awakening skin. Honey and almonds are some of the basic ingredients that may be found in your fridge to help bring out a bright and radiant complexion. Now you can have your very own home spa.

  • Mix 1 tsp of milk powder, 1 tsp of honey, 1 tsp of lemon juice, and ½ tsp of almond oil. Apply on face and wash off after 10-15 minutes. This pack helps bring shine to the skin and also removes tan.


  • Mix oatmeal with curd and tomato juice and apply on the face. Keep it on for 20 minutes and then wash it off with cold water. It helps remove the tan and lightens the skin.


  • Place sliced raw potato on the face. It helps reduce blemishes and other marks.


  • Applying turmeric powder along with lime juice removes the tan. Lime juice is a natural bleach.


  • Dried orange peels mixed with curd also help reduce blemishes and scars. Wash off this mixture with cold water after 15 minutes.


  • Soak 4 almonds overnight. Grind into a fine paste using milk. Apply on face and neck and leave it overnight. Wash with cold water in the morning. Do this daily for 15 days, followed by twice a week.


  • A tbsp of gram flour mixed with 2 tsp of raw milk and 2-3 drops of lime juice works well for lightening dark skin. Apply this mixture and leave it for 15 minutes before washing off. Repeat for 4 weeks and follow up with once a week.


  • Apply a paste of fresh ground mint leaves and leave it for about 20 minutes. Wash with cold water, continue for 15 days.


  • Apply a mixture of grated tomato with 2-3 drops of lime juice on the face. Leave it for 20 minutes before washing off. Do this twice a day for 15-20 days for best results.
