Beauty - Skincare
I love skincare just as much as I makeup. I believe it is important to have a clean canvas before you begin applying paint, so I take pride of caring for my skin. One of the ways I do that is with regular face masks.
I first tried this face mask 5/6 years ago when I was living in the French Alps and my skin was suffering from the harsh weather. It's incredibly hydrating, leaves your skin feeling amazing, and best of all it's super easy to make! All you need is three ingredients, avocado, Greek yoghurt and honey. Oh and a sprinkle of magic!
Keep reading to find out how you can make this mask too!
What you’ll need:
¼ Avocado (Top tip: blanch your avocado before cutting it up so the mask stays green for longer)
3tbsp Greek yoghurt
1tbsp honey
An empty container with a lid
Firstly, I always blanch my avocado before chopping it up for the mask. How does one do that you ask? Listen up:
Bring a saucepan of water to the boil
Gently place the avocado in and leave it for 15 seconds
Remove it using a slotted spoon and place it into a blow of ice cold water
Now it’s ready to be turned into face food!
Method:

Method:
Using a fork, mash up the avocado until it’s as smooth as possible. It should look something like the photo below.
Add the mashed avocado to the honey. Then add the Greek yoghurt and mix!
Viola, there you have it! M’s magic mask.
You can either use it right away or store it in the fridge ready to be used later. This mask can be kept for 3/4 days.
You skin will thank you! :)
