Lemon masks


Lemon masks

If you want to give your face a real treat, make a lemon facial mask. This type of mask is especially beneficial for oily skin and skin that is prone to breaking out in pimples because the lemon acts as a natural clarifying agent. However, a lemon facial mask will leave you feeling refreshed, pampered and invigorated, no matter what your skin type.

Lemon to balance the pH of the skin, by counteracting acidity on its surface and acts as a very mild natural bleach or lightener on the skin, which enables it to brighten dull skin color and calm redness, as well as the irritation of an inflamed skin.

Lemon and honey hair mask
1/2 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons lemon extract
Juice and pulp of half a lemon
2 tablespoons wheat germ

Mix all ingredients together well. Put the mixture in the sink and pull it through dirty hair, making sure to get the roots and ends. Pull hair back and wait 20 to 30 minutes. Take a hot shower, combing the mixture through your hair. Since this is a treatment and not a conditioner, you'll want to shampoo and condition to remove it all (especially the wheat germ).
