Almond, Honey, Milk and Aloe Mask

The news is in, at 7:25 this morning groundhog Phil saw his shadow. Which means… tun tun tun… six more weeks of winter.

Just when we thought this dry winter spell was almost over the groundhog had to go and ruin it for us! Don’t fret, we have a solution! We understand that with cold, dry weather comes dry, itchy skin, and we’re here to help.

We have an awesome at home face mask recipe that was specially designed by Margo Marrone, owner of Organic Pharmacy in London, to cure all of your dry skin woes.

Here’s what you’ll need:

1 teaspoon of organic powdered milk
1 tablespoon of organic ground almonds
1 tablespoon of organic honey
1 teaspoon of organic aloe vera gel
2 drops of neroli essential oil

Preparation:

In a small bowl, mix the powdered milk with the ground almonds, then add the honey and aloe vera. Once everything is mixed together add the two drops of neroli essential oil. Now your facemask is ready to use!

*This mixture makes two to three treatments and will last up to two weeks if stored in the refrigerator.

Application:

Apply the mixture to your face and leave on for 10 to 15 minutes to achieve optimum hydrating effects.
