Banana mask :) for beauty to increase more

What works for so many years should work brilliantly today and the benefits of banana creams go beyond enhancing the visual appeal. Rich in antioxidants and minerals, it speeds the healing process and also serves a clinical purpose by mitigating the effects of warts, acne and even psoriasis. You can forget about those nasty itches that prevent the skin from healing completely, because this face mask also deals with that burning sensation of itching.

If you’re lucky enough not to suffer from any skin disease and you have no use for such a mask to alleviate the effects of mosquito bites or allergies, you can still use bananas to look several years younger. The face mask recipes will only set you back a couple of dollars, which is considerably less than what a cosmetic procedure costs. In terms of time, the investment is also minimal because in a matter of minutes you can create your homemade facial mask in a shoestring and apply it for several days in a row.

Banana Face Mask For Dry Skin

1 egg yolk
2 teaspoons of sweet almond oil (you can substitute it with coconut oil or olive oil)
1 ripe mashed banana

Why These Ingredients?

Banana – Rich in vitamins A, B and E, bananas are a great natural anti-aging ingredient (Vitamin A increases cell turnover while Vitamin E soothes and moisturizes). Acids from the banana also exfoliate dead skin.

Almond Oil - Almond oil has been the best kept secret to sooth dry skin, grow thick long hair and strong nails, get rid of the dark circles around the eyes and even prevent stretch marks!

Why egg yolk? Eggs contain vitamin B2, vitamin B3 and zinc. Vitamin B2 can help alleviate stress, which is a known contributor to acne. Vitamin B3 aids with circulation, which can help skin look and feel healthier. Zinc boosts the immune system. This can help acne heal and even prevent future breakouts. In addition, eggs contain vitamin A, which is beneficial for scarring.
