Recipe

• Egg yolk – 1
• Olive oil – 1/2 teaspoon
• Honey – 1 teaspoon
• lemon Juice – 1 teaspoon

Sensitive skin beauties may avoid lemon juice as it may irritate their skin. With a ph value of 2, lemon juice may cause pigmentation and make your skin sensitive to the sun. I did the same for my normal sensitive skin.

Honey is antiseptic and antibacterial and hence it helps to bring down pimple swelling. It prevents acne and provides hydration to the skin

Olive oil, There is nothing much to be said except it is known as ‘Natures Own Botox’. It helps seal moisture and makes our skin soft. Olive oil has antibacterial properties.

Lemon juice is antiseptic and a good astringent. It also has antioxidants too. Lemon juice is suited for oily skin.

My Experience

As you can see below, I have used a Cotton Sheet Mask for this face pack. The egg yolk face pack dries quickly so i thought applying this way makes it way more effective and less stretchy. You may remove the sheet mask after 30 minutes or so. It isn’t messy to wash off the left over face pack too.

Compressed sheet masks are good for applying the milk powder face pack too. Compared to other DIY face packs, Milk powder face pack was kind off difficult to wash off when it dries completely.

This egg yolk face pack does moisturise and nourish my skin. It has a non oily dewy look which i prefer. The skin appears clean, soft, supple and clear. As this is an anti ageing face pack i have yet to notice such benefits. If you add turmeric and lemon juice, you may see faster results in terms of acne and skin brightening.

You may use the egg yolk scrub that i have shown below too. Egg yolk and coffee helps exfoliate, brighten and soften fine lines. The ingredients are antioxidant rich and hence helps prevent the signs of ageing to an extent. 🙂

With sunscreen and drinking lots of water, your skin texture and tone may improve. I have tried adding blended banana to this face pack and it works beautifully too.

Overall this is a perfect face pack for dull lifeless skin.

• Egg yolk – 1
• Ripe Banana/Avocado – 1/4
• Yogurt – 1 teaspoon

Yogurt helps to eliminate the bacteria and hence prevents acne.
Banana which has antioxidants helps neutralise free radicals and thus prevents and delays the signs of ageing.
Avocado has healthy fats that moisturises our skin leaving it soft and supple.

• Egg yolk –  1
• Turmeric – 1/2 teaspoon

Turmeric helps with acne scars and treats acne over time. It is antioxidant and antiinflamatory which is why it helps soothe the skin. Turmeric helps heal wounds and clear your skin. It is known to promote collagen.
This face pack may help in reducing under eye bags too.

Egg Yolk Scrub Recipe

• Egg Yolk – 1
• Coffee Powder – 1 teaspoon
• Honey – 1 teaspoon
• Lemon juice – 1 teaspoon

Dry and mature skin may certainly add any oil that is suited for your skin to provide adequate hydration. I add olive oil and stay away from lemon juice to suit my skin.

Coffee is antioxidant rich and therefore it helps to slow down the ageing process. It also helps to unclog pores, brighten skin tone, promotes cell repair and softens lines and wrinkles.

• Egg Yolk – 1
• Oats powder – 1 tablespoon
• Honey – 1 teaspoon

Oats help create a protective barrier against harmful irritants and hence help soothe the skin. It also helps to lock moisture thus providing a dewy look to the skin. Oats is good for maintain our skin’s healthy ph and get clear skin.

Adjust the recipes accordingly to suit your skin. Stay away from these face packs in case you are allergic to any of the ingredients.

Have a Good Day 🙂
