Avocado Facial Mask for a Flawless Skin



Materials: ripe avocado, bowl, knife and something to mash with. 1. Have your materials ready accompanied by a napkin. This can get messy! 2. Slice avocado in half.
Yes! That brown thing actually IS an avocado. Turns out it wasn’t that bad on the inside. 3. Scoop out all the insides into bowl; discard skin. 4. Mash (I used a spoon) 5. Yummy, can a girl get some tortilla chips!? 6 & 7. Apply for 15 minutes.The initial application felt cold and soothing at first. Around six minutes in I began to feel a slight burning sensation but nothing unbearable. The aroma of avocado surrounding my face definitely felt strange. 8. Rinse off. Blow excess avocado out of your nose. 9. Pat dry I followed up with a small amount of green tea moisturizer. Can’t you see I’m glowinggg! Later on, my face did feel oilier than normal which began to worry me since I am breakout prone. However, I woke up the next day clearer than when I went to sleep. Success! There are many different avocado mask recipes out there that involve ingredients such as lemon, oil and cucumber. I wanted to try my first time straight up. Maybe I’ll decide to get a little fancier next time. And yes, there will be a next time… I’m thinking once a week. Finger painting your face with chunky green goop might not seem like the average way to enhance beauty, but… who wants to be average anyway?
