How to Make an Eco-Friendly Face Mask for Oily Skin Using Cucumber

Oily skin? Looking for an eco-friendly do-it-yourself face mask that is cheap, easy will refresh, refine and tone? Look no further, this recipe is sure to please.

Things You'll Need:

* 3/4 of a whole organic cucumber
* 2 1/2 tbsp of plain yogurt
* 2 (small) egg whites (or 1 large egg white)
* small container to store egg yolks
* small container to hold egg whites until needed
* 1 3/4 tsp lemon juice
* blender
* spatula
* small container to hold mask
* face cloth and/or hand towel
* cool or warm water
* a light moisturizer (optional)

Instructions :
  1. Separate 2 small eggs (or 1 large one). Place the yolks (covered) in the refrigerator. Keep the whites nearby in a small container.
  2. Thoroughly wash the cucumber and cut off approximately 3/4 of it.
  3. Put the 3/4 cucumber (with skin) in the blender and puree it. Cucumber skin can be sharp--err on the side of caution when pureeing, and give it an extra minute or so.
  4. Add the plain yogurt, lemon juice and egg whites; continue to puree until the paste is of uniform consistency.
  5. Pour the paste mixture into a container. Use a rubber spatula to pull out what is stuck to the sides.
  6. Unscrew the bottom of your blender and get any remaining mask that may be under the blades out by knocking them firmly and carefully on the container.
  7. If you prefer a chilled mask, place it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  8. Using warm water and a face cloth, give your face and neck a quick wipe to remove any excess oil or dirt.
  9. Apply the cucumber mask to your face and neck with your fingers, avoiding the eyes and hairline.
  10. Wait approximately 25 minutes, then using warm water, rinse it off completely.
  11. Pat dry and apply a light moisturizer (if desired)
