    DIY Spot Diminishing Anrti-Aging Mask photo 3Pin

    I use this mask twice a week, and I really like how it is fading my age spots without irritating my delicate, sensitive skin. Also, I like that it is helping with my enlarged pore areas.

    I make a single serving each time because I'm unsure how well it will store in the fridge once mixed. But it is easy to whip up, and I only use it twice a week. I keep a carton of organic egg whites and a lemon in the fridge. Then I always seem to have honey and gelatin packets on hand.

    You could make it without the gelatin. It will still dry and will rinse off easily. So many of the "store bought" spot fading products gave me a rash or breakouts. So I needed to make something gentle but effective. It is a clear mask also, so you won't scare the kids, either.

    I mix them together and apply them to my face and neck. Then I leave it on for 10 to 20 minutes or until it is dry. You will feel it tightening and pulling. Then I rinse with warm water. Then pat dry (never scrub).

    You need not worry about salmonella since the egg white in the carton is pasteurized. Which means they are safe to eat without being cooked. If you use a raw, separated egg, be careful not to get any in your mouth. It is easier and safer to use the carton variety, though.

        You can omit the gelatin. No need to replace.

      Hi Stacey,

      It would be better if you had the idea on how to store it. I like to make more for longer use. I tried this DIY skincare recipe and it does provide a better result with my skin.

        Hi Jenny, you can keep it in a container in the fridge for a couple days, but the egg white is perishable, so it can't keep for very long.

      Hi Stacey,

      Does this treat blackheads too? I have several blackheads and I want to use DIY skincare because I know this is safer compared to other skincare commercial products. There is so many DIY skincare for treating blackheads but I don't find them effective.

        Wendy, I think it should help with blackhead because of the egg white and lemon. I have also had some progress with activated charcoal masks when dealing with blackheads. Also, a little baking soda with honey & lemon scrub can also help with them. I know what you mean though. My son has the most stubborn blackheads around his nose. They seem to to be resistant to most everything!

      I like diy facial mask and now using facial mask with oatmeal, egg and apple. The recipe is very easy and effective. Ingredients: Apple, Egg Yolk, Oatmeal. Blend these 3 ingredients well. Spread the mixture all over your face. Let the mixture stay for about 20-30 minutes. Rinse it off with pure water. You can try this recipe.
