Bored On a Wednesday Night

So i'm sitting here on a wednesday night and there really isnt anything to do, so what better to do than to make a facial mask :D Now i say mask, but really it's a scrub/cleanser. I came up with it a couple days ago and i really like it because it has really good benefits and is super easy.

Ingrediants:

Green Tea

 Green tea has lots of antioxidants that prevent free radicals, which once enter the body can damage DNA and the cell membrane (producing cancer, other diseases, and aging skin), from coming into the body by fighting them before they can damage significant molecules. So with that applying green tea on your skin can prevent aging and heal acne while also cleansing the skin. Instead of applying already-to-drink green tea on my face i'll be using the leaves in the scrub to exfoliate the face as well.

Honey
Honey works very well for healing acne (so good for teenagers ;) ) and is a humectant (absorbs moisture from the air) so it attracts and retains moisture, preventing your skin from drying out.

Oatmeal
Now this is the ingrediant that is going to cleanse your face(so you won't even need to wash it before you apply this scrub) but it has many more benefits. Oatmeal is a natural cleanser, so it will remove all dirt from your skin while gently exfoliating, leaving a soft,renewed glow. It also contains antioxidants to protect your skin from free radicals.
                                                

So the first step is to mix on teaspoon of honey in with half of the pre-soaked leaves in a tea bag.  

     

Then you prepare oats. Clench about half a fistful in your hand and run it under lukewarm water until they are very moist. Work the water into the oats with your fingertips and then squezze out all of the excess water. then add it to your green tea and honey and stir.

Now just take the mixture into your hands and massage very gently into your face, avoiding your eyes (*note* i recommend that you do this over your garbage disposer in your kitchen sink so that it doesn't clog up your bathroom sink or bathtub). Then after a minute of gently rubbing it all over your face wash it off. Then apply moisturizer and you are good.

  This was a long post but this facial cleanser will take no time to make. After i washed this off my skin felt very smooth and awakened. So hope you try this because i really liked it, and don't let the pictures prevent you from trying this because this stuff looks really gross, i know, but it works very well. Have a good night.
