Ingredients:

• 2 egg whites
• 
  
• 2 tbsp honey
•

Pep up tired skin with eggs that nourish drained skin and instantly lift and tighten skin. Combine everything into a bowl, apply it for 10 minutes and while it sets, sit down and put your feet up. The mask will exfoliate and hydrate your skin while you relax.

The moisturizer

Ingredients:

• 1 tbsp natural yogurt
• 
  
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 
  
• ¼ ripe avocado

The moisturising ingredients of olive oil and avocado can save dry, flaky skin. Mash ¼ a ripe avocado using the back of a fork and combine the rest of the ingredients to make a thick mixture. Slather a thick coat onto your clean face, and let it settle for 15 minutes. The mask will nourish your skin and make it plump again.

The Calmer

Ingredients:

• 1 tbsp honey
• 
  
• 1 tsp ground nutmeg powder
• 
  
• A handful of blueberries

Stress can lead to irritated skin, and nobody wants red, sensitive blotches on their face. Mix all ingredients in a bowl, spread the mixture over your face, and let it set for 20 minutes. Nutmeg is a great anti-inflammatory ingredient that will calm your skin, while raw honey has anti-bacterial properties, and blueberries are rich in antioxidants.
