How to Make a Herbal Facial..




    • 1
      Cleanse your face thoroughly before you begin, making sure all makeup is removed.
    • 2
      Combine 1 egg white, 1 tbsp. dry milk, 1 tsp. honey and 1/4 tsp. of an herb such as chamomile flowers, fennel, parley, lemongrass or mint leaves.
    • 3
      Whisk or blend at low speed for 2 minutes, or until mixture is creamy.
    • 4
      Apply to face and throat.
    • 5
      Let the mask set for 15 minutes. Sit back and relax.
    • 6
      Rinse the mask off entirely with warm water.

Tips & Warnings

  • To make a honey mask, replace these ingredients with 1 tsp. honey, 1 tsp. finely ground fennel seed, 1 tsp. olive oil and 1 egg yolk. Follow the steps above, but leave it on your face for 30 minutes before washing.
  • After you cleanse and before you apply the mask, you may want to steam your face to eliminate toxins (see "Give Yourself a Facial," under Related eHows). Steam your face for 8 to 10 minutes and then apply the mask.
