A lot of people ask me, "What is the best type of mask to use if you've gotten a lot
of sun at the beach one day, or if you just have too much sun damage in general?" The
best ingredients for that are the ingredients in this next mask.
So we are going to use a third of a cup of yogurt, preferably organic and of course plain.
We're going to use a quarter-cup of honey. I like it warmed, because it's a little bit
easier to work with. And we are also going to do two teaspoons of olive oil. It's actually
a great skin softener, and it's also an anti-inflammatory.
So whether you have a really bad sunburn, or you have skin that's a little bit rough
and dry and weathered-looking because you've taken in too much sun over the years, this
is a great mask for you.
So I'm just going to add in our yogurt, and we're going to mix this together. The honey
is very hydrating for the skin, and for those of you who had recent sunburns, you know that
the first thing that you feel is that your skin gets really tight and uncomfortable-looking.
So the honey's going to help you with that. The yogurt is actually going to cool down
the sunburn and make it start to heal faster. And the olive oil is going to soften your
skin and bring down inflammation.
And you're just going to apply a really thin layer to the surface of the skin. It doesn't
have to be really thick. It's extremely cooling for the skin. You're going to feel the cold
of the yogurt, which will be really nice if you have a sunburn. But even if you just have
sun damage and sort of a leathery texture to your skin, this is going to be feeling
cold to you, but also the olive oil is going to really penetrate through that kind of leathery
skin and really make it soft again.
When you take this mask off, whether you just have sunburn or you have, you know, sun-damaged
skin over time, this mask is going to absolutely transform your skin. You won't believe the
results. You're just going to be glowing. You're going to be dewy again. You're going
to look like you have new skin.
