Vaseline
Lemon juice (fresh)
Honey
How It Works: This combination creates a clarifying mask that can help brighten the complexion and improve overall skin tone. Lemon juice contains natural acids that can help exfoliate and brighten, while honey provides antibacterial properties and additional hydration.
The Vaseline component helps to seal in the beneficial ingredients and prevent the skin from drying out during treatment.
How To Use:
Mix one tablespoon of Vaseline with 1/2 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice and one teaspoon of honey.
Apply to clean, dry skin as a mask, avoiding the eye area.
Leave on for 15-20 minutes.
Rinse thoroughly with warm water.
Use once or twice weekly for best results.
Pro Tip: Lemon juice can increase sun sensitivity, so always apply sunscreen after this treatment and preferably use it in your evening routine.
Important Considerations
Patch Test First: Before applying any of these mixtures to larger areas of skin or sensitive areas like the face, do a patch test on your inner wrist and wait 24 hours to check for any adverse reactions.
