Moisturizing Egg Facial Mask
Moisturizing Egg Facial Mask
Eggs are loaded with vitamins that can help to replenish the moisture in your dry facial skin. This mask also includes honey and olive oil, which are also believed to help keep your skin moisturized. Mix the yolk of 1 egg with 1 tablespoon of honey. Once you have blended these two ingredients together well, stir in 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Before you apply the mask wash your hands and face. Apply the mask to your face and neck. Leave it on for 30 to 45 minutes. Rinse using warm water, and gently pat dry with a soft towel. Although this is very gentle on your skin, it should not be used more than once a week.

DIY Citrus Cleaner ~
Save money on household cleaning sprays and make your own natural solution.
Add orange peels (or any citrus peel) to a quart of white vinegar in a closed container and let it set for two weeks. Combine citrus-vinegar solution with half water in a spray bottle and use for cleaning. Works on floors, tiles, fixtures, kitchen & bath etc. It’s antibacterial, smells good and tough on scum! Best of all there are no chemicals.
