Natural Benefits:
The natural whitening properties of lemon and yogurt help fade the marks that acne leaves behind, while the egg white protein boosts your skin's natural defenses against future wear and tear. The antibacterial benefits of honey soothe the skin - and linger as a relaxing, naturally sweet aroma.

Yield: Approximately 8 applications

Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 4 teaspoons lemon juice (freshly squeezed or bottled)
  • 3 teaspoons plain or Greek yogurt
  • 1 egg white

Instructions:
1. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and whisk until mask thickens.
2. Apply to clean, dry face and let set for 15 minutes. Gently wash off with warm water.

The solution will stay fresh for one week in the refrigerator.
