Today I wanted to talk a little bit about love and Valentines! This month is the time to embrace one another and love each-other. You don't have to have a boyfriend or girlfriend to love but it can even be a family member. Show your thanks to somebody and tell them how much they mean to you even if you're just friends. This month I like to take the time to write a letter to everybody I know and tell them how much they mean to me. This month is my birthday is coming up so I'm super excited about that. Anyway, off the subject about me LOL. I wanted to share this rose petal facial for the gals and a mud mask for the guys for When you're getting ready to go on that special date or just hang out!
Rose Petal Facial for the gals!- The rose petal face mask is soothing to the skin, and the petals have antiseptic properties, destroying bacteria that can cause acne flare-ups. With a handful of roses you can make yourself your own rose petal mask.
Rip the petals from the roses and shred into pieces. Measure out 1/8 cup of petals. Set aside.
Put 1/3 cup of the rolled oats into a food processor. Using the "pulse" feature, grind the oatmeal for a few seconds until it resembles a coarse flour.
- Add rose petals to the oatmeal in the food processor. Pulse again for 10 seconds
- Add two teaspoons of rose water, and then 1/4 cup of honey to the rose petals and oatmeal mixture. Pulse for 10 seconds. If you have a difficult time getting the mixture to blend well in your food processor, you can mix it vigorously by hand, or try it in a blender. Often larger food processors don't work well for small mixing small amounts of ingredients.
- Apply the rose petal mixture to your face and allow it to stay on for 30 minutes. Rinse off with warm water and gently towel your skin dry.!
Mud Mask for guys- Mud Mask for guys might sound silly. If you are battling dry skin or acne and you wanna look good for your date or friend I recommend doing this!
You can enjoy all the benefits of a mud facial mask at home anytime. The ingredients are readily and inexpensively available at your local health food store.
Mix French clay and kaolin clay together. If using the powder forms of clay, mix with water until smooth. Green clay can be substituted for French clay.
Add aloe vera gel, rosewater and oil and stir until mixture becomes a thick paste.
Cleanse skin with facial soap and warm water. Pat dry.
Smooth mud mask over face starting with sides of the face and forehead.
Allow mask to dry on face between 10-15 minutes.
Rinse your face with warm water and pat dry.
Refrigerate remaining mask for up to four weeks and apply once a week.
