Skin care from the inside
Mixing masks together is not witchcraft and is also easy on the wallet. Here are some ideas that you can try out. Healing earth against oily skin: Mix healing earth with water to a thick mass and spread it on the face.
After 10-15 minutes the mass can be washed off. Moisturizing mask with avocado: For this mask, mix half an avocado, a tablespoon of curd cheese and a teaspoon of olive oil. An additional teaspoon of honey is optional and should soothe the skin.
Apply the mask to the washed face and rinse off after half an hour with lukewarm water. Coffee grounds for more awake skin: If one mixes 5 teaspoons of coffee grounds with one teaspoon of olive oil and honey each, one gets a revitalizing mask, which works by the coffee at the same time like a peeling. Spread the mixture on the clean face and after 30 minutes wash it off with clear water.
The skin appears fresher and is better supplied with blood by the peeling.

If you are struggling with dry lips, you can help with normal honey. This should be spread on the lips and allowed to work for a few minutes. Then wash the honey with water.
Please do not lick the lips during this process, as the saliva dries the lips again. You can find more ideas under: Household remedies against dry lips
A steam bath works wonders on the skin. The heat opens the pores and dissolves all the dirt.
Alternatively, extracts such as camomile can be added to the hot steam bath. If there is no camomile extract in the house, you can also add a tea bag to the hot water. The humid heat is good for the face and also for the mucous membranes of mouth and nose, but it dries out the eyes, so you should keep your eyes closed and you can take a few breaks.
There are numerous recipes for peelings on the Internet. You can mix sugar and oil together to a thick mass. Otherwise, you can also use honey and curd cheese or coffee grounds.
Peelings cleanse the skin intensively and remove dead skin cells. However, a daily application should be discouraged, because the healthy skin cells are attacked. You can apply a peeling every one to two weeks, depending on your skin type.
