Homemade Masks for Dry Skin


Dry skin is dehydrated and more prone to wrinkles. Apricots are rich in Vitamin A, which strengthens the skin. Milk and oil act as moisturizers. They also smooth away wrinkles.
Dry skin will also benefit from hydrating masks made from glycerin

1st Recipe:

  • 1. Wash and slice 2 apricots, remove seeds.
  • 2. Mash the fruit, squeeze out 2 softgel capsules Vitamin A and E, add a tsp of oil, and a tbsp of milk.
Apply the mask on your face. Wash away with cool water after 15 minutes.



2nd Recipe:


  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 tsp glycerin (available at drug and beauty stores)
  • Flour - just enough to form a paste
Spread this smooth mixture over the face. Allow the skin to absorb it (15-20 minutes). Rinse face well with warm water, pat dry, and apply moisturizer.
