Hey everyone! I’m excited to share with you this effective homemade face mask with just 3 ingredients that you have in your kitchen that works wonders in clearing clogged pores, especially the pesky whiteheads on the nose. I’ve been using this DIY facial mask for as long as I can remember, and it has never let me down. I can’t wait to show you how to make it so you can enjoy its benefits too!
INGREDIENTS
- 1 egg white
- 1 tbsp. of baking soda
- Juice of a lemon
IMPORTANT (Must read this before applying this wonderful mask to eliminate pores)
It is crucial to avoid sun exposure after applying this homemade mask that cleans pores and contains lemon juice. To stay safe, apply this mask at night before going to bed, and make sure to wear sunblock the following morning. In fact, it’s recommended that you apply sunblock to your face as part of your daily makeup routine. Combining citrus and sun can cause a chemical reaction known as Phytophotodermatitis. This can result in discoloration, burns, and blisters on your skin. I’m sharing these facts to ensure you take necessary precautions and protect your skin from sun exposure after applying the mask.
PROCEDURE
Whisk together the white egg and baking soda using a fork. While continuing to mix, gradually add in the lemon juice. You’ll know that the mask is ready for application when its consistency is similar to that of spreadable jelly on bread. It shouldn’t be too watery or too dry to smear. Stop adding lemon juice once you achieve the desired consistency.
APPLICATION
Gently apply the mask onto your face, making sure to focus on your nose and chin. Let it sit until it’s completely dry.
Remove dry mask with warm water.
Apply moisturizer and sunblock (yes, even when it is night time, apply sunblock just in case)
Enjoy your fresh and deeply clean skin without white heads.
Apply moisturizer and sunblock as usual next morning
Repeat mask every month for a deep cleaning.
