Home made masks for each skin type
MAYONNAISE
Apply whole egg mayonnaise on your face (right from the jar) for about 20 minutes. Rinse with cool water. Great skin care treatment.
PEACH & BRANDY
Mash up a peach (use ripe, canned or frozen) and mix in a tablespoon of brandy. Leave it on for 20 minutes, then rinse off. Great for dry skin.
TOMATO MASK
For oily skin, mash up a ripe tomato and leave it on for 15 to 20 minutes. Rinse with warm (not hot) water.
BANANA MASH
Mash up a very ripe banana. Add just enough honey to make a soft pulp. Apply over face and hair. This is such a great firming mask that aging movie stars have been known to put it in the cups of their bras to make their breasts "perky." (Just make sure that you don't use too much honey and you use a sturdy bra.)
HONEY MASK
Apply pure honey (straight from the bottle) to your face and neck. Allow it to set until dry (about 15 minutes). Rinse with very warm water. Great for dry skin.
MILK OF MAGNESIA
Apply it straight from the bottle. Let it dry for about five to ten minutes. Rinse off with warm water, then gently pat your face dry with a fluffy towel.
PEPTO BISMOL
This is a face mask particularly suited for those with sensitive skin. In the same way that this product coats the stomach, it gently caresses the face. Apply it straight from the bottle, using a cotton swab. Allow to dry, then rinse with cool water.
Two homemade treatments that will put a rosy glow on your face.
1. Boil fresh rose petals and use this rose water instead of plain water for your skin treatments.
2. Prepare a rose facemask by grinding a handful of petals into a paste. Apply on clean skin and leave the application on for 15 to 25 minutes. Then wash with plain water (no soap). Your complexion will be smooth and glowing

I LOOOOOOVVVEEE the aspirin mask!!! Cheap, easy, and effective!!!
Also, plain egg yolk beaten then applied to the face is great for oily skin. It feels kind of tight as it dries, then you have to rinse with warm water/washcloth.
LSM - is that your horse??? He is *so* cute! Is he an Arabian? It's kind of hard to tell from the pic.
