Carrot Face Mask
1 Tbsp olive oil – nourishes and cleans the skin
1 lemon – astringent and acidic. This maintains the acid mantel of your skin which keeps in moisture and keeps out germs.
Directions:
- Peal the carrots and steam until soft.
- Mash the carrots into a creamy consistency.
- Mix in 1 tbsp. of all natural honey.
- Stir in 1 tbsp. of olive oil.
- Squeeze a few drops of fresh lemon juice into the face mask mixture. Lemon is a natural astringent and will help clean greasy skin. If your skin tends to dry easily, add only 8 to 10 drops; if you skin tends to be oily, add up to 1 tbsp. of lemon juice.
- Use a spoon to drop small amounts onto your hands and gently massage the mask onto your whole face for several minutes.
- You can keep it on for an additional 5 minutes.
- You can then just wash it off with water in a sink or easier – in the shower.
P.S. This is all food ingredients to after, any that you don’t use on your face – you can eat!
P. S. S. If you go to a spa for this, it could cost $40 – $140!
The lemon juice which is acidic when used topically has an alkaline influence internally because of the specific minerals it contains.

hi
several min. means 15/20 min. right.?
Hi Shameem Correct on the 15-20 minutes. Just be aware though that if you have delicate skin or a very sensitive immune system, even natural, non irritating products have the possibility to create a reaction so just stop if you notice any redness.
Several min means 4-5 minutes and than keep the mask for 5 additional minutes on your face..

Must i use mask? Can’t i apply it directly 2 my face?
Mr. Fritz, don’t you wonder how some people even manage to get out of bed in the morning by themselves?
Thank you for this wonderful cleansing mask recipe.
Hi, thx alot for the free spa lesson, can I apply it directly on my face without a mask.
YES you can! I’m not sure what you mean by mask but it could be good joke!
Thanks for participating!
How long can you keep this in the fridge for before throwing out?
The carrots are the only thing that will break down but that will be fairly quick. The lemon and honey will preserve a bit. I would say only keep it for one or two day. You will have to then reheat it since the olive oil will thicken.
Im sure Archibong didnt know what mask you were talking about. Thank you for the mask recipe. I dif it it works.
After reheat I can put again in fridge for how long I can put in fridge until finish its no problem…
