Homemade Facial Mask Recipes 

Grape Cleanser
The grape cleanser is a naturally refreshing mask and the best part is that it is the easiest mask around and guarantees great results. All you have got to do is peel and split 2-3 grapes and rub the insides of the same onto your face and neck. Wait for a few minutes before washing the mask off with cool water.
 
Lemon Delight
The ‘lemon delight’ mask may not be as convenient as the ‘grape cleanser’, but the results are only that much better. Beat an egg white and squeeze the juice of half a lime into it, mix well and apply the mixture all over your face. The inconvenience begins when you have to let the mask stay overnight. In the morning, wash your face with warm water. This is when every bit of inconvenience caused will seem worth the while. A glowing face is guaranteed for you.
 
Dry Skin Destroyer
For this mask, you will have to mix a teaspoon of butter in a teaspoon of water and apply the resultant mixture on your face. Let the mask stay on for 15-20 minutes before washing off with cold water. With the frequent usage of this ‘mask’, you will learn to realize that dry skin is really not too much of a problem.
 
Oily Skin Annihilator
Opt for this mask if you think your skin is too oily for your liking. Begin by mixing a teaspoon of brewer’s yeast with plain yogurt and applying this mixture on your face. Wait for a good 20 minutes before washing your face with warm water. Follow this up by washing your face with cold water. This helps close the pores on your face.
 
Honeydew For You
Begin by washing your face with warm water. This helps open up pores. Towel dry you face and apply honey all over the same. Let the honey-mask stay on for around half an hour. Just make sure you’re indoors with the mask on and not anywhere too close to a beehive! Wash away the mask with warm water and then cold water to close the pores.
 
Almond And Egg Ecstasy
This mask is a mask ‘carved out’ for the purpose of dealing with dry skin. Beat a single egg and add a teaspoon of almond oil to the same and mix thoroughly. Apply the mixture on your face and leave the same on for around 15 minutes. Then rinse off the mask with cold water to reveal a glowing face. This mask is ideal for people with dry skin and is also noted for the instantaneous results it almost always guarantees.
