Banana Honey Moisturizing Mask

We all know that bananas are a kind of tropical fruit in the south. The bananas eaten in the north are usually transported from the south, and they are picked when they are not ripe in Xiangjiang River. If they are transported to the north, they will go bad if they are ripe. The shelf life of bananas is relatively short. Many people use bananas and honey to make moisturizing masks. So how to make such masks?

Ingredients: Half a banana (a banana that is about to rot is better), 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of honey

Equipment: measuring spoon, metal spoon, bowl

Method: Mix honey and banana and mash them into a paste with a spoon.

Usage: After cleansing the skin, apply the mask on the face for 10-15 minutes, then rinse with warm water. It can be used every day.

Hydrating and nourishing. Bananas are a common and cheap fruit in tropical regions, but their nutritional value is quite high. Bananas are rich in protein, starch, vitamins and minerals, especially potassium, which makes them a very good food for people with cardiovascular diseases. For the skin, bananas are also a good mask material. Simply mashing the bananas into a paste and applying it on the face has the effect of gently cleansing, nourishing and repairing the skin. I also added honey to this mask to enhance its moisturizing function, which is very suitable for daily use on dry and dehydrated skin.

Skin care principles

Honey has strong moisturizing properties and can absorb moisture from the air, which can effectively prevent the evaporation of moisture on the surface of the skin.

The nutrients in honey are all natural nutrients. Its monosaccharides, vitamins, enzymes and other biologically active substances are easily absorbed by skin cells and can effectively improve the nutritional status of the skin surface. Honey contains a variety of acids, which have strong bactericidal effects, in addition to its moisturizing and nourishing effects.

practice

1. Use a small spoon to mash the bananas into a paste in a bowl (note that you need to mash them quickly, otherwise the bananas will turn black and that will be bad)

2. Pour in milk and honey as soon as possible after crushing. The amount of milk should be enough to cover the bananas. Stir with a spoon to make it evenly mixed. Don't make it too thick.

3. Then use a cotton pad or your hands to apply the mask directly on your face. (Note: You don’t need to leave it on your face for a while like a normal mask. Just apply it with your hands and massage it like you would a facial cleanser. It will feel soft and comfortable when you massage.)

4. Finally, be careful not to wait until it dries on your face before washing it off. As long as you feel the massage is finished and you feel comfortable, you can wash it off. Otherwise, it will be difficult to wash off after the banana dries.
