Top 5 Bath Time DIY Face Masks

When it comes to tub time, we take it seriously. We believe that when you are soaking in your zen zone, it should be the bath product you choose, the setting that envelops you, the libation you sip; and finally, the extra beauty add ons that make tub time so rejuvenating.

With so many DIY recipes out there for face masks, it’s hard to know what truly is beneficial for your skin, and what ones simply aren't worth the mess. Well, we have tried and tested and chose our top 5 to share with our beloved bathers.  

Avocado + Honey Face Mask

Have dry skin? This one is for you!

  • 1/2  one  very ripe avocado
  • 2 tablespoons organic honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon organic coconut oil
  • 1 tablespoon plain greek yogurt

Mash or puree the avocado until it’s smooth and creamy. Blend in the rest of the ingredients. Apply to your face, avoiding your eyes, and leave it on for 10-15 minutes. Wipe your skin clean with a damp, warm cloth, or simply shower at the end of your bath!

Papaya + Citrus Face Mask

A refreshing treat for fuller/aged skin type

  • 1/2 a ripe papaya—peeled, seeded, and sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon orange zest
  • 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
  • 1/4 teaspoon lemon juice

Puree the papaya in a food processor or blender until just mashed evenly, and then blend in the other ingredients by hand. Spread over your face, rubbing gently in a circular motion to exfoliate- avoiding your eyes, and let it sit for 10-15 minutes. Wipe or rinse your face completely. Pat to dry.

Trouble Skin Prone Mocha Face Mask

Suitable for sensitive skin types

  • 2 tablespoons freshly ground coffee
  • 2 tablespoons pure cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 3 tablespoons greek yogurt or sour cream
  •  

    Blend all of the ingredients together, spread evenly over skin, and allow it to sit for about 10-20 minutes. Caffeine in this mask tightens skin and removes excess oil from your skin.

    Redness Reducing Face Mask

    A lifesaver for burnt skin, Rosacea or uneven pigment skin

    • 2 tablespoons dry instant oatmeal
    • 2 tablespoons plain, unsweetened Greek yogurt
    • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
    • 1 teaspoon honey
    • 3 tablespoons strong-brewed green tea (or red Rooibos tea)

    Blend the first 4 ingredients in a bowl, and add 3 tablespoons hot, strong tea to the mixture. Stir regularly for a few minutes, adding tea as needed until you’ve created a thick paste. Apply it to your face and let sit for 10-15 minutes, then wipe clean gently with a damp cloth. Rinse with cool-to-warm water, but do not use soap, and pat dry gently. We applied this to our arms, chest and shoulders while tub soaking- silky soft skin!

    Egg Yolk + Olive Oil Face Mask

    Oily skin type? This will be your new favourite!

    • 1 egg yolk
    • 3 tablespoons ground instant oatmeal
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    • ½  tablespoon honey
    • ½ tablespoon coconut oil

    Blend all ingredients together, apply liberally to face and neck area. Leave the mask on for 15-20 minutes then rinse. Pat to dry.
