Rolled Oats Face Mask

Over the years, I realized that the only face masks that I actually want to buy are the ones that smell like heaven or the ones that peel off. So that's what I decided to do because it's close to impossible for me to replicate the exact same scent at home. I also felt a bit uncertain about creating the ones that peel off. But besides those, I make almost every other mask by myself. One, because they're fun (in my opinion), and two, because it's a good way to use up the stuff that's left over in my kitchen. So this is about one of the masks I use in these circumstances. I always manage to find a bit of rolled oats at the bottom of my bag. It's not enough for breakfast and it's too much to throw away, so the first thing I do is use a blender to turn it into a powder consistency; I use the Nutribullet. Then I start adding things that I find. After reading several articles on ingredients that have properties to make your face look stunning, I usually add these things based on the condition of my face on that day. On this particular morning I added some honey and olive oil for moisture. The amount really depends, I don't really have a set measurement for everything. After around ten minutes, I wash off the mask any my face is left soft and glowing. I use this mixture whenever my skins feels a bit dry or under the weather. Good luck and cya later!!
