How To Make a Skin Exfoliating Facial Mask

Exfoliating is the process of removing dead skin cells from the surface of your skin, to keep it healthy young and vibrant. This process has been used for centuries. If you are planning to exfoliate your skin but fear that you may go out of budget, then don’t worry, you can easily make your own skin exfoliating facial mask at home, using a few household items you already have at hand.

The most easy skin exfoliating facial mask you can make at home is the one which includes powdered sugar. Take half-grind sugar. Add water to it to make a thick paste. (If you have an oily skin, you can also add some freshly squeezed lemon juice to it). Rub this paste on your face and neck using your fingers to work the cleanser in small circles. Wash your face first with warm water and then with cold. The cold water will close the pores after the skin exfoliation.

– ¼ Cup Half-grinded sugar
