Budget Beauty: DIY facemasks

The combination of exam results, miserable weather and work deadlines leaves us all in need of a little pampering. Why splash out on an expensive spa treatment when you can make your own natural face mask for a fragment of the price? For fabulous glowing skin, look no further than your kitchen!

OILY SKIN

Strawberries contain salicylic acid (a product found in many prescribed acne-medicines and products) and the yoghurt is perfect for soothing irritated skin.

INGREDIENTS:

. A few handfuls of fresh stawberries

. 5 tablespoons of non-flavoured yoghurt or sour cream.

Instructions: Firstly, make sure the ingredients are close to room temperature. Then blend the ingredients together (alternatively, mashing with a fork will do) and apply to face. After 10-15 minuites rinse with cool water.

Super soft skin: guaranteed babe magnet

1/2 a ripe Avocado

3 teaspoons of honey

Instructions: Mash the avocado in a bowl, then stir in honey. Apply to skin and leave for 10 minutes. Rinse face with a cold flannel to close pores.
