Ingredients:
½ Ripe Peach (on the softer side in terms of tenderness)
1 Tablespoon Heavy Cream or Organic Whole Milk
Prep:
Peel the peach then mash the flesh of the fruit in a mixing bowl with a fork until it has a smooth consistency. Pour in the heavy cream and combine until blended well. Apply the face mask to your face and neck. Please note that you should wear a towel draped around your neck during this treatment because the paste can run a bit. Leave the face mask on your skin for 30 minutes then rinse off with warm water or better yet in the shower! After drying gently with a soft towel, apply an oil-free moisturizer to retain moisture in your skin.
Benefits:
Peaches are packed with antioxidants and Vitamins A and C which are great for your skin. This mask is beneficial for anyone that suffers from dry or damaged skin due to environmental reasons or from acne.
Vitamin A can help prevent skin cancer while Vitamin C repairs damaged skin from too much sun. Our bodies use Vitamin C to replace damaged skin tissue with scar tissue. Wounds and sores heal faster and more effectively when the proper amount of Vitamin C is flowing through our bodies. Vitamin C assists in the production of collagen and will make your skin more tight and firm. Collagen production is vital for repairing collagen in bones, tendons, and ligaments as well. Collagen production will aid in securing a strong foundation for blood vessels which assist in carrying oxygen and vital nutrients to keep your skin looking healthy and beautiful. Say hello to radiant skin!
Heavy cream or whole milk is ideal for dry or irritated skin due to topical creams, inflamed and painful acne, or just dry skin in general. Consider heavy cream a moisture drink for your skin. It will not clog your pores or make you breakout more so don’t worry about that! Give your skin the nourishment it is craving and your skin will feel so smooth and soft after you’re done with this mask!
