How to Make Oatmeal Face Mask For Glowing Skin

Honestly, it’s so easy to whip up this all-natural face mask. With only 3 ingredients, you’ll have the most powerful and result-producing anti-aging face mask ready in under 3 minutes. Heck, maybe even 2 minutes.

Here are the measurements, but they’re not set in stone. You can make bigger batches of this and keep it in your fridge. I love putting this on my skin, fresh and cold, right out of the fridge. It just feels so darned good!

  • one-quarter cup of yogurt
  • 2 heaping tablespoons of honey
  • 2 tablespoons of oatmeal

You want the consistency to be creamy and slightly thick, not runny. If it is runny, add more oatmeal; if it’s too thick, add more yogurt.

It’s that simple. And this mask is so good you may want to eat it, and you probably could!

How to Use Your Oatmeal Face Mask

Mix all the ingredients together and apply directly all over your face. It will feel ooey gooey, but you’ll get used to it.

Let it sit and dry for about 15-20 minutes. Once it’s completely dried, rinse it off thoroughly with cool water and apply an all-natural toner to your face afterward, or nothing at all; it’s entirely up to you!
