How to Make an Egg White Face Mask

An egg white face mask is a wonderful way to tighten your pores and give your face a temporary lift. Many swear that it is a miracle treatment for acne, blackheads, and other skin ailments. Though some say that it can be a little smelly, it is easy, inexpensive, and an excellent way to help you feel as though you've been treated at a spa.

Things You'll Need

• One egg

Instructions

1. Crack one egg and separate the yolk from the white. Some prefer to whip the egg white to a light foam, but this is not necessary.

2. Using your fingers or a makeup brush, gently rub the egg white over your face and let it dry for about 15 minutes. It will start feel very tight as it dries.

3. An egg white mask cannot be peeled off so you must rinse the face mask off with warm water. You may want to wash your face and/or moisturize with a lotion that contains sunscreen after you remove the mask.

Tips & Warnings

• Some prefer to do the mask right before a shower and rinse it off while in the shower.

• Use organic eggs if you want to avoid any chemicals that might be found in eggs.

• Add a tablespoon of honey if you want to add a moisturizing element to your egg white face mask.

• Do not use an egg white face mask if you are allergic to eggs.
