Quick Take

Put on your mask before helping others. That means, if you don't take "me time" you won't have the patience, energy or drive to do so for others. It's important to pamper yourself every once and a while -- mentally and physically. All I'm asking for is 5-15 minutes a day. You can handle that! And these DIY vegan face masks are the perfect way to unwind at home.

All ingredients are 100% plant based and all natural.

Why fruits and veggies in your face mask?

8 DIY vegan face masks for glowing skin

 

 

 

Take Some "Me" Time

A fantastic way to do that is to treat yourself to a face mask and a cup of tea every once and a while. Not only will you feel pampered, beautiful and rejuvenated, but it forces you to sit still for 5-15 minutes while the mask does its magic. Taking the time to do a face mask is, in itself, an act of self-love. The relaxation and revitalized skin is just an added benefit. 

No need to spend the big bucks on harsh chemicals. Save a few hundred bucks and smear these all-natural fruit and veggie blends onto your face for a brighter, cleaner glow. 

Why fruits and veggies in a face mask?

You should not put anything on your skin that you wouldn't eat. After your skin absorbs a chemical, it is processed by the body through the liver. Ingredients like shea butter, coconut oil, and other naturally occurring substances help to nourish the skin while synthetic fragrances and chemicals strain the body. 

On top of all that, fruits and veggies are loaded with antioxidants which prevent skin damage. 

Try these 8 face masks during your daily "me time" or as a family-fun activity at home and see glowing results. Don't forget to put chilled cucumber slices over your eyes!

What to Expect: 
Relief from inflamed skin 
The blurring of fine lines and wrinkles
Increased blood flow which will cause cell turnover
Antioxidants to calm free radicals and prevent future damage 
Glowing, beautiful, nourished skin
