craftgrrlOk, ignore the subject line. I have been meandering around my kitchen and playing with ingredients, and i have discovered the most awesome face scrub/mask in the whole world. It looks hidious but smells oh so good :D
Crazy Kitchen Facemask and scrub:
2 bags of peppermint tea (the stuff in the baggie, not the baggie themselves lol)
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 package of oatmeal
1 piece of celery about 2 inches long
throw all these in a blender, and grind/grate them for a minute till all looks powdery. then:
take 1/4 cup of milk, 1/4 cup of virgin olive oil, 1 tablespoon of almond extract, and one tablespoon of maple syrup. sounds crazy, i know, BUT IT IS OH SO GOOD.
throw those in with the powdery concoction and blend until it looks sort of like a milkshake texture, and pour into a cup that you can throw away.
wash your face with cold water, and then scrub your face with the scrubby stuffs. leave it on for 20 seconds, then take another layer of the concoction and put it on your face like you would a mask. IT tingles, smells awesome, tightens and cleans the skin, (especially for those acne prone like me) and does wonders for everything you need done on your face all in one.
Leave this on for 20 minutes, relax and watch tv or read a book, just RELAX. It does look like a witch's face out of a horror film from the 60's, but I promise you, it is just that awesome.
Let it dry and then rinse your face with warm to hot water, or cold if you prefer, and pat dry.
