Jambo!
My mum greeted me with "jambo" a few days ago, in the morning, the conversation went like...
Mum: Jambo!
{Brief Silence}
Me: What I'm I? A tourist?
{Laughter}
Me{singing} : Jambo! Jambo bwana! Habari gani? Mzuri sana!...
{More Laughter}
I'm here today to share with you an easy D.I.Y skincare. As you all know, or maybe you don't, I am a sucker for natural skincare, not only because it's cheap, but because I don't have to worry about the homemade products having a negative effect on my skin.
I have been neglecting my skin lately, but after using this homemade honey and lemon face-mask, my skin feels and looks so much better. Now, because I am a really nice and generous human-being, I just had to share this beauty secret on here :-) ~> {smug smile}
#Note: To prepare your skin before any face mask, pour boiling hot water in a bowl and stand above it letting the steam open your pores.
You'll Need
1/2 Organic Lemon
1 Tablespoon of raw honey ( raw honey has higher antibacterial properties, but regular honey is fine too).
A small mixing bowl
A spoon
Directions
> Put 1 tablespoon of honey into the small bowl
>Squeeze the 1/2 lemon into the bowl
> Stir the mixture completely
>Apply mask to freshly cleansed face, avoiding eye area.
Make sure you don’t exfoliate your skin before adding this mask, because the lemon juice can make it sting. Now let your skin soak up all the goodness for about 20 minutes. Rinse off with lukewarm water and finish with one splash of cold water to close your pores. Pat your face gently with a towel to dry.
You can do this every morning or every night. Apply a good moisturizer afterwards.
