Hello pretties,
I was really excited when i read about this wonder-working home-made facial recipe and seeing how easy it is to prepare,I decided to share with you guys.Apparently, aspirin is brilliant at spot-treating pimples, clearing up acne and itchy patches. In fact, this aspirin mask has gotten a lot of reviews from people who testify to its efficacy
Prep Time: 7 minutes Total Time: 7 minutes

Ingredients:
  • 1-3 aspirin
  • Coffee cup or glass cup
  • Shallow dish
  • Warm honey (runny honey), moisturizer made for the face or natural oil such as almond, olive or coconut
Preparation:
  • Depending on the amount of coverage needed, use 1-3 aspirin.
  • Crush the aspirin into small pieces by rolling a coffee cup or glass cup over them. Place aspirin in a shallow dish.
  • Stir in a few drops of water to help the aspirin dissolve into a paste.
  • Add warm honey, moisturizer or a bit of oil (almond, olive or coconut works). Stir well.
  • Apply as a mask or spot treat the pimple or itchy area. Allow to dry. Wash off after 10 minutes.
