This Week’s Plans: Homemade Facial Masks
Take the time this week to become an at-home skin care specialist. Get crafty, and try making homemade facial masks. Depending on your skin’ condition, you should use skin care masks that will counterbalance your skin’s condition or help 
with any other skin problems you are facing. Keep reading for some at home recipes I found in my beauty book collection: Secrets of the Spas by Catherine Bardey. This useful read showed me how to stir up masks in my kitchen, and tailor it to my skin’s condition.
