OVERVIEW:
This video shows you how to concoct one of my all time favorite face masks. I mainly use this mask in the summer because it gives my skin such a smooth, bright, summer glow. This mask is NOT to be used for daily use, just like any other exfoliator it should be used sparingly; once weekly for example. 

INGREDIENTS:
1 tsp of Apple Cider Vinegar
2 tsp of Green Tea
5 tbsp of Sugar
1 tbsp of Honey
OPTIONAL: add 2 more tbsp of Sugar to thicken

DIRECTIONS:
Mix together completely and then transfer to a jar and store in fridge. 
Can be stored up to 2 weeks. Make sure face is thoroughly cleansed before applying the mask.
When applying the mask use a cotton ball or cotton pad, this will absorb the watery parts of the mask and make transferring the mask to your face much easier. The mask can be a bit messy, so make sure to apply it somewhere you can easily clean it up; i.e. the bathroom or the kitchen.
GENTLY massage the mask all over your face, excluding the eye area, with the tips of your fingers for 2-3 minutes, 5 minutes maximum. Then, let the mask sit on your face for 10 minutes. After ten minutes rinse the mask from your face while gently exfoliating. Then pat your face dry with a soft towel, DO NOT RUB.

HONEY
Moisture: Honey is a natural humectant, meaning it draws moisture from the air into the skin and ensures it's retained it in the layers where it’s needed most for penetrating, long-lasting hydration. 
Cleansing: Honey is loaded with antioxidants, enzymes, and other nutrients that nourish, cleanse skin. 
Acne Scar Fader: Honey is said to lighten skin, and its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial compounds help to decrease the appearances of scars and increase healing and tissue regeneration.
