Yummy Strawberries!

My auntie stopped by to bring us some fresh yummy strawberries from her farm. Ah... I love locally grown fruits and veggies; so I was super thrilled to see a giant bowl filled with strawberries. I don't think I can finish them all before they go bad and, I'd hate to freeze them; so instead... I think I'll put them on my face!

 

Did you know strawberries are excellent for face mask/cleanser? They're full of antioxidants and they have salicylic acid which is great for scrubbing off dead skin cells on the face. Here's a simple DIY strawberry face mask below:

5-10  organic strawberries w/their tops off and halved
3 spoonful of organic honey 

In a bowl; mash strawberries and add honey (don't mash too much or else it will be too runny) with a clean face just apply the mixture and leave on for 10-15 mins and then rinse off. Enjoy!

Ahh... I think I'll make some strawberry iced tea to go along with my strawberry face mask? My skin is in much need of some TLC from all the dry/hot weather we've been having.

  1. Wouldn't that be a waste of some prefectly juicy strawberries if you put them in your face. Why not stuff your face instead? Haha
