Step-by-Step Guide To Make A Face Mask

• Grind the rolled oats into a fine powder. In a clean bowl, combine the finely ground oats with the melted coconut oil.
• Add honey and yoghurt if you are using them. Stir everything very well until you have a smooth and creamy texture.
• Before applying the mask, gently cleanse your face and neck with a mild, hydrating cleanser. Pat your skin dry. 
• Using clean fingers, apply an even layer of the mask all over your face and neck, carefully avoiding the delicate eye and lip areas.
• Leave the mask on for 15-20 minutes. Take this time to relax and allow the ingredients to deeply nourish your skin.
• Now, gently massage the mask in circular motions as you rinse. The oat particles will provide a very mild and gentle exfoliation.
• Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and apply the moisturiser to lock in the hydration.
• For best results, use this face mask once or twice a week to see the results. This face mask will help you soothe dryness and make your skin supple.
