At Home Peppermint Facial


Peppermint is a mix between watermint and spearmint. This essential oil can help with indigestion, respiratory problems, headache, nausea, fever, stomach and bowel spasms, and pain. Peppermint oil contains numerous minerals and nutrients including manganese, iron, magnesium, calcium, folate, potassium, and copper. It also contains omega-3 fatty acids, Vitamin A and Vitamin C.


Peppermint dissolves excess oil and gives cool refreshing sensation to the skin. It cleans the pores and kills bacteria that cause acne.

Directions:
1- Use pure peppermint essential oil
2- Mix 1 tbsp milk, 1 drop of peppermint oil, 3 tsp distilled water, 2-3 tbsp kaolin to make a soft smooth paste
3- Apply the peppermint mask on your face
4- Relax and let the mask harden
5- After the mask is completely tightened, gently peel and rub off the mask
