Make Your Own Moringa Super-Mask At Home!
The healing power of moringa is astounding – either consumed as a powder or capsule, applied topically as an oil, balm or lotion product for inflammation & itchy skin – or used as a powder for a facial mask.
Universally, moringa helps skin and body recover from imbalance and restores health.
You’ll have most ingredient for these facials at home in your fridge or pantry (or can find easily in your local supermarket).
Moringa Probiotic Hydrating Facial
Blend half a tsp moringa powder with 1 tsp plain unsweetened yoghurt, 1 Tbsp mashed ripe avocado and 1/2 tsp honey. Mix well & brush onto your skin for 10 – 15 mins. Add a few pumps of Moringa Healing Serum for very itchy skin.
Brightening AHA Facial Mask
(not suitable for sensitive skin, Indian skin types and some Polynesian skin types. Patch test first if this is you, or use without the pineapple & papaya).
Mash fresh papaya or pineapple (not canned or frozen). If you have papaya, you can strengthen the facial by adding a couple of brushed pips, but be careful of skin sensitivities.
Mix in 1 tablespoon plain unsweetened yoghurt, 1 teaspoon honey & 1 teaspoon moringa powder.
Mix well and apply to skin. For even more oomph, cover the mask with cling film and apply warm towels on top for 5 minutes.
Anti Inflammatory Mask
Grind oats to a very fine powder in a coffee bean or herb grinder. Add 1 tsp moringa powder, up to 1 tsp Moringa Healing Serum, 2 tsp juice from grated cucumber & 1 tsp very finely ground oats. Mix to a paste and apply cold. Leave 8 – 10 minutes and compress off with a cool compress.
