Milk And Honey Facemask

Cleopatra Facemask
Perfect for a night in

Now this recipe is for one person, although facemask are much more fun with friends, so change the recipe according to how many people you want....


Ingredients
Honey ->Any kind will do, but i always use organic
Milk ->Full fat is proabbly better, but whatever you have lying around
Flour ->Plain Flour but i expect it would work with other one

About the mask:
Cleopatra used to claim to bath in ass' milk to stay young, hence the name of this mask...

This mask is moisturising, smell really nice and i find it luxourious!
Out of all my masks it is the simplest to make, so i hope you guys like it

So

1) Take a dessert spoon of honey, and place in a bowl in the microwave, the honey need to be runny with no lumps of sugar, so i would melt even runny honey, but dont leave it too long, just make sure it is smooth and runny, 20 seconds at max

2)Add 1 table spoon of milk to the honey and mix

3)Add as sieved flour untill it is the right consistency for your mask, some people like it thicker, but my way to test it is to put it on your spoon adn i should slowly gloop off, not run off or stay there for more that about 20 secs

Make sure this is warm but not too hot, it should be relaxing and comfortable, This mask can keep for a while, but id through it after a week

Have a fab relaxing evening
