10 DIY Peel-Off Mask Ideas for Glowing Skin and More
Skincare is important not only because it keeps us beautiful and looking young, but also because our skin is the first shield against the elements and infectious bacteria that cause illness. The problem is, most skincare products bought over the counter have chemicals and other ingredients that are detrimental to your health.
This is where DIY masks come in. They are free of compounds found in cosmetics that could do more harm to your skin than good. These are the 10 DIY peel-off mask recipes that can help you with your skin problems at home.
1. Charcoal and Gelatin
Activated charcoal is one of the best compounds to absorb toxins and whiteheads from your skin. This recipe is also simple to make. You’ll only need to powderize the charcoal and mix it with water and gelatin powder.
2. Gelatin, Honey, and Lemon
Combine the acne-healing benefits of lemon and sanitizing effects of honey into your peel-off mask. This recipe is also good for preventing oily skin. The honey’s humectant property will keep your skin moisturized by drawing moisture from within.
3. Orange Gelatin
Orange juice isn’t only limited to boosting your skin’s collagen production and immunity. This citrus fruit also has antioxidants that fight against signs of aging while rejuvenating your skin to have a youthful, bright, and radiant glow.
4. Honey and Turmeric
Turmeric contains a compound called curcumin. It helps in reducing skin inflammations caused by allergies, too much sun exposure, infections, and immune system dysfunctions. In some cases, a turmeric peel-off mask is a good remedy for removing blemishes and dark spots.
5. Honey and Tea Tree Oil
Here’s another acne remedy. Tea tree oil, also known as melaleuca oil, contains terpenes - a compound that’s very effective in destroying Propionibacterium acnes, the bacteria responsible for acne and breakouts.
6. Lemon Juice, Turmeric, and Avocado
If you want a peel-off mask that targets hyperpigmentation problems, this is the recipe for you. For the best results, apply this mask recipe to your face twice a week for five weeks. And don’t forget to wear gloves to prevent your hands from being colored yellow as you mix and apply.
7. Avocado, Coconut, and Lavender Oil
Most peel-off masks only help in moisturizing your skin and that’s just it. This recipe is different. The coconut oil delivers hydration deep into your skin. The monounsaturated fat found in avocados increases your skin’s elasticity. And the lavender oil soothes your skin.
8. Almond Rose
Peel-off masks for hydration vary depending on your skin type. Honey is used in mask recipes to moisturize the skin without promoting the production of oil. However, in this recipe, you’ll use almond milk, rose hydrosol, and plum or almond oil to moisturize dry skin.
9. Orange and Yogurt
Did you know that yogurt helps in reducing fine lines and wrinkles? It also reduces dark circles under your eyes. This peel-off mask recipe will help you stay beautiful with natural products, especially if you’ve been pulling all-nighters because of school and work.
10. Kombucha
Kombucha isn’t just a drink. When applied to your face, it can prevent and alleviate the symptoms of acne and psoriasis. It can also reduce the appearance of scars from pimples and acne while helping your skin be soft and less oily.
Know that some of these ingredients may cause allergic reactions. Always do a patch test of products you aren’t familiar with before mixing your peel-off mask in a bowl and applying it to your face.
Pro tip: If you cannot find gelatin powder, you can also use egg whites as a substitute.
