There are two common types of face masks people might ask about: skincare face masks and protective face masks (like for health safety). Here are simple DIY instructions for each:
Skincare Face Mask (DIY)
- Mix natural ingredients such as:
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon natural yogurt or Greek yogurt
- Optional additions: turmeric powder, mashed avocado, oats, or mashed banana
- Apply the mixture evenly on clean skin.
- Leave it on for about 10-20 minutes.
- Rinse with warm water and follow your skin care routine.
Honey is moisturizing and antibacterial, yogurt provides lactic acid for gentle exfoliation, and turmeric helps with pigmentation.
Simple Fabric Face Mask (No Sewing)
- Use clean fabric such as an old cotton t-shirt or cloth.
- Cut cloth to size: around 9x6 inches for adults.
- Use rubber bands or hair ties as ear loops.
- Fold and secure the fabric with the bands on each side to make pleats.
- Wear covering nose and mouth snugly.
- Wash mask after each use.
This method requires no sewing and provides basic face coverage.
