At home facials

Since my recent beauty post, I've been getting quite a few requests for my at-home facial recipe. So here it is...

• 1 tbsp oatmeal, finely ground
• 1 tbsp organic yogurt (not flavored)
• A few drops of honey

Mix together, apply to face and leave on for 10 minutes. Wash off with lukewarm water, then follow up with a washcloth to remove dead skin. Pat face to dry and apply your regular daily moisturizer. Your face will feel silky smooth and wonderful!

This facial is for all skin types! Enjoy, Leslie
