Strawberry and Lemon Face Pack

If you love fruit face masks, you are going to love this one. Combine mashed strawberries with a tablespoon of yogurt, half a teaspoon of lemon juice, and honey.

Pore Tightening Egg White Face Mask

This is an easy homemade face mask. Add a teaspoon of orange juice and a pinch of turmeric powder to one beaten egg white. Apply this mask to your face. Let it dry for 15 minutes before washing it off.

It might not be summer, but you can still develop rashes and patches that will remain for a long time unless you take good care of your skin. These tips and recipes can help restore your skin’s natural balance and keep it well protected from the African sun.
