I’ll let you in on a little skin-saving secret of mine, which doens’t seem to be much of a secret anymore since everyone has been raving about it.

Whenever I’d get occasional stress/hormonal breakouts, this scrub/mask has always saved the day. It’s also a great treatment for acne-prone skin.

It’s super easy to do at home and most likely you have everything needed in your pantry already.

You will need: Uncoated Aspirin + Pure Honey + Few drops of water

I usually use 2-3 Aspirin pills for one session

Add few small drops of water to Aspirin so that it starts to dissolve into a grainy paste.

Add some honey (enough to hold the paste together and to allow an easy application to face)

Mix everything together. You’re ready to apply the mask to your face!

Leave it on for 10-15 minutes, then scrub your face before rinsing the mask off with warm water.

Follow with your favorite toner and moisturizer. The most effective acne-fighting scrub you will ever need!

Why Aspirin? It contains salicylic acid, which helps to clear clogged pores and reduce oil production.

Why Honey? It’s naturally anti-bacterial, so it’s great for healing and preventing acne.

It’s also very moisturizing and helps in opening up pores for easy unclogging.

You shouldn’t use this mask every day to avoid skin irritation.

But few times a week would definitely help to control your breakouts.

Hope this works for you as well as it does for me!
