Aloe vera and lemon juice are both rich in vitamins A, C and E - together they make one fantastic pack. In this mask the succulent's healing superpowers clear skin while reducing inflammation and pain, while the lemon juice's mighty citric acid acts as natural exfoliant that gently peels away the top layers of dead skin - taking pigmentation and acne scars along with them.

Ingredients

Directions

Step 1
Cut two aloe vera leaves from the base of your plant, Slice off the pointy edges, then chop the leaf into 2-3 inch sections. Once you've opened up the leaf, use a knife to extract the gel. It's okay if you get some pulp too.
Step 2
Cut the lemon in half, and squeeze the juice out of one half, then mix the liquid with gel and honey in a blender. Blend for 1 minute. Transfer to a small bowl
Step 3
Apply the mixture directly to your face and neck, and leave on for between 10 and 15 minutes. Or soak a thin cloth in the mix, then drape it over your face and neck for 20 minutes.
Step 4
Remove the mask with warm water and follow with moisturizer.
