DIY Moisturizing Avocado & Honey Mask

Avocados make a great mask for beautiful skin. Packed with emollient avocado oil, avocados are a wonderful source ofantioxidants and fatty acids to replenish the skin. Honey is a humectant that will draw moisture from the air into your skin. Honey has some amazing antioxidant properties as well as amino acids, peptide and probiotics to soothe and nourish the skin. The antibacterial qualities of honey also help protect the surface of your skin.

For skin that needs a little extra TLC, mush half an avocado along with a with a quarter cup of honey. Apply directly to the skin for at least 15 minutes. Rinse it off using a moist, cool washcloth, wrung out with water. Pat dry and follow up with your usual skin care. For dry or aging skin we recommend a cream packed with skin repairing peptides to prevent, and reduce the signs of aging.

(Tip: This is a good remedy for moisturizing your hair too although you use one avocado mixed with just a couple of tablespoons of honey for a half hour before rinsing the hair clean with warm water!)
