After having a baby time is a luxury, so really get no time for weekly cleansing, scrubbing and exfoliating :(. Due to this my skin was in BAD condition, with enlarged facial pores and lot of black and white heads. Then I came across this egg white and lemon mask which worked wonders for me by reducing my pores and tightening my skin and that too with very less effort.
Egg white which is rich in protein contains amino acids which helps to build skin protein that is collagen, thus healing and nourishing it. It also absorbs excess oil from skin and skrinks the pores and gives a tightening effect to the skin. It is believed that regular use of egg and lemon mask helps get rid of blackheads and white heads.
All you need to do is take small amount, say 1-2 spoon of egg white and add 4-5 drops of lemon to it(lemon cleansed your skin and also reduces smelling of egg). Whip it little bit so that it becomes easy to apply. Then apply it on your face leaving lips and area around the eyes and leave it for 5-10 minutes till it dries off completely. Then wash it off with cold water.
P.S- People sensitive/allergic to egg should use there own discretion.
It is best to use organic egg since it will not have any bacteria’s. People with acne or any open wounds should prevent from using it to avoid spread of egg bacteria to affected area.
