How to Fade Dark Marks and Blemishes With a Honey and Turmeric Face Mask
Now, more than ever, people are becoming aesthetic conscious. Both men and women want to look good but having dark pigmentation patches or skin blemishes can make you feel self-conscious. An even skin tone is one of the most powerful fashion statements one can have. You can spend money on skin lightening products that can be expensive but many people prefer to go down the natural skin lightening route. There are many natural products that can be used to remove a tan, fade dark marks and generally lighten the skin tone.
In this article, you’ll discover how to use inexpensive honey and turmeric powder that you can purchase from your local grocery store to make a face mask that can lighten your skin tone and fade dark blemishes.
Honey and Turmeric Facial Mask
All you need is a bottle of honey (raw organic honey is best) and a bottle of turmeric from your local grocery store’s spice aisle. Use a teaspoon of turmeric powder and a tablespoon of the honey and mix them together in a small bowl or cup. After washing your face with your usual face wash, dry with a clean towel then apply the turmeric face mask. Turmeric stains fabrics so it is best to do this in the bathroom wearing an old t-shirt and be careful not to drop any of the paste on the carpet!
Rub the face mask on your face using gentle circular motions, wash your hands and leave the mask on your face for about 20 minutes. The honey will most likely drip down your face so keep some tissue with you to catch any drips.
After the 20 minutes is up, wash the mask off your face with warm water, do one more wash with your usual face wash and then do a final rinse with cold water to close your pores.
Honey has anti-bacterial properties and turmeric has anti-inflammatory properties so together they will work to draw impurities from your skin and reduce blemishes. Your skin will feel smoother and softer immediately. Use this face mask twice a week and you will start to see that your dark marks are fading after just 3-4 weeks.

Homemade face mask to get rid of black heads?
I really want to do a homemade face mask to get rid of black heads. I have them on my nose, and a few on my cheeks (like under my eyes but lower) I also have pimples on my chin, I wash my face every morning and night, I use toner, moisturizer, and the 3rd step of Proactive.
Please tell me a good homemade face mask to get rid of black heads :]
Also, I have pretty dry skin.
Thankyou!
The Lemon Tomato Mask works great on blackheads and acne, but is for oily skin. Or you could try the Egg and Honey Mask or the Oatmeal Mask, which are both for dry skin. All the recipes are here at a post my friend wrote on my fashion and beauty blog: http://modstylelounge.blogspot.com/2009/12/facial-fun_30.html. Go ahead and check it out, I’m not sure which one would work best for you. You can choose one or experiment with a few. Hope I helped!
