    Nice article, I love when you post things to take care of our skin. Using natural mask is always good to get a shiny and healthy skin, specially if you spend a lot of time outside with contamination and dirty. I recommend to exfoliate your skin before applying any mask to get better results and to take the time to heal and maintain nice our skin every day.

    which one is better for an oily skin that has many pimples and acne? I am very worried about it!

    these are great masks, thanks so much for the wondeful article. I think all too often we get sucked into using terrible chemicals to clean the face, and it really isn’t healthy at all, because if you read the back of those commercial products you buy for cleaning your skin, you won’t know what any of those ingredients are.
