Tips to follow before using homemade masks:

1.Avoid using certain ingredients such as lemon or apple cider vinegar alone and directly on your skin.

2. Check the expiration date of the material.

3. Do a test first

In case of doubt, test the whole face on an area outside of sight before applying the mask to make sure you are not allergic to the ingredients used.

4. Use it immediately after preparing the mask

Exposed materials and bacteria decompose very quickly and can easily irritate the skin. To be safe, make your mask with fresh ingredients and use it within an hour after mixing.
