Sour cream is a fermented product. Due to its special content and high amounts of lactic acid, sour cream is very healthy as a skin care product. Lactic acid maintains the skin’s hydration levels. If your skin is moisturized, it looks fresh and young. Cocoa is rich in antioxidants. It has all necessary properties to fight free radicals. Thanks to the flavanols found in cocoa it can make your skin more vibrant. Use it in the summertime if you want to repair skin damaged by UV radiation. It is also beneficial for mature skin. Try out the following recipe: mix one tablespoon of honey with one tablespoon of cocoa powder. Add the white of one egg to the mixture. Apply the mask to the face. Once it dries, rinse the mask off.

2. Basil Skin Toner

Let your skin be clear of bacteria – use basil and its unique properties to clear the pores and heal your skin. The anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties of the plant can be effectively used to treat acne. Make your own toner and your skin will become healthy and soft. You can use the lotion to relief insect bites, and fight different bacterial infections. To prepare the lotion, crush some fresh basil using a pestle and mortar. Then add a cup of hot water. Let the mixture stand for a few minutes. When the basil water reaches room temperature, strain it. Keep your home-made lotion in a bottle or spray. Use it as a wonderful facial mist throughout the day.
