Natural skin care has many benefits over buying skin care products in a store. First of all, natural skin care products made with basic ingredients that you may even already have on hand are almost always cheaper than those you could buy at a store. Plus, just as the name "natural skin care" implies, all of the ingredients you are using are natural, meaning that your facial mask or scrub won't be filled with chemicals or preservatives like commercially made scrubs.

Mash half and avacodo and apply to your face for about 20-30 minutes, the wipe it off and rinse with water.

Astringent
For a homemade astringent, use apple cider vinegar. Just apply to a cottonball and wipe it over your face. As with any toner or astringent, ifyou have sensitive skin it may sting, so test on a small patch first.

Warm several tablespoons of honey, apply to skin and leave on for 15 minutes. Then, wash it off with water.
Hone both moisturizes and acts as a gentle astringent.
Strawberry Honey Mask
