Aspirin Mask
Have any of you tried the aspirin mask? Aspirin is a beta-hydroxy acid (BHA), a salicylic acid, just like in most acne clearing products out there. Its incredibly deep cleaning. There are also so many recipes for it, but here is the one I use:
01. Two or more crushed inexpensive aspirin tablets
02. Few drops of water or honey, not too much... you dont want it real watery at all.
- put it all over your face, it should be of grainy texture.. & honey helps a lot.
-wait~15 or so minutes or until it starts kind of flaking off.
- wash it off. the little bits of the tablet act as exfoliators. & that's it!
People tweak it for their skin type. ie: yogurt, aloe vera, etc. It can help with oiliness, breakouts, blemishes, etc... and my leaves skin very smooth. Though its not recommended more than~three times a week... its a bit drying, so you should moisturize after... Not for everyone, since some people are allergic to aspirin.
