I love the oatmeal bath soak for sunburns and while it worked great on my shoulders, chest, and back its hard to soak your face in a tub for 20 minutes without doing some serious harm. My nose and forehead got the worst of it this time around so I decided that I'd try making a mask out of my lovely little oatmeal blend.
What You'll need:
- 2 Tablespoons Oatmeal Bath Soak *recipe in my earlier blog*
- 2 Tablespoons Water
- 1/2 Teaspoon E.V.O.O.
- 2 chlled tea bags
How to:
1. Add all your ingredients into a cup or small bowl
2. Stir until well blended, should be slightly runny, (if its too thick it will just fall off your face when you try to put it on.)
3. At this point I recomend putting on some of your favorite "mellow me out" music
4. Apply the mask using your finger tips to smooth it out as much as possible,
5. Lay down somewhere comfy and put the tea bags over your eyes. Relax for 15-20 min.
* I put the music on so that I could time it about 4 of your favorite mellow songs should be about right.
6. Using a wash rag and some water remove the mask.
* I took this time to use it as a mini scrub as well, take the wash cloth and using a circular upward outward
motion gently scrub away the mask.
7. Rinse face with warm water, then splash with cool water, pat dry, and apply your favorite moisturizer... All done!
Hope you all enjoy this as much as I did.. with mellow music and the lavendar and chamomile aroma it was the most relaxing 20 minof my week!
