I received this lovely tip on Facebook, from my Aunt Sexy* and decided to share it with the rest of the class.
Homemade Oatmeal Mask for Acne
“I suffer from Adult acne – so I did some research and came up with this mask”.
- Boil about 1/4 cup of oatmeal (organic can be used) in water
- Add in about 2 tablespoon of lemon juice and 2 tablespoon of aloe vera gel.
- Let cool to room temp.
- Apply to clean skin let mask dry on face
- Next wash with lukewarm water.
Skin should be soft and smooth and pores noticeably smaller. Hope this can help someone.

Thanks Auntie!

Just started using the home made mosturiser and I’m already getting compliments from my co workers. I’m also doing ur morning routine as well. The natural products that I’m using work better than those commercialised products that I’ve spent years using.
@lee-anne That’s so great! Thank you for coming back and telling us how things are going…
Awesome..I want to share this on my blog..of-course I’ll be linking back to this article..Thanks for sharing Savvy
@Sasha-Shae No problem!
Can this be done daily?
@Nina Dunno. Gonna go check. BRB
Not sure if this is effective for acne, but it does leave the skin looking very nice. Smaller pores and generally healthier looking skin!
@Nina I check with my Aunt and YES. She’s even done it twice a day until her acne was under control and then she went back to doing it once a day or once every couple of days. HTH
Thanks Savvy! I does help…..I will be giving this a try!
Keep up the good work!
How much water do you use?
