CherRuby Pearly Yogurt Mask

Yogurt is probably one of the most commonly used ingredients for the home based skincare regime-- and rightly so considering that yogurt is loaded with lactic acid, protein, vitamins, minerals, and probiotics.  Lactic acid is a natural AHA, which exfoliates the skin and helps reduce acne breakouts and appearance of wrinkles and even skin tone.   Yogurt’s low pH helps restore the skin to its natural slightly acidic state and the nutrients in the yogurt help nourishing the skin.  

Here is a simple yogurt receipt for a quick at-home facial:

Mix one 5mL (about a teaspoon) of yogurt with 0.5 grams of pearl powder to make a paste.  I use a unflavored whole milk yogurt.  The milk fat in the whole milk keeps mask from drying too fast.  Spread the paste over your clean face.  Sit back and relax for 20 minutes or until the mask dries.  Wash off with warm water.  End with a splash of old water.  Pat dry.  Apply your routine moisturizer.

Enjoy!
