4. Use olive oil to remove makeup

Olive oil is another one of great homemade beauty treatments, it is just great for removing makeup and it does your skin the world of good too. Just put a few drops of olive oil on some cotton wool and then wipe away your makeup at the end of the day. It won’t clog your pores, it will nourish your skin, and it also contains vitamins A, E and other antioxidants that will help keep your skin looking younger for longer.

5. Try an avocado face mask

The healthy fats in avocado make an ideal skin treatment and celebrities like Victoria Beckham and Kim Kardashian are said be regular users of homemade avocado face masks. Mash up the flesh of an avocado and then apply a thin layer all over your face and leave it on for fifteen minutes. If you don’t use it all and you want to keep it in the refrigerator for later, just mix in a teaspoon of lemon juice and that will stop the avocado turning brown.

6. Exfoliate with baking soda

Baking soda is a great product for removing dead skin cells, and soothing acne. It gently exfoliates the skin and helps balance out the production of the natural oils. Make up a paste of baking soda and lukewarm water and then gently massage it into your skin. Baking soda can be a bit harsh for some people who have very sensitive skin, so try it on a small area of skin first, just to make sure that you don’t get a reaction to it.
