Strawberry skin care
Over at Realself, there’s a post on benefits of strawberry and on strawberry skin care. Anna Kournikova apparently uses strawberries as part of her skin care. I am sure she uses only organic ones, though
Most of the strawberry masks I know of are highly recommended for oily skin and skin prone to inflammation as strawberries are known to cleanse the skin very well.
If your skin is blemished and you’re looking for a good cleansing facial mask, here’s a good one:
Strawberry blemish mask
Ingredients
A handful of strawberries
A teaspoon of heavy cream.
Preparation
Using a blender, mash the strawberries first.
Add heavy cream to it until the mass is consistent.
Apply it on the face and neck and leave on for 10-15 minutes.
Using a wash cloth, remove the mass and then wash the face well with cold water.
Strawberries are a strong antiseptic. They have Vitamin C in them as well as folic acid. Strawberries thoroughly cleanse the skin and remove excess oil and impurities.
