This homemade acne mask is actually more of a lotion as it is more liquid than regular face masks but it is highly effective. Two main ingredients here are honey and lemon juice. Honey is a strong anti-inflammatory agent known as a powerful natural cleanser. It prevents possible infections and clears up existing ones.

Lemon juice might sometimes leave the skin dry and that is why there has to be another ingredient to counteract this effect, in this case honey which will prevent possible dryness and nourish the skin leaving it soft and rejuvenated.
To prepare it, you will need:
2 teaspoons of lemon juice
2 teaspoons of honey
7 oz of water
