You'll GLOW, girl

Mix about 2 tablespoons EACH of unflavored yogurt and yellow corn meal. Should be kind of pasty, if it's too runny, add more cornmeal. Let come to room temperature, then use as a scrub, massaging gently in circular motions. This feels so good!!! Rinse with warm water, pat face dry, use hydrogen peroxide as your toner, follow with moisturizer and sunscreen. You'll GLOW, girl!!

EDITOR'S NOTES:

Thanks Liz for sharing this mask with us. Sounds like a nice mask that should do a good job of exfoliating the skin.

Liz suggests using hydrogen peroxide as a toner. Since I was not familiar with this I thought I would find out more about it.

Hydrogen peroxide does kill bacteria which may make it beneficial to use for acne prone skin but the info I found has me questioning how healthy it is to use on the whole face. There is some evidence that regular use may actually harm the skin. So if you're thinking about trying this please learn more about it. A good place to start is by reading the April 15th entry from the The Beauty Brains.
