Homemade Detox Face Mask

Halloween is over. The costume and makeup along with all the candy were the weekend highlights. It is time to detoxify the body after all that sugar.There are many special diets for detoxifying the body. But the beautiful face also needs to be detoxified. Especially after all the heavy and toxic Halloween makeup. However, you do not need to run to any beauty shops for a rescue. Just make a trip to your kitchen :) I use these masks often and swear by the results. Though I wish I was more regular :(
