As an anti-acne agent, here’s how an egg white facial should be done: In a bowl, beat the egg white until it is firm. Add some lemon juice (a few drops will do) into the beaten egg. Spread the mixture all over your face, gently massaging in acne-prone areas in a circular upward motion. While waiting for the mask to tighten, relax and listen to your favorite music. As you feel your skin tightens, rinse off thoroughly with warm water. Finish the treatment by applying your moisturizer to your face. It must be noted, however, that this facial will work well for individuals with oily skin.
It is also vital that before applying any mixture on your face, you must have tested the mixture first to see how your skin will react to it. To test, put a small amount of mixture at the back of your hand, wait for a few minutes. If your skin does not react to it, then it is safe to proceed applying the mixture to your face.
