DIY vegan face mask recipes for all skin types
Hey, beauty bunnies! Today I’m sharing four easy DIY vegan face mask recipes that you can make with ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen. These masks are affordable, perfect for every skin type, and are all cruelty-free and vegan.
Moisturizing face mask
This vegan face mask recipe is perfect for all skin types, but is especially beneficial for dry skin. It contains avocado, which is rich in fatty acids and vitamins that help hydrate and nourish the skin. Honey is a natural humectant, meaning it helps draw moisture into the skin.
To make this mask, mash half an avocado and mix it with 1 tablespoon of shea butter or vegetable glycerin. Apply the mask to your clean, damp skin and leave it on for 10-15 minutes. Rinse it off with cold water and pat your face dry. Finally, apply coconut oil or your favorite hydrating moisturizer.
Face mask for oily skin
This vegan face mask is perfect for oily skin as it contains strawberries, which contain salicylic acid, which helps break down dead skin cells. It also contains jojoba oil, a non-comedogenic oil similar to the skin’s natural oils, and kaolin clay, which removes impurities.
To make this mask, mash 4 strawberries and mix them with 1 teaspoon jojoba oil and 1/4 teaspoon white kaolin clay. Apply the mask to your clean, damp skin and leave it on for 10-15 minutes. Rinse it off with cold water and pat your face dry. Finally, apply your favorite cruelty-free moisturizer.
Face mask for acne-prone skin
This mask is perfect for acne-prone skin as it contains bananas, which have an astringent effect to balance the skin’s oil levels, bicarbonate soda (baking soda), which removes oil and dirt from pores, and turmeric, which has reduced inflammation antimicrobial and antibacterial properties.
To make this cruelty-free face mask, mash a ripe banana and mix it with 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda and 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric. Apply the mask to your clean, damp skin and leave it on for 10-15 minutes. Rinse it off with cold water and pat your face dry. Finally, apply your favorite oil-free or gel moisturizer.
Face mask for all skin types
This mask is perfect for all skin types as flaxseeds are a natural source of omega-3 fatty acids. Flaxseeds also help exfoliate the skin and remove dead skin cells.
To make this mask, grind 1 teaspoon of flaxseed into a powder. Mix the powder with 3 teaspoons of water and let it sit for 15 minutes, or until it forms a sticky, paste-like consistency. Apply the mask to clean, damp skin and leave on for 7-10 minutes or until completely dry. Rinse it off with lukewarm water and pat your face dry.
