A very intense exfoliating mask:
Turmeric along with papaya. The papain, which is contained in the papaya, dissolves cell aggregates of the upper layers of the skin and thus exfoliates very gently. For this mask, unripe fruits are best because they contain about 5000 times more papain than ripe fruits. Be sure to take the seeds with you, this will give you a very good peeling!
What you need:
- 1 tsp turmeric
- ½ unripe papaya, puree, preferably with a little coconut water, but good pure water does it too, and the seeds do not forget to take with them!
- 1 teaspoon flour
- juice of a ½ lemon
Mix well, apply, allow to soak for 15 minutes and then whirl on with circular movements, then remove and apply some rose water to the skin!
Please be attention:
Please make sure that you have not taken too much turmeric, because turmeric makes the skin look slightly yellow at first. That's not bad, because afterwards there is this golden effect! But if it's too much, use lukewarm water, or juice from a lemon or coconut oil, to get rid of the yellow color right away.
