Cherish the skin you’re in. Whether you’ve got 5 minutes or time to slow down and treat yourself, your skin should always be a priority. You don’t always need a 10-step regimen to give your face the TLC it craves and deserves. Check out these quick, easy-to-use home remedies for soft, hydrated skin.
- Honey Rub. Honey is great for skin, when taken both internally and used externally. In addition to being a common skincare ingredient, massaging a teaspoon of raw honey on the face, letting dry for 10 minutes, and then washing it off will lead to soft and glowing epidermis.
- Fig Mash. Face masks can be made from all kinds of ingredients—including colorful, juicy fruits. For a detoxifying and mildly exfoliating rub, mash together two figs, add a little milk, and massage onto the face for one or two minutes. Wash the face with water after and reveal a revitalized and fresh face.
- Patchology Products. As featured in this month’s Beauty at the Speed of You Spa Special, Patchology is a quick and simple solution to quality skin care. Known for being easy to use, just pop on a patch to target different areas of your face; you can go for lip hydration, eye gels, hydration masks or illumination options. Available for purchase in spa retail outlet.
- Avocado Spread. This healthy fat isn’t just a delicious additive to toast—avocado also works as a moisturizing tool for dry skin. For best results, mash up an avocado and apply it to clean skin, waiting about 15 minutes or more before washing off with milk, followed by water. Adding avocado oil as a daily serum can also help to boost moisture levels of the skin.
