Science Notes

The ingredients in this facial are designed to help mop up oily skin and promote a clear, dewy complexion.

When applied topically, bananas help to balance the skin and counteract blemishes. Honey is a natural anti-bacterial that boosts the acne-fighting powers of the Banana and Honey Face Mask, while reducing redness and irritation.

Related Tip

Try a steam treatment before applying the face mask. The steam treatment will open pores, release dirt and trapped toxins from the skin.
