Addidional : What is your skin type?
♥ Oily: add a few drops of lemon juice
♥ Dry: olive oil or honey will moisturize your skin
♥ Sensitive: Aloe vera soothing effect will suits you best!
♥ Acne prone: try honey and you will love it! it's antibacterial and diminish acne
Recipe:
- one or two carrot- additional substance that suits your skin (choose from above)
- Juicer
- Sieve, a spoon, a glass, and a bowl.
Now I'll tell you step by step of making carrot facial mask. You may find people usually cook the carrot first to make it tender. But I don't really like it since cooking the carrot may omit its nutrient content. I'm start with juice the carrot first and there is a bonus at end of the making process ~♥
1. Peel the carrot, put in the juicer. add half glass of water and juice it.
2. Pour juice over the sieve and you will get a carrort pulp like in my first picture.
3. Mash it with spoon until all the juice out of carrots. You can put the water juice in a glass.
4. Now put the pulp in a bowl and add your favorite additional substance. Mix it well.
5. You can start appyling the pulp on your face
don't forget to put the separated juice in a refrigerator and add sweetener ^^~
Wait for 10-15 minutes then rinse well with water. You can use a toner and moisturizer afterwards.
Now you can enjoy your fresh skin + a glass of healthy carrot juice♥
Happy trying dear readers =D

You means carrot shouldn't be cooked ?
april: ah, I didn't said all carrots shouldn't be cooked, but if you want to use it as a mask, then you shouldn't =)
Some antioxidant may damaged (or oxidized) by heating it and it would be useless. So better if you didn't cook it ;P
BTW, didn't your skin become yellowish? o__O I just remember when I cut some carrot, my finger became orange-yellowish.
