Makes 2 face masks
Preparation time: 4 minutes
I already told you how much I love porridge. In fact I love it so much I even put it on my face! I am a massive fan of Lush cosmetics, not only are their products made with all natural ingredients, cruelty free and mostly vegan, but on top of that they are other wordly. Take me to a lush store and I'll be like a kid in a candy factory. Oh and their staff are always so friendly and helpful. But let's face(mask) it - yep, I had to go there - they can be pretty costly so here's the DIY equivalent of their popular Oatifix face mask. It took me 4 minutes to make and you won't have to go in search of any enigmatic ingredients, I promise, unless you find bananas and oatmeal enigmatic..
This left my skin feeling soft and happy. I would recommend this for oily or acne-prone skin types.
