aspirin/honey/green tea mask



2tsp loose green tea, ground to a powder
1tsp hot water, mixed with tea
10 aspirin, ground to a powder and mixed with above
3 drops eucalyptus essential oil
4 drops lemon essential oil
2TB honey
1TB almond oil

The eucalyptus makes it tingly! I think this will go a lot better than the version I tried with Tats.

If you're doing this yourself, you can use extra-virgin olive oil and bagged tea, I just used what I happened to have on hand. The essential oils are also optional, just for the smell.

Eucalyptus is a good astrigent, too!

Ooooh. Does it moisturize?
