I was looking for homemade face creams as I am not so fond of the artificial ones, although I am using them now and then

I found the Magic of Banana 🍌 hahah simply smash a banana (a small piece actually) and apply. My skin literally sucked it all in within few minutes. Very interesting. I think I'll just leave it on for an hour. I'll update later how it feels after I'll wash my face.

That one cream that Cindy Crawford promotes has extracts from some kind of mellon from France that looks like a cantaloupe. So sometimes if I buy a cantaloupe, I will take a small piece and rub it on my face lol

Rosehip oil. Natural. Works. Never tried bananas. Also lanolin. Mild. Keeps skin soft.

@PoetryNEmotion lanolin yes? We use it in painting to mix the oil colours!

Really ?
Oooh....imma gonna try this.
Just so happens I have an abundance at the moment coz I asked my son to grab a few ....and that kid never does anything by halves - I now have a fruit bowl FULL of them .

And since tomorrow is Sunday - perfect day for a nana-mask.

Thanks for the tip ....always nice to know peoples personal experiences with such stuff .

@OogieBoogie it felt nice actually, I kept it on during my noon siesta...I washed my face with warm water and soap afterwards and applied a bit of oil.

Olive oil?

elafina · 36-40, F

@V00doo yes there re the oils, but I'd like something more hydrating, I'm using oils anyways..
