Dermatologist suggests homemade masks to improve your skin


RX for Brown Skin for African American skin care products

While your African American skin care product can help you achieve a flawless look, having healthy skin underneath your makeup is just as important. In a recent guest appearance on the television show, Dr. Oz., dermatologist Ellen Marmur explained how you can use some simple ingredients found in your kitchen to boost the health of your skin.


First, the expert suggested wearing a mask of honey and avocado for 10 minutes a week to improve dry skin.


“You are going to cut your avocado in half and scoop out the fruit of the avocado and you’re going to start stirring in about one tablespoon of honey and make it into a kind of a nice consistency,” said Marmur, quoted by EMax.


Next, Marmur said that people who experience rosacea, a condition characterized by redness in the skin, can be improved using a mask of pineapple and cottage cheese.


WebMD reminds readers that what you eat is reflected in your complexion, so while you're using these ingredients on your outer skin, remember the take what your put into your body for account as well. Milk, strawberries and plums have all been found to improve skin's appearance.
