The Egg White Mask

Here's a simple and economical mask that i tried and recommend!!!

THE EGG WHITE MASK



How many of you knows about it? Tried it before? Someone 'reminded' me about this last week and it suddenly clicked that i saw my kakak applied this before. SO, If you haven't try this out than this is the time to do it. It's cheap and so easy to prepare and apply besides you won't have any break out as the side effect.

Here's MY TAKE on this after 1st time application(after eons of years since i last applied it) :

Skin Condition : Combination(oily T Zone/dry the-other zone), few acne marks, few chicken pox marks(just got them last month :s), oh and blackheads.

My How-To :

1. Washed the egg and I broke it gently by hitting at the sides with a spoon. Once there's an opening, i cracked it open with my fingers.

2. I then separate the egg whites and the egg yolk by putting the egg white in a small bowl.

3. I wash my hands and put on some sanitizer! *kebersihan itu penting!*

4. I use my hands to spread the egg whites all over my face excluding the eye area.

5. Halfway, i put strips on tissue paper on top of my slimy-with-egg-whites face and put on more egg whites on top of the tissue.

6. Wanted to wait until it dries off but was too sleepy to wait so i rinsed it off at half-an hour after applying.

7. Too sleepy so i just hit the bed and did not apply any toner/moisturiser after cleansing *This is a must to further seal off your pores*

Pros : Skin feels firmer and softer, looks brighter and reduce oiliness.
Cons : Slimy(hehe), didn't see improvement on the blackheads.

My Review:

I am 'blessed' with a combination skin, meaning some parts of my skin can be dehydrated, some oily and occasional breakout. It was an immediate effect on me! The skin feels softer and supple to touch, looks brighter and there's a bit of a glow to it and as i went out the day after, my skin did not pump out oil like a petrol station. Of course lah, ada sikit oily but at least i wasn't shining like a beacon!

However, it's a lil bit slimy la masa nak apply so i'd buy a brush and just brush it on my face the next time. I was expecting a 'fishy' smell but tak ada pun bau. yay! And i thought it would pull my blackheads out when i wash it off but nope, no improvement on my blackheads. Maybe because i didn't wait until it dries off.

Also, i'll keep this in mind that the next time, i would only apply to the oily areas. Since it'll make my skin tad drier. It's good if it can reduce pore size and hence control oil 'spillage' onto my skin. But not so good lah if my dehydated part lagi bertambah dry.

Since it's all natural so there'd be no breakouts InsyAllah as long as you obey the hygienic rule. Clean the egg AND your hands thoroughly! If ada sanitizer, than sanitize dulu. Now you can try this easy-peasy and purse-friendly beauty tip! :)
