How to make a homemade face mask with two simple ingredients. Learn the benefits a milk and honey face mask has for your skin and get the five minute recipe!
Last week, I treated myself to quite possibly one of the best facials I’ve had in my life. I walked out and felt five years younger, even if I feel as tired as a 90-year-old.
Milk and Honey Mask
The girls are always envious of any spa time I squeeze in {which sadly is rare}, so over the weekend, we enjoyed a little spa time at the lake cottage. It’s one of our favorite things to do together.
We dim the lights, add a little candlelight and I’ll massage their legs with lotion, paint their toes and this weekend, indulged them in a simple homemade face mask made of milk and honey.
I really pulled out all the stops and let them relax with a refreshing drink as well. Since I already had the honey out, I decided to kill two birds with one stone and mix up some a pitcher of my Honey Lemonade that the girls love so much!
I love making natural bath products because I find that the simplest ingredients yield the best results and I’m always in favor of using ingredients I have in my kitchen over a trip to the store.
This milk and honey face mask is so easy, even kids can make it.
I highly recommend that you treat yourself to one as well. It’s an easy milk and honey face mask recipe that will leave your skin feeling soft and fresh, made with just two natural ingredients!

Why You Should Use A Face Mask
I’m always asking my aesthetician how to achieve clearer skin and reduce the signs of aging.
One of the things she reminded me last week is that not only do we want to take in the right nutrients daily, but we want to apply those nutrients, like protein, directly to our skin. A great homemade face mask consists of high-quality ingredients, which is why I used my favorite fairlife milk.
The Benefits of a Face Mask
This milk and honey face mask has a lot of health benefits for your skin. The vitamin D in fairlife milk can make your skin glow and appear youthful, boost collagen production, help fade dark circles and spots, and promote elasticity by hydrating and exfoliating.
Whole milk is best for dry skin because research shows healthy fat soothes the skin. The honey helps prevent and heal acne, soothes and moisturizes your skin.
Love this mask recipe, Thank you for
Sharing looking foward to more of
Your reciepes !😊
Thanks, Anita! You’ll have to try my sugar scrubs and milk baths, too!
What a great idea! Thank you. Do we let it sit for a particular amount of time?
Just make sure it’s a comfortable temperature before applying. Enjoy!
As a college student I’m constantly looking for ways to save money, and homemade face masks are a great way to do so! While I don’t use homemade face masks all the time, this one sounds very promising. Dark circles are something I’m always trying to get rid of and I have some acne scars from when I was younger, so I’m gonna give this one a go!
I love this but I was wondering if you knew a way to preserve it so that I don’t have to remake it every time.
I would think if you prepare them to just date the jar & store in a mini fridge or normal fridge. If it were me I would just make sure not to go past the expiration date of the milk I used to make it.
I love this so much that I’ve added it to my nightly routine!Â
I’ve made this several times now and love how easy it is and how soft it makes my skin feel!
