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 it! Thank you

You’ll love this mask! My aesthetician recommends vanicream and squalene. It has done wonders for my dry skin.
This looks great. However, my question is how long do you leave the mask on and to verify, this can be used under the eyes?
Love your website.
Hello Susan,
It’s generally suggested that homemade face masks can stay on for 15-30 minutes to allow them to penetrate your skin.
It’s generally best to avoid the under eye area with mask and facial treatments so you don’t get the ingredients in your eyes.
Enjoy!

I will try now
