How to Make a Facial Mask with Cucumber
You can easily make a cleansing facial mask with cucumber with things you probably have on hand. There's no need to spend an outrageous amount of money at a store on a facial mask that you can make for pennies and that will be better for your skin care since it will not have chemicals in it.
Things You Will Need
Small cucumber
Plain yogurt
1 Large AA grade egg
Lemon juice
Blender or potato masher
Measuring spoons
Bowl
Knife
Cutting board
Spatula
Thoroughly wash and peel the small cucumber that you will be using in your facial mask. Slice the cucumber up and place it in the blender or a bowl and mash. If using a blender, cover, turn on and puree the cucumber. It is fine if there are very small clumps left in as long as the overall consistency resembles puree.
Crack the egg open. Separate the egg yolk from the egg white. Add only the egg white to the pureed or mashed cucumber.
Measure out 2 1/2 tablespoons of the plain yogurt. Add the yogurt to the blender or to the bowl.
Measure out 1 3/4 teaspoons of the lemon juice. Add the lemon juice to the blender or to the bowl.
Cover the blender. Turn the blender on and mix the ingredients of your face mask thoroughly. Transfer into a bowl, using a spatula to scrape the blender sides.
Apply the facial mask to your face with fingertips; work in circular motions until the entire face is covered. Avoid the eye area.
Gently rinse the cucumber facial mask off with warm water after 15 minutes. Pat your face dry. Follow this with your choice of a light moisturizing cream.

Great way to use the million cucumbers I have as the plabts go to seed. Have you tried to preserve this with vitamin C or E? Try it with either or both since they are both good for your skin and they can both be found in a liquid form. I love the cucumber!!
