Reader Contribution by Staff

Talk about perfect timing. Just as the weather is getting cooler and we’re approaching dry-skin season, Mother Earth News reader Pamela Koontz sent in a few of her favorite homemade skincare recipes. As she pointed out, when compared to commercial products, homemade skincare can save you money, is often easier on the environment, and makes it easy to care for your skin naturally. So, go ahead, “whip one of these up and let nature do all of the work!”

Farmer’s Wife Secret Mask2 chilled egg whites 
1/8 tsp cornstarch

Whip the egg whites until they form peaks; then slowly add the cornstarch.  Apply the mixture immediately to your face, leaving it on for 20 minutes. Rinse face with cool water. 

Bumblebee Facial Mask1 tbsp dried milk
1 egg yolk
1 tsp honey

Mix honey with the egg yolk and then stir in the dried milk powder. Mix into a paste and apply. Remove after 20 minutes with cool water.
