Be sure to check which facial masks are good for your skin type. I've tried to mark the facial mask recipes with the type of skin it is for, I hope this will help you decide which ones to make. Be sure you are not allergic to any of the ingredients before using the homemade facial masks you have created. You can test out a mask by using it as directed on the back of your ear first.
One of the best reasons to make your own facial masks is because you can normally find the ingredients right in your home - or at a quick trip to your grocery store.
