Answer 2

Queen Helene makes some great ones and are really cheap. The Mint Julip is a classic and is terrific for your skin. They sell them in drugstores or places like Wal-Mart and Target.

Answer 3

There are tons if you go to any store. You can get ones in single packages at stores like Kmart and Five Below (if you have a Five Below near you). They are each about $1. I got some really nice ones at Kmart in these GREAT types:

- Calming Sweet Almond Oil
- Detoxing Chamomile and Aloe Vera

I can't remember any more, all the rest are gone! The chamomile and aloe vera is great though. You can probably get some cheap ones at $1-$2 each at CVS and stuff. If you want, here are a few recipes that work really great and are super simple!


MEGA VEDA MASK FOR DRY SKIN:

- 1/2 carrot, grated
- 1 avocado, mashed
- 2 tbsp. almond or sesame oil

1) Wash you face with a gentle cleanser
2) Place all ingredients in a bowl, mixing thoroughly to combine.
3) Use your fingers to apply a thin, even layer of the mask all over your face, avoiding the eye area.
4) Let sit on your face for 20 minutes
5) Use a washcloth and tepid water to rinse off the mask. Pat dry.


MEGA VEDA MASK FOR COMBINATION SKIN:

- 1 overripe banana, mashed
- 1/2 small cucumber, grated
- 2 tbsp. cocnut milk or plain whole-milk yogurt

*Follow directions for the Mega Veda Mask for Dry Skin.*


MEGA VEDA MASK FOR OILY SKIN:

- 1 medium apple, grated (green ones are best)
- 1 egg white
- 2 tbsp. lemon juice

*Follow directions for Mega Veda Mask for Dry Skin.*


STRAWBERRY FACIAL MASK (great for treating blemishes):

- 1/2 cup strawberries
- 2 tsp. honey
- 1 egg white
- 2 cucumber slices
- 3 peppermint teabags
- 3 washcloths
- moisturizer

1) Mash the strawberries in a bowl, using the back of a spoon. Add the honey and egg white, mixing thoroughly until smooth.
2) Wash your face with a gentle cleanser and pat dry. Use your fingers to apply a thin, even layer of the mask all over your face, except around your eyes. Lie back, throw those cucumber slices over your lids, and rest for 15 to 20 minutes. (Hint: stress is a hude factor in causing breakouts. Take this time to slow down and just breathe.) Rinse off the mask with tepid water and pat dry.
3) Fill the sink or large bowl with hot water, and add the teabags. Throw a towel over your head to create a tent, and bend over the water for 10-15 minutes to let the steam open your pores. Peppermint is not only invigorating, it's especially good for healing blemishes.
4) Rinse your face well, then dip a washcloth in cool water. Wring, and place is over your face. This closes the pores, so the acne-causing bacteria can't sneak back in.
5) Apply a light, oil free moisturizer.


HONEY OATMEAL MASK:

- 3 tbsp. regular, uncooked oatmeal
- 2 tbsp. honey

1) Combine the ingredients in a bowl.
2) Spread over your face and let sit for 10 minutes.
3) Rinse off.


EXTRA GENTLE YOGURT MASK:

- 1/4 cup yogurt
- 1/4 cucumber, peeled

1) Place the yogurt and cucumber in a food processor or blender and puree until smooth.
2) Pour it into a bowl and use a cotton pad to pat the mask all over your face. It will be a little runny.
3) Leave for 10 minutes
4) Rinse off.

Oil of Olay has a great one. I don't know the name of it but I know it is blue, it might be their clay mask. It's not that expensive (especially at Wal Mart) and it really brightens your skin.
