the best method is to put honey on your face. honey is probably the best method. you can also use plain yogurt, lemon juice, or egg whites. they give you a great complexion. just leave them on for 15-20 minutes and wash off. real easy. hope i helped.

K. this is gonna sound gross, but im serious!!!
egg whites. seperate the yolk from the white in a raw egg. add a bit of water to the whites, and whip it together a little, till its like all sticky and liquidy
this will feel gross, but take a brush and like "paint" it onto your face, and leave it on till it feels tight and dry.
it will make your face tight, soft (like a babys butt!!!), and actually cleanse deep down
its icky but totally worth it!!!!
