Bakin Soda scrub for your face.
Dabs of white toothpaste, not gel on acne spots. Let it sit on overnight.
Egg whites can stay on face til dry then rinse off.
Cucumbers on the eyes, eyes closed. Put on chilled. Not to cold.
Yogurt plain as a mask to, let soak in for about 10 minutes rinse off.

You can make a paste of baking soda and water to gently exfoliate your skin.
You can crush up 6 plain, uncoated aspirin tablets and mix it w/ a little water to make mask. Leave it on for 15-20 minutes & rinse off w/ cool water.
Mix half a teaspoon of crushed uncoated aspirin tablets with Queen Helene Mint Julep mask or aloe vera gel to use as a mask. Leave it on for 15-20 minutes & rinse off w/ cool water.
Milk of Magnesia - apply in thin layer where needed & allow to dry 5-10 mins. Will absorb oil & tighten pores. Can be used as a spot treatment too.
For toner: 8 ounce bottle of distilled water add four crushed, uncoated aspirin and shake well before each use

I have a book called 'Passport to Beauty' with all sorts of homeade beauty treatments. The author, Shalini Vadhera is absolutely beautiful. Some of her recipes, etc are listed on her website. Or you could 'google' the title.

well if you have clay powder ...make a mud mixture with the powder and water apply it to your face and wait till it drys then wash it off (for acne)
too make your face really soft get brown or regular sugar (brown works best) and after you wash your face with your usual wash rub it all over your face for 30 seconds then rinse it off

(1) WASH FACE AND RINSE THOROUGHLY
(2) PUT RAW EGG WHITE IN SMALL BOWL AND BEAT IT
(3) SPREAD OVER ENTIRE FACE AVOIDING LIPS AND EYE AREA
(4) LIE ON YOUR BACK AND LET DRY (15 MINUTES AT LEAST) DO NOT MAKE EXPRESSIONS WHILE WAITING. YOU WILL FEEL IT TIGHTENING.
(5) RINSE OFF THOROUGHLY AND USE WITCH HAZEL
