There's no face like home-made facial mask face.

Facial masks should be an integral part of every ones regime. Not only do they replenish our skin, but they force us, in an unobtrusive way, to take time for ourselves and relax; after all, it's impossible to get much of anything done with a layer of creamy goodness slathered over your face, and cucumbers over your eyes.

But why get dressed up and go out to a spa, when you can get the same benefits, and remain comfortable in your own space? The answer is: there is no reason. Below I've included recipes for at-home face masks. Each provides unique benefits, but all are quick and easy to blend up at home, with ingredients you use every day. Hey, you can even make yourself a smoothie while you're at it.
