How to Make Your Own Egg Facial

We scramble them, fry them, boil them, crack them. We love them with our bread and bacon in the mornings. Eggs not only make great breakfast food and an excellent ingredient in baked goods – they also make an excellent natural face mask!

Ok, so maybe it may seem strange to put raw eggs on your face or hair but they can do wonders for your face!

Did you know that raw eggs are an excellent in skin toning, moisturizing, smoothing and preventing the signs of aging? The natural proteins found in raw eggs (both the yolk and the white) can greatly improve the appearance of skin on the face, under the eyes and our hair! Eggs are rich in protein, vitamins and minerals to help nourish the skin.

Egg yolks contain a lot of albumin. Albumin is known to for its drying effect on skin, tightening pores and therefore firming the skin! Egg whites, on the other hand, also tighten the skin but they also narrow the pores, reducing the risk of dirt clogging that cause pimples. We especially love egg whites – they are great for cleansing and exfoliation! If you have oily skin, egg facials are best for you!

Egg white masks really work because the egg proteins constrict as they dry on your face, pulling at the dried layer of cells on top of your skin. When your rinse off the egg white from your face, the loose cells get washed off as well.
