Acne/Hive Face Mask: Using Yogurt and Oatmeal

I'm going to talk straight up to all the ladies who read our blog. Breaks outs happen. Whether its the week before your period or from eating too much of a certain food.
This mask is so soothing; it reduces redness, puffiness, itchiness, and naturally exfoliates the skin.  The enzymes from the Greek yogurt gently remove the dead skin cells and minimizes the appearance of acne.
I like to make a batch and store the left overs in a glass container in the refrigerator (which lasts up to a week).

Here's what you need!

Ingredients:
1/2 cup of Gluten Free Oats (colloidal)* - use food processor
1/2 cup Full Strained Greek Yogurt (I use FAGE)
1/4 cup of water

*What are colloidal oats?

Colloidal oats are finely ground whole oats. When water is added, the fluid is milky and basically coats and absorbs into the skin easier than whole oats. It has anti-fungal, anti inflammatory, and moisturizing properties which equates to smooth, supple, and clear skin!

Instructions: 
To Make Colloidal oats - process whole oatmeal in a food processor, until the mixture resembles course flour. It's fine to have bigger chunks, as long as the majority is finely ground.
In a clean glass bowl add water and colloidal oats. Add more water if the mixture is too thick. The mixture should be a loose paste. Add Greek yogurt and stir until well combined.
Applied all over a clean face. Wear mask for 15-30 minutes, or until it has dried. Rinse skin with warm water.

Let us know how the mask works for you!
Xoxo,
~ T
