Pearl Powder Revitalizing Beauty Mask
This beauty mask is wonderful for soothing skin inflammation and redness, as pearl powder is very rich in amino acids. It also detoxifies and simulates your skin- slowing down the aging process. It might sound unbelievable, but Chinese women have been using it for centuries, and it is quite easy to make, granting your skin with new life.

Ingredients Needed
  • One tablespoon of pearl powder
  • Half of a tablespoon of raw honey(local is best!)
  • One egg yolk

Directions:
Whisk all the ingredients together in a bowl until you reach a consistency in the color. Apply the mixture on your face and leave it on for 20 minutes. Rinse off with warm water.
Repeat the mask 1-2 times a week for best effects.

Calm Your Skin with Mung Bean Soup

Mung beans remove toxins from your skin and cool your whole body down, especially the blood. Consuming a bowl of a mung bean soup can help different conditions such as rashes, acne, cold sores and so on, from developing or decline the impact of existing ones.

Ingredients Needed
  • Five hundred milliliters of filtered water
  • One handful of dried Mung beans
  • One tablespoon of honey (to taste)

Directions:
First of all, rinse the beans well. Then in a pan, bring the water and the beans to a boil. Let them simmer for about fifteen minutes- till they open up. If you prefer sweeter taste, add the honey, otherwise, you could consume it without sweetener.
