Let the mixture set on your face for between fifteen minutes and a half an hour. Before you wash your face, remove the mixture with a warm damp cloth. This next recipe is a great one to try if you have dry skin. Mash up a ripe banana and then mix it with a cup of oatmeal. This is going to create a really thick mixture which you can thin out to form a creamy paste with some milk. Avoid the area around your eyes when you spread this creamy paste on your face and allow it to sit for ten to fifteen minutes. Rinse it off with some clean water. You skin should now feel more moisturized!

Oatmeal facials can even help with really oily skin. This recipe is one of the simplest to make. Add water to natural oatmeal to make a creamy paste. Spread this paste carefully onto your face, avoiding the area around your eyes, and then allow the paste to dry completely. You will need to be patient as this can take some time. Remove from your face using your fingers once the mask has dried. This should keep your skin from feeling excessively oily, while helping it feel clean and moisturized. Rinse away any leftover oatmeal bits with water and use a soft, clean towel to pat dry.
