Benefits of egg and lemon masks for the skin
Egg whites have long been known for their skin-solidening properties thanks to their high protein content. When applied to the skin, whites help shrink pores, reduce excess oil and support the recovery of tired skin. Combined with lemon - a rich source of vitamin C and antioxidants, it helps reduce wrinkles, brighten the skin and prevent signs of premature aging.
In addition to the two main ingredients, honey added to the recipe not only helps the mixture to be smooth but also a natural moisturizer, helping the skin not to dry after use. If you are sensitive to egg odor, you can add a few drops of lavender or jasmine essential oil for ease.
