Whether face masks or body masks:

If you prefer a very basic "recipe", you can always mix any of the powders with plain water. However, to step your home remedies up a notch, try using different recipes for different areas of body.  

Be creative! Important Note: The amount of ingredients contained in the above home remedies are approximately enough to do smaller areas of the body (enough for face and neck area –except where noted). It's perfectly okay to add a little more or use a little less of any ingredient. To use for hands and feet, you will need to increase recipe proportionately with the area you want to cover. Please avoid contact with area around the eye, if doing a face mask. Also for both face masks and body masks, do a small patch test to make sure you are not allergic to any ingredients, prior to applying mask to entire area.
