I was wondering if u can save the oily one mask 2 use again or not? How often do u put the mask on?
EricaStolman August 1st, 2012
If you keep it in the fridge it should be good for a week or so. You can use the mask 1-2 times per week!

I think that the Dry skin and ur Oily skin solutions are mixed…cause in the oily skin description u say “anywhere else that is a bit dry.” I think that the mayonnaise & baby oik mix is for Dry Skin?? Am I right??
EricaStolman September 11th, 2012
You’re right- I fixed it
thanks!!!

How long is the acne scar one supposed to take? Is it like a few months?
irma October 3rd, 2012
Just wondering how long can you store once its mixed together ( dull skin)
Linda November 6th, 2012
How long should the dull skin recipe be left on the skin? (It’s the only one with no time.)
Erica November 7th, 2012
Sorry I wasn’t clear about that! The dull skin recipe is actually a toner so just put it on and leave it on (best to use before bed)!

Alannah January 5th, 2013
Do you know your body absorbs a lot of synthetic beauty products you use? Scary. Anyways, I have two suggestions
Make your own beauty products like the picture.

Can I add tea tree oil into the acne scars mask? I heard tea tree oil s very good for acne. And can I take turn n use those mask in a week?
Erica February 24th, 2013
yes, just be careful with using too much tea tree oil too often as it could dry out your skin!
khanh February 27th, 2013
For the acne scars mask, mine turned out very watery. Is it supposed to be like that?

Nice post about skin issues.
agezim61 March 17th, 2013
Thanks for these tips….. I like the fact that the remedies are in expensive to make. I will be trying the one for dry skin! Can you clarify why “real” mayonaise has to be used rather than salad cream? Just curious!!
Jen April 10th, 2013
Hey just wondering what other dairy item you could use instead of yogurt, could you use cottage cheese or sour cream instead? Thank you.
Erica April 11th, 2013
yogurt is your best bet because it is filled with great probiotics!
Jessica April 18th, 2013
My acne one came out runny as well. Is that okay? And how long can it be kept?
Erica April 22nd, 2013
That’s normal!! I would keep it for a week, in the fridge and use it as often as you like
