1. Avocado Face Mask – This face mask is great for locking moisture into the skin with the healthy fats from the avocado, and it has acne-fighting power from the honey.

Ingredients:

• ¼ of an avocado
• 1 tablespoon of plain yogurt
• 1 teaspoon of honey

Directions: Mash the avocado, then add in the yogurt and honey. Mix everything until combined. Apply a good layer to your face, let it sit for 10 minutes, then rinse off.

2. Vanilla Mint Lip Scrub – To brighten dull chapped lips with a sweet minty scent

Ingredients:

• 3 tablespoons coconut oil
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3 drops peppermint essential oil
• 2 drops vitamin E oil (optional, helps moisturize your lips even more!)

3. Apple Cider Vinegar Hair Mask – Hair feeling a little dull? This simple mask is for you. The apple cider vinegar in this is great for clarifying and detangling, getting grime and build up out of your hair while keeping it soft and shiny.

Ingredients:

• ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
• ¼ cup of water
• juice of half of a lemon
• 1 tablespoon of honey
• 3-6 drops of lavender essential oil (optional, if you don’t like the smell of ACV this can help tone it down!)

Directions: Mix all ingredients together in a bowl, then cover your hair with the mixture. Let it sit in your hair for 10 minutes, or for a deeper treatment you can leave it in for up to half an hour. Rinse it out with warm water.
