When egg whites dry, they have a temporary tightening effect which can help tone and and shrink pores. Simply beat up an egg white and apply onto the face for 10 to 15 minutes. Rinse off with warm water. As for the yolk, it can also be used on its own as a mask for healing blemishes. Egg yolks also very high in vitamin A and you can mix it with a little honey for a moisturizing mask.

    Asprin && honey work really good = )
    a good mask is to sprinkle some non coated aspirin pills so that they get kinda gritty .. add a dab of honey && rub it into your face && let it stay for about 10 minutes .. then rinse.
    aspirin alone is great to exfoliate.
    as for the others .. i `ll deffinately be sure to try them.
    thanks for the great tips <3
