My Favorite DIY Sheet Masks
A sheet mask is my favorite thing ever!! It’s so convenient and if you do it right you can do one everyday!! I’ve done some research on skin friendly ingredients and the magic they work on your skin. Why not share with my favorite people!? So here are some of my favorite skin combos along with their benefits and ways to use them!
I bought these sheet masks from Amazon to use with my homemade honey masks and found a few recipes for other masks that I’ve come to love!!
With these masks you simply make the tea the way you would a normal cup of tea and blend all liquid ingredients together with a small whisk in a bowl while the tea is still warm to make sure that the oils blend well. I store mine in tightly sealed tupperware containers in the fridge so I can easily grab one and go!! Each recipe makes approximately 25 to 30 masks if you use the suggested sheets as they are very thin and absorb a lot of liquid.
Green Tea & Honey
This mask is intensely hydrating, anti-inflammatory and acne reducing. I use this sheet mask once a week but it can be used daily for more irritated skin. It leaves skin bright, soft and firm.
8oz Organic Green Tea made with Distilled Water
2 Tablespoons Raw Honey dissolved
1 Teaspoon Vitamin E Oil
1 Teaspoon Jojoba Oil
1 Teaspoon Tea Tree Oil
Milk & Honey
Honey on it’s own is an incredible addition to any skin care routine for all skin types. Milk is hydrating and exfoliating and helps to improve complexion.
3 Tablespoons Whole Milk
2 Tablespoons Raw Honey dissolved
1 Tablespoon fresh Aloe
Lavender & Chamomile Tea
With this mask, relaxation is a must! I use this after a day in the sun when my skin is thirsty and irritated. It heals my skin while giving it a soft, hydrated glow.

Daily use. This baby is great for daily use. Raw Honey is great for balancing your skins pH levels, removing dead skin, decreasing acne inflammation and helps to remove acne causing bacteria. I spread the honey all over my skin and place a plain sheet mask right over it and relax my nerves for at least 20 to 30 minutes then rinse with warm water.
Raw Honey
I’ve got a million more but I’ll stop here for now!! Feel Free to add in your favorite therapeutic essential oils to any of these masks for an added boost!!
