Folks, we did a post a few months ago on how to treat your skin after a rough winter. But hey, the beach life can be equally as harsh on your skin as icy weather. So we improved our post and made it more suitable for summer! Here are two treats for your skin!
Avocado
So they’re not easy to find when they’re ripe, but a perfect avocado will do the trick for you when your skin is cracking! Avocado is rich in oil and high in nutrition and that’s kind of all you need.
- Mash an avocado until it’s smooth.
- Apply where you are dry and leave it for 15 minutes.
- Clean it off with soft paper and then wash the rest of with water.
- Pssst, avocado does wonder for a sunburn!
Honey and Oat mask
This combination is both natural, eco-friendly and economic. A lovely treat for your summer skin as the honey is soothing! Honey also works as a bacterial killer and is great if you have acne, is also rich in antioxidants, minerals and vitamins. Oats are also great for acne skin and is anti-inflammatory.
- 1 tablespoon of honey and 1 tablespoon of oat is all you need.
- Mix them together and apply on your face.
- Leave it for 15 minutes and then gently clean it off with water!
- Pssst, if your skin is extra dry, adding a tablespoon of natural yoghurt will do the trick!

I am definitely going to give the avocado tip a try! I am going on vacation soon, so I may even need to use for a sun burn treatment. Thanks for the great tips!

These sound like great skincare treats but I love Avocado so much I don’t think I could bare to put it on my face because I would eat it all off…haha 🙂

I love love love LOVE DIY masking! Honey works WONDERS on skin, so I’m so glad you included that recipe! I’ve also done a mixture of turmeric and plain, natural yogurt! It makes skin super soft and exfoliates gently. 🙂

There are so many great ingredients for our skin, that we consume or have in our kitchen ! DYI masks are my favorite! I never tried oats on my face, but it sounds so interesting!

So true, instead we spend endless on money on products that kind of do the same thing as our avocado or honey! Weird, but lovely once you discover that skincare can be an affordable thing! Xx

They are indeed, so much more fun to do and definitely cheaper! Xx

I’m not sure how I could possibly use an avocado on my dry skin. I’d probably have eaten the whole avocado without even realizing it…haha! But seriously, I may have to try the avocado. They’re delicious internally and I’m sure they work pretty well on the surface of the skin as well!

Hahah same here tbh! Avocados are just too yummy, but they are yummy for the skin too! X

I never thought about avocado for my skin. Cool!

My skin loves summer, mostly because it is pretty oily and gets more controlled when it is warm outside. But avocado is a treat no matter the season.

I LOVE using honey on my face, it leaves skin feeling so luxurious and soft. I haven’t previously tried it with oats but definitely will!
It’s such a lovely one right?! Honey is so good as it’s both natural, cheap and works for anyone! And oats might be unexpected but nevertheless a working one! Xx

Great! I didn’t know that avocado was so miraculous :))) I was always told that aloe vera is perfect for a sunburn :)))
I invite you to visit my travel blog and read my latest posts… I hope you’ll like them ?

Aloe vera also does wonders for a sunburn, but avocados are often more easier to get hold of! Xx

I’ve heard of using avocado but never honey and oats! Sounds amazing.

Avocados are so yummy, almost as you don’t want to use it for the skin but eat it instead! Xx

I really want to try a honey and oat mask - shop-bought ones seem to really irritate my skin! Great post!
