Use a plastic container to mix the ingredients

Empty one packet of gelatin into the cup (one packet is around one big tablespoon of gelatin)
Add one tablespoon of honey
Honey
Add 5-8 drops of tea tree oil (depending on how strong you want the mask to be)
Add one tablespoon of milk
NOW MIX IT UP!!:)
I use a fork to stir the mixture until it forms a chunky consistency.
It should look like this:
Microwave the mixture (without the fork of course!) for 10 seconds (not any longer!) Heating the mixture up will soften it and make it more creamy, perfect to apply to the face.
Touch the mixture and make sure it isn’t too hot to the touch, because the face is sensitive to heat.
Quickly apply the cream ALL over your face – it begins to harden right away, so time is of the essence!
This is fun! It gets sticky, so make sure you avoid your hairline and eyebrows. This peel will actually take off some of the peach fuzz on your face (which is a good thing!)
Now we wait!!
Let the peel dry for about 20 to 25 minutes. It will start to harden which makes it hard to laugh:)
While you are waiting for it to dry, I recommend listening to soothing music and closing your eyes. Create that “SPA” experience at home, meditate on something that makes you happy and relax.
Is it time yet?
Take off the mask when you feel like you did botox on your entire face (lol).
Wow! It comes off in one piece!
It can be a little painful to take the mask off, just to warn you, especially around the cheek area and nose. The mask sucks out everything from your pores and it also peels away some of that peach fuzz, which can sting just a little. I’m a big baby, so I go really really slow. You decide what you wanna do!
Once you peel off all of the mask, wash your face with a gentle cleanser to remove any leftover bits you missed.
Your skin will feel soft, smooth and rejuvenated!
I do this mask once a week, and anytime my nose has blackheads. It works wonders!
