I am more of a wine drinker than a beer girl. Although I do like a cold corona with lime while sitting on the beach. But lets be honest, that only happens once every couple of years! Luckily my hubby is a beer drinker and we always have something in the fridge, so I never have an issue whipping up this mask.
What you need: 1 egg white; ½ cup beer (any brand); and 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice. No limes handy feel free to use some lemon juice!
How it works:
Beer is a soothing cleanser. “It contains B vitamins, hops,
saccharides, and yeast, which help dissolve dead skin cells and increase the
skin’s luminosity. When mixed with egg white, the yeast in
the beer creates a filmy mask that hydrates and improves the elasticity
of the skin. Adding a dash of lime, a source of vitamin C, helps to
clear pores and fade brown spots.
Do it yourself: Combine the egg white and beer with the lime juice. Slather onto the face. After 10 minutes, rinse with warm water.
Wait! If your hair is feeling a little lifeless and flat, use the yolk and remainder of beer to make yourself a hair masque!
Beer is definitely worth trying out to make your hair feel a little fuller. And, in order to make this
mask even better, simply add one egg yolk. So one egg yolk and 2 oz of beer (some claim it should be flat or that you should cook off the alcohol) I just use it straight from the bottle – how simpler can it be! Apply this mixture on your damp hair, wrap it in plastic and let it sit over the next 30 minutes.
