Merry Berry: Home-Made Blackcurrant Face Mask

Summer is a great time for home-made, natural facials. Because first, most of us have more free time in summer (we sleep less in summer, the day is longer, and some of us are even lucky enough to be on holiday!), and second, there're so many fruits and berries and vegetables around!
Blackcurrant is famous for its extraordinary content of Vitamin C as well as other antioxidants. 100g blackcurrants contains up to 300 per cent of Vitamin C daily value! Blackcurrant face mask is very easy to make and it is has a refreshing, firming, pore-tightening effect. Just mash some berries and put them through a fine sieve to get rid of the peel, then mix in a teaspoon of honey. We recommend using organic white honey, which has a very soft, buttery texture and causes no irritation even on sensitive skin.
Apply your home-made blackcurrant and honey mask evenly on your face (avoid sensitive areas around your eyes as usual) and leave it for 15 minutes. Then rinse it off with warm water.
