Vintage peel off mask with powdered gelatine and milk

Ok ladies, so we don't have always the meanings to go to the spa to look pretty but i have a vintage recipe that you will love. It leaves your skin flawless and beautiful.
So ...lets get started : we need a small bag of powdered gelatine and some milk. Yes, the gelatine that you use for cooking - soufflés, jellies, mousses, cheesecakes, flans and pies etc.
 It makes great pore stripes.
Here is what you need to do:

1. Get a CLEAN makeup brush that you don't use anymore, popsicle stick or just your clean fingers anything that s comfortable for you. I prefer my brush.

2. Put 2 spoons of  clear gelatine and 1 and a half table spoon of milk in a small cup and mix it together until it becomes a paste. Milk hydrates and replenishes the skin, leaving it glowing and radiant. You can use any milk you want, but just for the record, don't scrimp on the fat. The thicker and creamier it is, the better. It hydrates your skin even more, moisturizing it with the vitamins and proteins from the fat.

3. Mix them in a bowl and then put them for 5 to 7 seconds on the microwave. You should get a gooey product.

4. TEST it on the back of your hand, DO NOT apply on your face without testing.

5. Put a layer -not very thing or thick- something in between- on your nose and face AVOIDING the eye/brow area.

6. Wait for it to dry out - if its too dried out when you try to peel off and it hurts, just put a bit of water on that area and it will soften immediately.

7.Peel off

I hope this helped,

Love,

Sophie
