I made this fresh mask for a friend of mine who is experiencing an unexpected and unexplained breakout. Honey Aloe Facial Mask, with its blend of fresh aloe and honey, was so soothing and brought immediate relief. The whipping cream softened her skin. She loved it! I did not use any aromatic oils so as not to further irritate her skin, but you can add a few drops of your favorite essential oils if you'd like.

Blending Procedure:

1. Cut the aloe from your plant and weigh 13 ounces. Wash the aloe under warm running water. Place entire aloe leaf in a food processor and process until very watery.
   
   
2. Add honey and cream and process further to mix.
   
   
3. Add oats and process until a paste-like mixture forms. If mixture is too runny, add more oats and process until it thickens. If it's too thick, add more cream or a bit more aloe. To use, apply a smooth layer to freshly cleaned face and rest for about 15 minutes until mask hardens. Remove with a soft towel soaked in water or rose hydrosol, or remove simply by rinsing from face until mask is gone. Pat excess water from face and follow with moisturizer of your choice. Enjoy!
