How to make it

  • Gently heat together one packet unflavored gelatin, the juice of one lemon and one orange.
  • Heat until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
  • Let cool until almost set.
  • Whisk in one egg yolk.
  • Apply a thin layer to the face and neck areas.
  • Leave on for 20 to 25 minutes, or until dry.
  • Rinse off completely with warm water.
  • Pat dry with a soft towel.
  • This is most effective when applied to clean, warm, moist skin. The gelatin has a softening effect on the skin. As it dries it will help firm and tone the skin and the lemon and orange juice will exfoliate, stimulate and reduce brown spots. The egg yolk moisturizes and hydrates the skin.
  • *Be careful if you have allergies to any of these ingredients.
