Does anyone know a good face mask recipie for break outs?

i wash my face and everything everyday, i just wanted to try something new tonight :)Does anyone know a good face mask recipie for break outs?
Try the aspirin mask!





Dampen your face with a bit of water first. Then you take 2-4 pills of aspirin, put a few drops of water on until it is absorbed, puffs up and breaks apart. If you have any Cetaphil, it works great with this and helps the aspirin stay on your face better. If not, add just a bit more water until it becomes a little more pasty. It's not going to become LIKE a paste so you do not have to crush it or anything. Simply spread it evenly over your face. It won't cover your entire face but that's fine.





Leave it on for about 10 minutes or until it dries up. An annoying thing about this mask is that it dries up pretty quickly unless you use Cetaphil or something similar to keep it moist. Thus, little bits of aspirin will start falling of your face and try not to put a lot under your nose because you'll end up sniffing it up and sneezing.





After 10 minutes (or longer, if you'd prefer, although this may lead to dry skin), put some Cetaphil or water on your hands and scrub the aspirin in little circular motions. If you have sensitive skin, try not to leave it on too long, don't scrub too hard or you'll scratch your skin, and use only your fingertips to scrub. Try to do this for about a minute. Wash off when you're done and you'll end up with extremely tiny pores, reduced redness, and a super glowy face. I only do it about once a week. Anymore than that and it tends to dry out my skin.
