Want a face lift without the hassle, cost or surgery? All you need is one thing: egg whites. For real! Egg whites can mimic the effects of a face lift because they tightening the skin, make the the face feel firm and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Reaping the benefits of an egg white facial are easy so you won’t have any trouble doing this at home. First, separate the egg white from the egg yolk. Once you have a bowl of only egg whites, mix them with a fork as if you were making scrambled eggs. You can either stop at this step and use that on your face for about 10 minutes before rinsing with warm water, or take it one step further by adding ingredients to enhance your skin. Some possibilities of ingredients you can mix-in are avocado if your skin needs some hydration, grated potato if you have redness or irritated skin, and even an apple after reducing it to a pulp in a food processor which is an awesome natural exfoliator.
