No matter how many products we apply to our skin, there’s nothing that can beat natural ingredients. After all, they ensure you get a healthy glow! You see, natural ingredients have no chemicals, and we can pick and choose which ones we want to apply. Above all, chemical-based products can leave your skin feeling extremely dry. So, how about going au naturel to hydrate the skin? We think it’s a great idea!
When it comes to prepping up a homemade face pack to moisturise the skin, picking out the right ingredients is extremely important. For the purpose of hydrating your skin, there is practically nothing better than avocados and olive oil.
Avocado is already famous in the fitness world, because it is rich in essential vitamins and nutrients. But, not many know it can be extremely helpful, when it comes to skin care as well. It contains powerful antioxidants, omega-9 and vitamins C, B and A, which can prove to be a boon for your dermal health. Moreover, avocados can deeply moisturise the skin, while also combating the action of free radicals. This means that applying avocado on your skin topically can lead to long-term benefits such as reduced fine lines, a delay in signs of ageing, protection from the sun and reduction in acne.
Olive oil, an integral part of the Mediterranean diet, is also known to have positive effects on the skin. You see, it’s rich in antioxidants, which can help you delay signs of premature ageing and at the same time, reduces the appearance of fine lines. In addition, it also has antibacterial properties which can protect your skin against breakouts and infections. To top it all, its moisturising ability is unmatched and can provide your skin with the hydration it needs in order to stay healthy.
No wonder, there are many who swear by these two ingredients, when it comes to skincare! Here’s how you can make an avocado and olive oil face mask right at home.
-2 tsp avocado, grated
– 1 tsp, olive oil

Step 1: Grate the avocado. You can also blend it in an electric mixer for a smooth paste, which will make application easier.
