Can spirulina be used as a facial mask?

Spirulina is originally an edible health food, but it can also be used to make facial masks. There are a lot of spirulina powders on the market, and the method of making spirulina facial masks is also very simple, and once a week is enough.

Method 1

Pour about 5 grams of spirulina powder into a bowl, add egg white (make a small hole in the egg and slowly pour out the egg white. Generally, one egg is enough for 3 times), add a little honey, stir well and apply on clean face. Watch TV or music quietly for half an hour. After the mask is dry, wash it off with clean water. You will find that your skin becomes smooth, delicate, white and rosy. Basically, you can do this once a week.

Note: Do not talk or make facial movements while the mask is on your face, otherwise it will affect the quality.

Method 2

1. Take 50 grams of algae powder, add appropriate amount of water and stir to make it into a paste, put it on a dish and spread it into a layer of about 5 mm, put it in the freezer of the refrigerator and freeze it until it is frozen, then take it out. As soon as the algae paste melts and softens, put it in the freezer to freeze. After repeating 3 to 4 times, the algae cells of the spirulina will break through and the nutrients will overflow. After this processing, it will become an excellent material for making a facial mask. Place the samples in the freezer until ready for use. Take out a small piece of sample and wait for it to melt and soften.

2. Add a small amount of egg white, honey and water to make a "facial mask", apply it on the face, and wash it off after a while.

3. Take out a small piece of fresh algae from the household pulper and mix it well before using it as a "facial mask".
