I had just started experiencing dry skin patches on my face. I tried all kinds of facial creams nothing was helping. My teenage daughter loves trying homemade beauty treatments. Since she does have beautiful skin from these treatments, I asked her if she knew anything that would help me get rid of dry skin. This is what she applied on my face. First she used two egg whites which she put all over my face including forehead and neck with a napkin. I had to wait until it dried, it was left it on for 15 minutes. Then she removed the egg white with warm water and washcloth. Next she dipped a napkin into virgin olive oil and applied this to my face. Last she opened a vitamin E capsule and applied the liquid under my eyes. This was left on overnight. In the morning I washed my face with warm water. My skin felt as soft as a babies! The dry patches were gone! When I applied my face makeup it went on smoothly. I even look younger!

For relieving puffy, tired eyes my daughter does this home beauty remedy. She steeps two chamomile tea bags in boiling water, then removes them, puts the tea bags in the freezer until frozen. Next she lays down with the frozen tea bags on her eyes. She leaves them on for 15 minutes. Her puffy, tired eyes are revived until she stays up late the next time!
