                          STEP 8: Lie down and relax as the mask dries. Cucumber slices over the eyes are
                          cooling.


                       •  STEP 9: Rinse your face, making sure to get all traces of the mask off.
                       •  STEP 10: Conclude your facial with toner, then moisturizer.


                   Tips & Warnings


                       •  You can purchase a mask or make your own at home. Honey and egg whites are
                          very good and effective standbys. For dry skin, try using a mashed banana or
                          avocado.
                       •  The herbs that work for you will depend on your specific skin qualities.
                          Experiment with a variety of herbs until you find the ones that work best.
                       •  Avoid toners containing alcohol. They can be drying, even for oily skin.
