Why 4: it pulls fine hair, I imagine it may cause them getting stronger and I don't want a hairy face pros: face looks cleaner, calmed, clogged pores smaller cons: pulls even very fine hair....

First of all, this isn't a chemical peel you get from an esthetician. This isn't as good as a BHA, AHA, or retinol based product. With this type of peel, you can't peel any of your skin...

Works better than any pore cleaner I ever used. Still not the result I'm looking for, but the best I've seen. The way I do it is pour some powder gelatin into a shot glass, add a bit of milk and...

I noticed that every time I tried to use this method in the past, it did not deliver great results. I realize now that many of us may be over cooking the recipe. My latest attempt, I heated my milk...

I have been making homemade masks for about a month. As an avid juicer, I've come to discover most the juices I drink are also great to apply to my skin. Tonight I made a juice (and a mask) of...

I was trying to find something similar to what I used here. Well I guess this is kind of right. I used Knox Gelatine to create a peel off mask (it's supposed to act like Bioré strips). ...

All I can say is OUCH. I mixed some gelatin with milk and melted it in the microwave. Then, I applied to my entire face and let dry fully. Peeling off this mask was so painful - it tugs at your...

No need to use milk for this mask, water does the trick. After heating it up in the microwave I add 1 drop of essential oil (Lavender, tea tree, etc) to mask the smell of the gelatin. After...

The trick is your face has to be SUPER clean and dry. I do a bakingsoda scrub that removes all oil and exfoliates right before, then is nothing between the gunk and the mixture. Works...

Works great. I've master tweaked the recipe though! Make a cup of hot green tea. (Milk smells bad warm in the recipe.) Add gelatin. Use same ratios, equal parts tea and gelatin. Stir. ...

It didn't really work that well for me. I mixed one tablespoon of milk and one tablespoon of powdered unflavored gelatin mix and heated in the microwave for 10 seconds. Applied on my nose and...

My boyfriend and I tried this out and were satisfied with the results, plus the price is just unbeatable! We used equal parts milk and unflavored gelatine. For one person I'd say about 1/2 tsp of...

So much fun to use :) I've tried it twice. The first time I used milk, and yikes...never again. The smell of hot milk is utterly disgusting. Water works fine for me. I also use a tissue, which...

This is the only thing that works for removing my blackheads! I've used pore strips before and they just hardly ever get anything out. I don't like to remove my blackheads manually as my nose will...

This works very well. The previous reviewer is right that it dries quickly, but you have to be prepared. 1. wash your face and dry it. 2. prepare a strip of paper towel or strip of...

I got this off a DIY skincare solution website, which claimed this simple household recipe worked just the same, if not better, than Biore pore strips. I had a bit of cloggage at the time, so I...
