I first shared this recipe with Lemon Basil herb of the week back in 2013. I felt it was time to bring it back, as the lemon basil (Sweet Dani to be exact) is ready for harvest. This is a quick simple recipe you can make and use right away or chill in the fridge of a short time for soothing qualities.

Lemon Basil Facial Mask
- handful of lemon basil leaves
- 1/2 of an avocado
- 1 tsp. lemon juice
- 1 tsp. honey
Pulverize the fresh
new lemon basil leaves in a blender or food processor. Peel the avocado
and mash. Add avocado to basil in blender, along with lemon juice
and honey. Blend until smooth. If chilling, cover directly on the surface, with plastic wrap to keep out oxygen.
To USE: Smear this mixture all over
your clean, dry face, don't get too close to your eyes. Then leave on 15 to 30
minutes or as long as you want. Rinse off with lukewarm water.
Follow with a moisturizer.
