tonight is the first night i try lemon eggwhite/yolk mask. its on me right now. And i must say, for an egg, it doesnt smell too bad. lol its prety weird feeling though.

Anyone try it?

i can feel it tightening my skin.

Did it fade your red makrs?

If so, how long did it take to see results?

Was it over all success ful?

How did it make your skin look/feel?



Answers to any of those questions, or random thoughts or comments about it would be greatly appriciated

DON'T use the yoke, i think it makes you break out. all the good stuff (protein, ect.) is in the white, and the bad crap is in the yoke.

i haven't used it enough to see signifigant improvements, but i'll try anything lol

Ummm yea it feels good when its on you, makes your skin feel fresh after you wash it off and then like about 20 mins later, ur skin feels kinda glowly after use, so it gives urself a nice complextion. but for me it doesnt last too long then i just look back to normal the next day

Not that I'd ever put anything found in my kitchen on my face....eeeewww....

I'd include the yolk....That''s actually where the good stuff is..... cholesterol, lecithin and essential fatty acids (linolenic and linoleic acids, EPA and DHA) if you happen to have Omega Eggs......

Just out of cutiosity wouldn't the acididty (pH 3) of the lemon juice denature the protein in the egg white......
I know you can "cook" shrimp in lemon juice by the acid denaturing the protein)....Maybe It's just me but it sounds counter-productive......

And how are eggs supposed to help acne???
