Egg White Mask

I've been using this every other night for a few weeks now and it seems to have improved the condition of my skin. I'm not sure it has done anything for my acne itself, but I haven't had any new break outs either. I LOVE the way my skin feels after using this. It's as soft as a babies skin! Well, ignoring the bumps from acne :P I also saw improvement in the redness and inflammation of existing acne. The biggest problem is that it smells disgusting when you first put it on. I put honey and lemon juice in the mix (honey for moisturizing, lemon juice for bleaching of past acne marks) but it doesn't do much to mask the smell. If you've ever smelled a sheep, goat, or wet hay, that's pretty much what it smells like. I'm not sure if organic, free range eggs would smell more like grass or not but I'm going to try and find organic eggs and find out. Bottom line, I will continue to use it because I like what it does for my skin but if you have a sensitive nose or stomach, beware!!! And if you love eggs, you might find yourself not loving them as much anymore.

Before i start talking bout how amazing this mask is, i gotta tell you bout my skin first. I'm 18 and I'm Asian. I've been having acne since i was 12 and I've experienced many types of acne - black head, white head, little bumps and some nasty breakouts - you name it i have it. I've used this mask before cos my mom told me too but i didn't like it cos i thought it was messy but now i change my mind. So here is how i use it. Break an egg and take a bit of the egg white, use a clean fork to stir it til you see the bubbles. Use a cotton pad - those you use to remove make up - to spread the egg white on your face. It won't be messy this way. I normally use it after the shower at night and leave it on til the next morning. You can leave it on for an hour or two and wash it off that's fine. For me, the egg white mask is like a light barrier between my skin and my pillow. I've been using the egg white by itself every night for 3 nights or so and the blemishes start to fade. Highly recommended !

This is a great facial mask. You can really feel it working. About 20 minutes after I washed it off I glanced back in the mirror and the redness was really reduced! If you can get past the smell and thought of putting egg on your face, this is not a cure but defintley a great help.

I was glad to have found this blog because I was trying everything the doctor prescribed to me that only worked for a short period of time. I was tired of spending money and finding myself still waking up with bad acne. I tried Proactiv which works, but requires you to keep buying it or else the acne will just repeat itself if you don't use it. I have been using egg whites now for about 2 months and its working pretty good for me. It's taking a little time though, being that my skin has a lot of darkspots from where I popped my pimples. I beat my egg whites with a tblspoon of honey and a tblspoon of lemon. I apply it with the back of the spoon (lol kinda crazy but it works 4 me) or my hands (until I buy a brush). I let it stay on for a whole day if I dont have to go anywhere, otherwise I do an overnight mask. I am african american, so I use ambi (everyday) to make the dark spots fade. Overall, I give egg whites a 9.5 on my scale.

For what it is - a 20p egg white! - it does a really good job :) I mixed it with some honey and didn't encounter any of the horrible smell anyone else did :D It was quite messy to apply - I smoothed it on lightly with my fingers and had to lean over the sink for the whole 15 minutes it was on because even though it dried on my face quickly it was dripping off my chin and nose a lot! It left my skin really soft too :)

I have no idea why other reviewers are complaining about the smell. Are they using rotten eggs? I didn't notice ANY scent whatsoever when applying this mask. Also, I found that the mask dried a lot more quickly than other reviewers had reported. It takes about 5 minutes to reach "mostly dry" and maybe another 5 to become completely dry. I've only been using this for a week, so I can't make a judgment call on how effective it is at clearing up my face. I'm using it every other day or so...and honestly, I'm not sure if that's too often or too infrequent. I haven't seen any other reviewers commenting on frequency, so, whatever. It's just egg, and it doesn't seem to be doing any harm. For twenty cents per treatment...why not? Also, if you search on YouTube, there are tutorials on how to combine egg white + toilet paper to make imitation Biore strips. I tried it once, but I didn't leave the paper on my face for long enough. If you try this, definitely leave the paper on for at least a half hour. Handy tip: take the egg out of the fridge for about an hour before you apply this mask. Smearing a room-temperature egg on your face is far more pleasant than using an ice cold one!

i seperated the egg and whisked the egg white until it was kinda foamy and put it on my face. i waited about half of an hour and rinsed it off with hot water. i definately noticed the tighter feeling but when i went to put on makeup i noticed i didnt have to cover up my recent breakout as much. i will use it consistantly for a couple days, i hope it works! school starts in like a week too... ! i definately recomend this :)

though at first i thought smoothing egg white on my face was odd, i soon decided the benefits were more than worth it! while the egg dries on your face it does make your skin feel tight and possibly slightly itchy for a few minutes, but my skin quickly adapted to the sensation and before long it was barely noticeable. after i had rinsed the mask off, my skin looked instantly smoother and i had a much more even skin tone. even my larger blemishes were smaller and less red! and the best part is: these results lasted all day! so so so happy i tried this :)

This is a really wonderful solution! I read about trying an egg white mask online, and decided to give it a go. It works wonders, reducing redness and puffiness, and helps clear up my acne! I use it three times a week, and I use every part of the egg. First I separate the egg white and egg yolk, and I set aside the egg yolk in a bowl to be used later. I also keep the shell too! I mix a little bit of honey into the egg whites, and stir until stiff (until bubbles appear). with my fingers I take up a small amount, a rub it all over my face. I then take the shell, and peel off the skin inside and place it over some areas that need extra targeting (ie. blackheads, pimples...) I then wait about 30 min, then wash it off with warm water. Then I take the egg yolk (a natural moisturizer), and with my fingers take up a small amount a rub it all over my face. Wait another 10 to 30 min, I wash it off with warm water. After that I splash my face with cold water or rub an ice cube over my face to reduce the look of pores. This inexpensive treatment really does work wonders!!!! It has really made my face silky smooth, and has radically reduced the appearance of acne and redness.

I used to have Acne,but I no longer do.I first used this after watching MichellePhans video on it.My skin had cysts,although not severe,blackheads and was excessively oily.I used this "recipe" once a week,but I added my own little spin to it,I would add lemon juice,as lemon juice helped further control my extremely oily skin as well as brighten my complexion.I still continue to use this.It's also known for being a wrinkle fighting mask,so hey,why not prevent another problem?lol.It can cause you to be itchy and dry out your skin too much,but overall I recommend it.Simple,cheap,affordable,great for teenagers who have NO budget lol.
