If you prefer using natural products on your skin, then you will love this homemade face mask for dry skin. The benefit of making your own face masks is avoiding chemical ingredients (especially useful if you have sensitive skin). Mash up a medium-sized ripe banana into a smooth paste, then gently apply it to your face and neck. Let it set for 10 to 20 minutes, then rinse it off with cold water. Another popular mask recipe calls for 1/4 cup plain yogurt, 2 tablespoons honey and 1 medium banana.
