10 Masks, Washes, And More For Your Skin

Each of the recipes includes a brief introduction, serving sizes, and various labels to identify them as Vegan, Gluten-Free etc. Several also include tips for modifying the recipe, serving or making the best use of your blender.

Helpful And Surprising

Disappointingly only a few of the recipes included a picture although each of those is beautifully staged. I found that throughout the book the blending tips were very helpful in providing information that you wouldn’t necessarily find in an instruction manual but which could make the difference in a recipe.

Finding the Masks, Washes, And More For Your Skin recipes included in the Things You Can Eat section was very strange. Otherwise, I found the selection to be excellent.

The sheer variety of recipes which can be created with a blender was surprising. The fact that you can make so many different things with that one piece of equipment is convenient and helps keep down with the number of dishes you have to clean.

For the included recipe I have chosen the Skin-Brightening Kiwi And Lemon Facial Mask because it is quick, easy and different. Enjoy!
