Banana Cream Mask: After-Sun Care

In the past few weeks, we’ve been dealing with a heatwave and high humidity.  Beaches were packed with people, especially since Middlesex County moved to stage 3 during COVID-19.  In Southern Ontario, we only have ten weeks of summer.  Therefore, WE LOVE SUMMER.  Most people re-apply sunscreen every time they come out of the water.  But some just don’t or don’t apply enough on body and face.  This results in some pretty burned bodies and faces.

Please remember to use ample sunscreen and re-apply regularly. But if you’ve made a mistake, there is a simple DIY mask that can help.

Banana Cream Mask

This mask will moisturize, hydrate, and pamper the sunburned skin.  This yummy, healthy mask can help restore the glow on your skin.  Only two ingredients are needed.

Ingredients

1 (2-inch) chunk of very ripe banana

1-2 teaspoon light or heavy cream (depends on your skin type) or full-fat coconut milk

Instructions

  • Using a small bowl and fork, mash the banana with just enough cream or coconut milk to make a smooth, spreadable paste.
  • Using your fingers, spread the banana mixture onto the face, throat, and chest.  Make sure to use a towel wrapped around your hair then lie down; relax for 20 to 30 minutes, then rinse off with warm water.
  • Use as often as desired.  Follow with toner, moisturizer if necessary.
