½ very ripe avocado + 1 tablespoon fresh cream + 1 tablespoon liquid honey.
Avocado and fresh cream are powerhouse ingredients for deeply nourishing skin. Honey offers healing properties that enhance skin's appearance and soothe irritation.
1. Mash the ½ avocado in a bowl using a fork.
2. Stir in the cream and honey until you have a smooth, homogeneous paste.
3. Apply to dry areas like feet, hands, elbows, and knees. Leave on for 10 minutes, then rinse with lukewarm water.
For best results, use immediately.
