Ever Tried A Face Mask?

Well I hadn't until that time those three fantastic pimples threw a pimple party on my pimple-y face.
Oh you don't remember that time?
Scroll down a bit and refresh your memory.
Be ye learn-ed.
So anyway, I hadn't ever tried a face mask until tonight and oh... let me tell you...

It's divine!
(please excuse my silly face... the mask was starting to harden and this was as much as a smile as I could muster without cracking it)
I'm thinking about trying out the infamous "burning mask" tomorrow during nap time.
I'll have to fill you in if I live to tell the tale.

!!UPDATE!!
So the whole "burning mask" during nap time plan didn't quite work out as scheduled.
And by the plan... I mean nap time itself.
Nonexistent.
HOWEVER! Mask-time after work time is working out quite lovely... but let me tell you... they don't call it the "burning mask" for nothin'.

This stuff has the MOTHER of all kicks!
You put it on your face expecting a burn, and at first you're all like, "Dude, this stuff is stupid, it doesn't even wo-..."
And then you're stopped dead in your tracks, because all at once all of hell's fires are dancing on your face, and it's taking all of your will power not to dunk your head into a bath of ice water!
Okay... maybe a bit of an exaggeration, but this stuff does burn like heck for the first two-five minutes.
However, I am currently in the after-burn stages and right now my face feels cool and tingly and it's quite lovely.
So I officially recommend this mask to everybody out there!
It's great!
Plus, it's supposed to get rid of acne scars, so that's a double-plus!
I'll post the recipe below for all y'all's convenience. Thanks Alexa for letting me swipe it from ya!

The Burning Mask:
1/2 Teaspoon of Cinnamon
1/2 Teaspoon of Nutmeg
1 Teaspoon of Honey
2 Teaspoons of Lemon Juice
Mix well and apply. Leave on for thirty minutes, or ten if the burn is too much, and rinse off with warm water.
