I'm always amazed when I see recipes containing a few ingredients but bursting with great benefits, and this is one of them.

Lemon - great cleanser, skin rejuvenator and dead skin cells remover. Perfect for oily skin or skin with problems such as inflammation, redness, pimples or acne. For other skin types, it simply cleanses well.

Honey - similar to lemon, it cleanses the skin and reduces the inflammation. Additionally, it is a gentle moisturizer.



Avocado - full of monosaturated fats, it nourishes the skin by deeply penetrating its layers. The moisture is lasting and immediate. Suitable for all skin types, especially dry skin.

Finally, retinol - a small molecule able to enter the deeper skin layers and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin.
