Summer is definitely upon us. Hopefully, you are taking precautions against too much exposure to the sun while enjoying the outdoors. Here is a recipe for a facial mask from my friends at Campaign for Safe Cosmetics and Spa Index.com This mask is not only good for dry skin, would be very soothing for a sunburn.

Frozen Egg & Honey Facial Mask
Recommended for dry skin, this is particularly soothing on sunburned skin.
Ingredients:
1 egg
1/2 cup coconut oil, melted (but not hot)
1 tablespoon honey
Instructions:
- Beat the egg in a small bowl until frothy and well-mixed. Slowly add the liquid coconut oil and honey, beating until your mask is the consistency of mayonnaise.
- Take an empty toilet tissue roll and set it on end in a clean bowl. Spoon mixture into the cardboard toilet paper roll. Place tube, in the bowl, in the freezer overnight.
- To use, peel away just the top 1/4 inch of the cardboard roll and smooth the frozen stick over your face (think of it as a push-up pop). Leave your mask on for 5 to 10 minutes, then rinse off with warm water.
-Return the cream stick covered with plastic wrap and frozen between uses. Keeps indefinitely.
