I was reading about good face masks and saw a lot of things about aspirin masks, but I am not really sure what they are.

Do you just splash in on your face and let it dry?

I like to mix it with lemon juice, coconut oil and a bit of water (but you can add anything you would normally) make it into a paste and spread it on your face. Let it dry an gently rub it on your face before washing off! Makes my skin really soft and evens out my skin tone :)

I take 3 or 4 uncoated aspirin, crush them up and add a few drops of water to make a paste. Then I mix that with plain yogurt, clover honey, and a splash of lemon juice. Aspirin contain an acid very similar to the one in most acne products and can help clear your skin. Yogurt contains lactic acid, which promotes cell turnover and moisture retention. Lemon acts like an astringent, closing pores. Honey is antiseptic and antibacterial, and also contains trace amounts of hydrogen peroxide which can lighten dark marks/acne scars. :)
