First, gather your ingredients: 1 teaspoon of active dry yeast, 2 tablespoons of plain yogurt, and optionally, a dash of honey for extra moisture.
Preparing the Mixture
In a small bowl, mix the yeast with a bit of warm water to activate it—let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
Stir in the yogurt until you get a smooth paste.
If desired, add honey to enhance spreadability.
Apply this to your face, avoiding the eye area, and relax for 10-15 minutes.

Patch Test First: Dab a small amount on your inner arm to check for sensitivity.
Even Layer: Use a brush or fingers for uniform coverage.
Rinse Gently: Use lukewarm water to remove, followed by your usual moisturizer.
Sustainability tip: Use leftover yogurt from breakfast to minimize waste.
