7) De-puff: Coffee Turmeric Mask The Recipe: 1 Tbsp of instant or ground coffee 1 Tbsp of powdered turmeric 1 Tbsp of Greek yogurt Mix together. Apply it all over your face, making sure to put it under the eye area as well. Leave the mask on for 20 minutes before removing it with a warm, damp towel. Why it works: "The coffee in this mask is full of caffeine and antioxidants," says Athena Hewett, esthetician and founder of <a href="http://www.monasterymade.com/" id="91f2cbbe-df75-30ff-acf4-3fccd7545b36"> Monastery </a> .

8) Moisturizing: Honey Rosehip Avocado Mask The Recipe: 1 Tbsp of honey 10 drops of rosehip seed oil 1/4 of a ripe avocado Combine all the ingredients together in a food processor (this helps smooth out the avocado). Rinse the mask off after five minutes. Why it works: Rosehip seed oil improves skin texture and strengthens cellular walls, and the avocado is moisturizing and calming to the skin, says Hewett. With the extra boost of moisturizing honey, you have a thirst-quenching mask perfect for dry skin. Jewelyn Butron

9) Smoothing: Papaya Greek Yogurt Mask The Recipe: 2 Tbsp of ripe, mashed papaya 1 Tbsp of full-fat plain yogurt Mix the papaya and yogurt together and then apply it to a clean face, neck, and dcollet in gentle, upward-sweeping motions. Leave the mask on for three to 10 minutes, depending on your skin's sensitivity. Wash off with tepid water and follow with toner and facial moisturizer. Why it works: Papaya is high in vitamin C and a protein-dissolving enzyme called papain, so this mask is perfect for smooth, clear skin, explains Rachel Winard, founder of <a href="https://soapwallakitchen.com/collections" id="09904e3c-5276-3524-a396-8db1eab5f069"> Soapwalla </a> .

10) Acne-Fighting: Triple-Action Turmeric Mask The Recipe: 1 Tbsp of organic Greek yogurt 1 tsp of honey 1/2 tsp turmeric 1 tsp aloe Combine all the ingredients together and leave on for 10 minutes. Why it works: I call this a triple-action mask because it is anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, and super-hydrating, explains Vargas. Honey and aloe are natural antiseptics, great for keeping your skin clear. Turmeric is anti-inflammatory, and organic Greek yogurt will boost your skins hydration." Jewelyn Butron

11) Calming: Potato Turmeric Mask The Recipe: One grated white potato One grated cucumber A few drops of rose water 1/4 tsp of turmeric Blend ingredients together and rinse after 10 minutes. Use a cloth to help make sure you get all the grated veggies off your face.
