Gelatin masks are smooth and cool. They can be peeled off the face or easily rinsed away, removing dead skin cells. After using one of these masks your face feels refreshed and new.
Combine the gelatin and fruit juice in a clean, ovenproof glass container. Heat gently to dissolve the gelatin completely (use a microwave oven for 45 seconds to 1 minute on High, or place in a double boiler on the stove top). Place the gelatin in the refrigerator and cool until almost set, about 30 minutes.
Spread a thin layer of the gelatin over your face and allow to dry. Peel off and rinse your face thoroughly with cool, clear water.
