However, in a big amount it can cause slight skin burns, therefore, for making a mask you need only about eight cloves of raw garlic. Mash them and apply to the face for about 15 min. Remove the mask with a warm cloth and rinse it off.
2. Bran and Baking Soda Mask. Bran is the outer layer of wheat or cereal grains and soda is used as a scrub. To make a mask you need to add mixture of baking soda and water in bran. Apply the mask to your face and gently massage for 10-15 seconds. Rinse thoroughly and dry your face with a soft towel.
3. Lime Juice Mask. Mix limejuice and groundnut oil and apply all over the face. This mask is very effective specially in preventing acne, as limejuice turns the oil into amino acids, so your skin does not absorb the oil at all, but receives all favorable  substances.
4. Parsley Face Mask. This mask is good for fat skin and is made from a mixture of 1 teaspoon of chopped parsley and 3 teaspoons of sour cream. Leave it for 10 min and wash off with warm water.

Besides masks you can make some lotions. Here are some examples:
