DIY Facial Mask for Gorgeous, Decongested Skin! The amazing Aspirin Mask!

Share Button

Boo! Hope I didn’t scare you too badly! And no, that’s not shaving or whipped cream on my face. It’s the famous aspirin mask!  This amazing, super simple, effective and downright cheap DIY skin treatment mask is perfect for those with congested, acne prone & oily/combo skin types. It’s the best thing i’ve ever tried to elminate black & white heads which for even those of you lucky ones with beautiful normal or drier skin types can benefit from. The mask can be applied all over or just to the areas that you tend to get clogged pores and/or breakouts.  In my picture above (stop laughing at me already!) you can see I avoided the area all around my eyes as I don’t need the mask there. 

The aspirin mask isn’t just for your face though. It’s also fantastic to exfoliate off the last lingering areas of an old spray tan or self tanner or before you get sprayed/self tan to exfoliate dry spots like elbows, knees, feet/heels, wrists, etc.

So why aspirin? Aspirin is a salicylic acid which is a potent Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA). You’ve probably seen this ingredient in your acne treatment products. BHA’s are best to unclog stubborn blackheads and works wonders on shrinking adult hormonal acne which I know about all too well =(

Obviously, if you are allergic to aspirin DO NOT DO THE ASPIRIN MASK!!  If you don’t know if you’re allergic, you have extra sensitive skin or it’s your first time I recommend doing a small test patch area before diving in and doing your whole face.

How do you make the aspirin mask? Like I said, it’s soooo easy! There’s many versions of the aspirin mask but here’s my favorite recipe that i’ve been doing for many years now.

You’ll need:

  1. The cheapest generic aspirin you can find. If you can get your hands on uncoated aspirin grab it! Or you can use aspirin powder but this is more costly than a giant bottle of generic.
  2. 100% Pure, No artificial dye or fragrance added Aloe Vera Gel (available at any drug store, Target, etc)
  3. Sturdy spoon to crush the aspirins.
  4. Piece of wax paper, plastic wrap or a pinch bowl like the one in the pic to crush and mix up the mask.

To make the mask:

  1. Simply take 5-8 aspirin depending how much of your skin you’ll be masking. If you’re doing just your nose or chin you’ll only need 2 or 3. 
  2. Take one aspirin at a time on your wax paper, pinch bowl, etc and crush each one into a powder with your spoon.
  3. Then add a few pea size drops of Aloe Vera Gel and mix into the aspirin to get a smooth paste. Make sure not to use too much of the aloe vera gel which will result in a very running texture that will drip off your face. Start with a small amount of aloe vera gel and add more if needed.
  4. Finally, apply the mask where needed! Be careful not to get it too close or in the nostrils as it can cause sneezing but using the aloe vera gel will help elminate this.

Other mixing mediums that you can use is pure organic honey like Manuka, Pure Jojoba oil if you have drier skin and glycerin.  I don’t recommend using just plain water because you are guaranteed to have a major sneezing fit. You definitely want a thicker base.

Wear the mask for 8-12 minutes and rinse off with luke warm water. For extra exfoliation wet your finger tips and very gently massage your face with the mask after it’s already dried, before rinsing off completely.  **I personally like to do this before I take a shower so I can easily rinse off every trace of the mask. You can use the mask 1-2 times a week or as needed. Remember that while exfoliation is essential to reveal beautiful, glowing skin you can easily exfoliate too much or too aggressively so don’t go too crazy. Less is more!

That’s it! If you end up trying the aspirin mask Tweet or FaceBook me a picture of you! And if you have a different recipe that you love please share it with the rest of us here under the comments.  Happy masking and hello beautiful skin!

xoxo, Tiffany 🙂

    I might have to try this mask since I have all the ingredients haha!! But just so you know, the FOTE Aloe Vera Gel isn’t 100% natural – if you notice it just says 100% gel which is true enough but misleading. If you look on the back it does have other things besides aloe vera in the ingredients. But I use it on scrapes, or sunburns and stuff all the time and it helps with the healing so it still works…but I will def. buy a more natural brand after I’m done using up my massive bottle.

    was just wondering, you mentioned the purity of the aloe vera… what about fresh aloe vera, you know, like taking it straight from the plant? will that work as well?

    Hey Kat, try making a paste with bakings soda and plain warm water. Leave on face for about 5-10 minutes. When time is up splash fash with warm water then use a warm face cloth to gentley scrub off. Finish with cool/cold water splash. Good luck.

    I found your posting on pintrest and figured I’d give it a try; I have fairly oily skin and some larger sized pores. As I type I’m letting my face absorb this delicious new concoction and it feels great! Also waaaay cheaper than buying brand name scrubs! Plus just a small amount of the asprin really makes quite a bit for the face!Thanks for such a great idea!

    Off to try this version (as soon as I find my aloe vera!) I have used a different version, using warm water to dissolve the aspirin and honey to make it smell better, also feels better on my skin than just water. I get rare breakouts, blackheads on my nose, but my skin is also dry and sensitive.

    If you have adult hormonal acne, you should look not taking evening primrose oil as a daily supplement. It basically cures hormonal acne. The mask will treat it and ease discomfort, but will not remedy the situation. 🙂

You know that feeling when you say YES to somethin You know that feeling when you say YES to something and then a nanosecond later, you immediately regret it?🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏽‍♀️🙋‍♀️

Yes, I’ve done that many times too but the way I RETRAINED myself to stop that word from flying out of my face before I had a moment to think about what I really want to do was just that. 

It’s the Power of the Pause and it takes practice but you can absolutely make that your NEW natural reflex.

Take a pause and then memorize this phrase... “Let me check my calendar and get back to you.”

That prompt I gave you is pure magic✨ 

It gives you the white space to make an informed decision versus one under pressure or simply by your current default reflex answer.

The world all around us is moving fast enough. This is one way you can slow things down on your terms.

Once you start to put this into practice, pass it on to your friends, family members, boss, colleagues and extend the “Power of the Pause” when you’re on the receiving end. 

When you are the one going for a BIG ASK, ask them to get back to you by a specific date/time. Not only will they appreciate you for extending that space, they will fully commit to you because they truly want to without regrets or out of obligation. 

Doesn’t this sound refreshing?? Imagine how much more time you’ll CREATE for the things you actually want to do! Who’s going to give this a go?🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏾‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋🏽‍♀️
