Hi!
So, I have been wanting to try some diy facials for a while, and I started some Tuesday, but I'm worried I shouldn't use all of them every day. I am testing a baking soda scrub ( 1 1/2 tsp water, 1/2 tsp baking soda), honey cinnamon mask ( 2 tbsp honey, 1/4 tsp cinnamon ), and apple cider toner ( 4 tsp water, 1 tsp ACV ); along with my moisturizing, and Olay Pro X spinning brush.
My question is, which of these should I use daily, which weekly, which biweekly, etc.?

Thanks! I don't think I have very sensitive skin, but I'll still keep it to 2/3 times a week on the baking soda. What would you reccomend for the Olay Pro X?

Hey Marissa! I'm warning you now., don't do more than 2 to 3 facials a week.! Too many woll irritate the skin, and could produce more oil, hence inviting acne on the face. When I was in the 8th geade, I did like one a day and I started gettimg bumps on my forehead. I thought my skin was dirty , so then I did another mask, or washed my face again. Dooont put too many chemicals on your face 24/7, because in the long run it will have aloot of drawbacks. Look at my forehead in my pictures. I'm wearing a green sweater. Yeah, THAT was when it was fading away...! Good luck! You are beautifulll! (:
