So Far So Good!, September 3, 2009
By alleszq27

"I literally JUST made this and washed it off, (typing with Honey and Bananas on my hands) =], and so far it's great! All the awesome reviews really persuaded me to try this one. I've had terrible stress acne lately and this really seemed to calm all the redness and sensitivity. I was worried about it reacting negatively to my current face wash and lotion, but it's so mild, it worked very nicely. It does sting while it's on, but nothing terrible. Very nice. Hope it's even better in the morning. May try this a few nights a week."

Gross, but amazing outcome., July 25, 2009
By mirandika

"Erika: Okay, so when we saw all the other reviews we thought it would be really cool and make our skin really clean and soft, and that's exactly what it did, it's amazing. when you mix everything, it kinda looks like puke though, and the clumps are disgusting. it also feels kind of wierd on your face, but it's wayy worth it. It got rid of all our blackheads! yay (:

Miranda: when we first put it on, it looked like some baby barfed bananas all over our face. when we took it off a few minutes later, every single one of our blackheads disappeared! our skin is crazy smooth and I think I'll definitely make it again! =D"

Banana & honey Mask, July 1, 2009
By Blueangel815

"I LOVE this mask! It REALLY cleared up my acne BIG time the next day. I have really oily skin and I break out with any oily foods. The mask was super easy and was 100% effective for me! If the mask "Stings" while you have it on it's because it's clearing up your acne. It is SO a life-saver for anyone who wishes to have clear and blemish-free skin! I would recommend it to EVERYONE!!!"

Soft, smooth skin!!, May 18, 2009
By Gababa76

"I have not felt my skin this smooth and soft in years!! I used 1 small banana (bought 3 days ago), the honey and a few drops of ReaLemon concentrate. Mashed it up, caked it on, let it sit for 15 minutes and rinsed with warm water. I even licked my lips while the mask was setting and discovered it tastes yummy! I am going to attempt to salvage the remaining bit by refrigerating and use again in a few days."

"I was really skeptical about this when I read it. Banana's and honey for oily skin? It was nice though. My skin feels softer and not greasy, and now it smells like a yummy banana!"

banana mask, March 18, 2009
By sk8_boarder

"We did the banana mask we stuck to the recipe kinda. We used a whole banana and a lot of honey and then we put in peanut butter. The mask feels great but it looks really gross. It looks like you have baby puke all over your face. That’s not a good thing to say but it does. So you should try it."
