But it doesn't have to end that way. Instead, give your avocado a second chance in life as a moisturizing face mask!
Courtesy of Mother Nature, avocados are a natural moisturizer. The oil of an avocado is rich in vitamins A, D and E, all of which help maintain healthy skin.
Applying avocado to the skin is not a new concept, people have been doing it for years. Some even rub it onto their scalp to stimulate hair grow - apply for five minutes and then rinse.
Simply separate the avocado from it's skin & mash, apply for 10-15 minutes & wash off - that's it!
This can be especially soothing if you spent a little too much time in the sun without your sunscreen.
Eat it, wear it, either way - enjoy it!

Ha ha, I can certainly relate to letting my avocados go bad before using them!! *blush* Thanks for the tip! I'm always looking for natural ways to treat my skin, versus the chemical filled alternatives! :)
