All natural strawberry mask

I recently heard that strawberries are a natural remedy to conquer age/dark spots.  Since, I have some spots on my face I decided why not I'll give it a try.  A bunch of strawberries can't do much harm to my face in comparison to all the face creams in the drug store.  After all...it's just strawberries..

After doing some research, I've learned that strawberries contain salicylic acid which is found in many acne skin care products and is also good for toning, lightening and keeping your skin smooth.  If I knew this earlier I would have been slapping strawberries on my face a long time ago.  All you need is 2 strawberries and 1tbsp of lime juice.

Mix together to form a paste and apply to your face for 15 minutes then wash off.  At first it seemed a little watery but after applying it to my face it started to harden.  The best part about this is that it's all natural (which means no irritation for people with sensitive skin), inexpensive and EDIBLE!!  I plan on doing this twice a week and see what happens...
