Banana for moisturizing while cleaning your make up:  If you like to moisturize while you clean, look no further than the most easily available fruit - banana. Mash up a banana to a paste before applying it onto your face like a mask. Let it sit for five minutes while the enzymes remove makeup, dirt and grime from deep down in your pores. Rinse off with a warm wash cloth for smooth, clean skin that’s dreamily hydrated.

Olive oil:  This is best for people that have dry skin. Just put a few drops of olive oil on your face and spread it everywhere by gently massaging it. Remove with a tissue soaked in warm water.
