Tomato is a great agent for beauty tips. I often use tomato mask with jojoba oil and tea tree oil to reduce ances.
Mash ½ piece of tomato until smooth.
Mix tomato with 1 teaspoon of jojoba oil and 5 drops of tea tree oil.
Apply to clean skin and leave on 10-15 minutes.
Wash with warm water and pat dry.

I find it fascinating all these everyday foods having such health benefits. I'm really surprised by how good tomatoes are, I used to hate them as a child. I believe they are especially good for you skin.

Thanks Angela for this recipe, I'll give it a go when I get some jojoba.

Thanks for your recipe!

I love the idea of planting your own tomatoes from the seeds of your existing tomatoes, I will give this a try in the spring.

The health benefits of tomatoes are amazing, I always try and shop for colour when choosing my fruit and veg, and tomatoes are always my go to product. I believe they are excellent against skin cancer and heart disease.

My tomatoes are in and growing. Can't wait to taste them, I used organic piccolo tomatoes.

I used to hate the large ones with the slimy insides, I would only eat the skin. Now, I eat the small ones like sweets.
