Yogurt isn’t just delicious. It’s also great for your skin. I have found a variety of beauty products made with yogurt, both store-bought and homemade treatments. This terrific beauty recipe features five ingredients from your kitchen — strawberries, yogurt, olive oil, honey and oatmeal. The mask will brighten your skin, treat blemishes, exfoliated dead skin cells and moisturize dry, dull skin.

Ingredients:
- 4-5 small strawberries
- 2 tablespoons of yogurt
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoons of honey
- 2 spoonfuls of oatmeal
The strawberries contain natural antioxidants which protect your skin from free radicals. Berries also help to absorb oil and treat breakouts. The yogurt helps refine pores and tone skin, while the olive oil hydrates and nourishes the skin.

For the body, I love other yogurt-based products. For example Korres Yogurt Body Butter is really great. It leaves your skin feeling silky soft, hydrated and healthy. You can get Korres body butter from Sepora for $29 for a 7.9 oz. tube.
