Homemade beauty recipes containing eggs are good for people with oily or combination skin that suffers from large pores or skin that needs some extra firming. Egg yolks are made up of mostly albumin, which has a drying effect on the skin and also makes a film that tightens pores. It may cause dry skin to flake and peel. Egg whites work in a similar fashion, by narrowing the pores and tightening the skin. For beauty recipes with egg, always use the highest quality eggs available. Organic eggs from free-range grain fed chickens are the best choice for your skin.
