Ground eggshell powder mixed with honey or plain yogurt makes a mild exfoliating face mask that can leave skin feeling smoother — a nice occasional treat rather than a treatment for anything specific. As with anything applied to skin, patch-test first if you’re prone to sensitivity.
Next time you crack an egg, save the shell — between the garden, the laundry, and a bit of self-care, it has more uses left in it than you’d expect. Just remember that shell color, white or brown, comes down to the breed of hen and makes no difference to any of these uses.
