Tortoise + Egg = Facial Time!

In the early evening of last Saturday, I felt rejuvenated after my slumber marathon. I decided to do a little bit of facial to further enhance my appearance. Hear say that the egg white is very good at taking out stubborn black heads from our facial pores. So, I cracked open an egg into a bowl, poured the egg white into a small bowl and left the egg yolk for the tortoises. Both Slow Coach and Charlie were more than happy to have the egg yolks.

Someone told me to add water using the ration of 1:1, just like the ration for making steam eggs. So, I used the egg shells to measure the water and mixed the water with the egg white. I used a fork to beat the mixture, making sure that the egg yolk was well diluted in the water. Then, I used my fingers to apply the magic potion onto my face. It was a very messy process with the egg white mixture dripping all over the floor, my neck and my hands. Then, I quickly put facial cotton squares all over my face before the magic potion dried up. The cottons are supposed to help pull the black heads out from my pores when I peel the dried cottons off my face.

After I had applied the egg whites on my face, there was still lot’s of egg whites left and I didn't want to waste it. So, I gave my mum a free round of facial. Brownie points for me! Of course, I covered her face with the facial cotton squares as well. It was difficult to hold back our giggles as we looked at each other's face. We looked like a pair of fluffy albino Bigfoots! Even after sharing the magic beauty potion with mum, I still couldn't finish the egg whites. I decided to throw the balance into the drain.

Next, the egg yolk. I beat the egg yolk & fed it to Slow Coach & Charlie using a small spoon. Both of them have their own eating set (shared) which comprise of a plastic bowl, a pair of chopsticks and a small plastic spoon. Feeding them is like feeding a baby. You need to have patience while waiting for them to open their mouth (beaks, actually). After the first gulp, they were so excited by the food, they scrambles all over their respective tubs with the food in their mouth. It's ok if they are eating solid food but when it comes to liquid, well.... in the excitement; some of it tends to spilt out from their noses, which was so in this case. =P After that, they leaned against the wall of their tubs on their two hind legs which made the subsequent feedings easier. Slow Coach was more ladylike when she eats. She will usually wait for the food to arrive right in front of her before she opens her beak to take the bite while Charlie lunges towards his food. Most of the time, he accidentally knocked into the spoon and spilt the egg yolk onto his head.

After watching the tortoises feasting on the egg yolk, it was time to peel off the cottons soiled with egg whites.


Wastage Statistic:
Egg white: 50% (dripped on the floor and gone done the drain)
Egg yolk : 0% (the tortoises ate all of it)


Facial Result:
Black heads: (Me) Still visible, especially on the nose. *sigh* / (Mum) No visible black heads (actually she had none to start with).

Tortoises: Tummies full and free facial (from the egg yolk residue spilled onto their heads during feeding time)


From the statistics, I felt bad for so much wastage since I was the one who initiated the egg breaking ceremony. Later, I found out that I was not supposed to add any water to the egg white because it will over dilute the egg white. Duh...

haha, interesting post. if i remember correctly, you are not suppose to add any water to the egg white but i havent tried this method myself. for blackheads, you need a peel-off mask as that works best. i am currently trying kose's mask. still got blackheads on my nose though although not too visible. i might try cellinique as one blogger swears by one of the product for removing blackheads.
