Skin---Natural Remedy

1) Drinking 8 glasses of water a day can give you a natural glowing skin

2) 50 ml of cold milk, a pinch of salt and 2 teaspoons of lemon juice and use as a cleansing lotion. This will help clean the deep pores of the skin.

3) Take equal quantities of turmeric powder(yellow/orange paste you can get at Indian stores) and wheat flour and make a paste with sesame oil. Apply it to the face to remove unwanted hair. This has to be done over a period of time, but it definitely works.

4) You can use lemon juice and rub it all over the areas with blackheads and leave it overnight. This will reduce the number of blackheads over a period of time.

5) I saw this on Ellen one time on removing blackheads. Simply just put some white glue on your blackheads (the runny kind) and remove it once it dries hard. You will pull blackheads along with the glue. Pretty gross, but works.

6) Oatmeal is great for exfoliating. Mix oatmeal with honey or lemon and scrub your face with it. You will instantly see a difference in your complexion.

7) Eggs whites are another one of my favorites. The smell isn't so pleasant, but the results are definitely worth a try. Put 1 egg white in a bowl and wisk until they are runny and apply to your face. I LOVE the way this makes my face feel. I leave it on for about half an hour and wash it off with warm water. You will notice your face to be very tight and your pores won't be so visible either.

8) Acne??? No problem..add 3 tablespoons of dried basil leaves to 1 cup boiling water and let steep for 20 min. After it dries take some cotton balls and apply it to your face. I used this a lot back in the day..when I was a teenager . Geeesshhh I feel old just for writing that : (

9) Aloe Vera juice can be used as a skin refresher and it will soothe acne rashes and keep skin soft.

10) For oily skin, mix half cup cooked oatmeal, 1 egg white, 1 tablespoon lemon juice and half cup mashed apple into a smooth paste. Apply to your face and leave on for 30 min and rise.
