BEAUTY AND HEALTH CARE...

       
Posted by cookingmyths

Hi All,

Post your well tried beauty tips and tricks to benefit others... to start with, i have few tips which i have tried.

DRY SKIN: use a lot of moisturizer when going out.

T COMBINATION SKIN: use the face pack which is suggested below for oily skin only on the areas of T oilyness..

OR - mash a riped banana and apply on face and leave it for 25 minutes. Then wash face with cool water. You shall find a lot of difference.

OILY SKIN: 1tbsp multhani metti + rose water for mixing it. PEOPLE WITH ACNE / PIMPLES: add 1tbsp of kasthuri manjal to the mixture. Apply on face and wait for 25 minutes. Then wash with cool water. (Multhani metti has power of absorbing oil from the pores and rose water is a coolant).

OR - cut a nice pulpy papaya and apply it on face for 25 minutes. It wud look wierd and ugly but dont worry.. wash your face after 25 minutes and you would see a bright shining and oil free face.

FOR ALL SKIN TYPES:

A regular scrubbing is needed. For this, we can tomato into halves and rub it in circular motion on the face and neck. Do it for 5 minutes and wash the face. (This cleares the unwanted dry and dead skin from the face).

FACE PACK:

A regular face pack is good for keeping out face fresh and clear from wrinkles and marks. To do this, we dont have to invest much.

Just smash potatoes and apply it like a pack on the face. Leave it on for 15 minutes and wash it. For eyes, either cut cucumber slices and place it on the eyelids or even grind it and make it like a little eye pack and keep cotton on top of it. If none of this works out... try dipping little cotton on rose water and keep it on top of the closed eyelids. Better would be to go with natural materials as they are of little harm than rosewater as they might be adulterated too...

Beyond this, a regular diet, ample relaxation / rest through sleeping and drinking lot of water would keep the system clean which would automatically reflect on a cleaner face.

People who have pimples, have to wash their face with clean water (might even use a mild liquid soap which is harmless to their skin) every one hour. Pimples occurs because of the fact that excess oil gets secreted on the pores where dust particles get accumulated and forms a bump on the face. Regular washing of face would help a lot to reduce this as water has the capacity to remove off the oil on the surface of the face.

 Im really excited to write such a big forum topic. If you like it, please add your comments and also some tips that you know that could be shared with all.... Luv u all!!!  - Mythily.
