I have this pimple sort of thing at the tip of my nose and it is very very irritating. Although I havent done enough to make it go away….one of my friends suggested a remedy.
She says….crush garlic and apply the juice on the pimple like outgrowth and it will disappear soon…
I have not yet tried [...]
To look fresh always…you can have a quick facial….
Besan (kadalai maavu/gram flour) +curd +sandal powder
mix the above ingredients. apply on face as a pack for sometime (about 15 mins) and then wash it off..
in winter…instead of curd …use malai (fresh cream/paal aadai)
you will have a glow on the face …
this is easy to do…not very time consuming…and will keep you looking fresh always.
also note tat all the ingredients are natural and no synthetic stuff
After squeezing a lemon dont throw away the cup like structure of the lemon peel. Pour a few drops of coconut oil into it and rub it on your elbows, knees and any other portion of skin which is darkened…..it helps lghten and soften the skin.
Instead of using any moisturisers or creams for the skin, try this…
as soon as you finish bath pat yourself with a towel ( do not rub away the water)
then apply coconut oil all over your body on the supple moist skin.
This would do…no need of any moisturiser…
I tried this and found it very good.
the coconut oil does not make the skin sticky…it evaporates after sometime. but the skin does not become dry.
It seems if this is practised continuously, over time the skin texture changes naturally….
1. After washing your hair pour milk all over it. Leave it for 2 minutes and then rinse it out for shiny long hair.
2. Soak a few almonds in milk overnight. Grind them and mix with honey. Use this as a face or body scrub.
3. You could add a little milk to your bath water and bathe normally for soft skin.
Use preboiled unpaturised milk as a liquid pack on your face. Milk is a natural bleaching agent and nourishes the skin. It is also a skin softener.
Dont know how many of these tips really work…and also what I find is,…some of them work for some people and some dont..So I guess it also depends from eprson to person…Here goes…
Grate some cucumber and freeze in an ice tray. Massage frozen cucumber cubes onto eyes to reduce puffiness and dark circles.
To get rid of puffy eyes and dark circles….Make a paste from a teaspoon of tomato juice, 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice, a pinch of turmeric powder and a pinch of gram flour. Apply under eyes for 10 minutes. Then wash it off. See the difference:)
In order to reduce dark circles under your eyes, putting a warm teabag on them helps a bit. Just use the teabag right after making a cup of tea so its still warm.
Before getting ready for your bath, grind channa dal to paste an mix with a pinch of turmeric and a few drops of lemon juice. Also mix a few drops of milk and 2 tsp of coconut oil. Apply on face. Leave it for ½ hour. Then, gently wetting your hands, scrub off the paste. It will leave your skin glowing.
