This post is kind of different. I usually just write about what is on my mind and lately I have wanted clearer brighter skin, so I looked up some natural remedies and here is what I found. So for all you ladies that read our blog enjoy this!It is a good idea for men to keep there skin nice and bright as well so don't be shy.
*Egg white is beneficial for oily skin as it helps balance the production of sebum. Beat an egg white, brush onto skin and leave until dry. Rinse off. Whole eggs make a fantastic hair conditioner. Beat one whole egg and rinse through hair in the shower. Dry as usual.
*Lemon has been used to reduce pigmentation and blemishes for centuries. Slice a lemon, rub cut surfaces over your face, leave for 20 minutes then rinse off.
*Milk is an excellent anti-ageing moisturiser and exfoliation treatment for the skin. The lactic acid leaves the skin soft and smooth. Rinse face with one cup of milk diluted in a basin of water or bathe with a glass of milk in bath water.
*Almonds and walnuts can be blended into a powder and used as a scrub for the body.
*If you've got dry skin and want a natural facial, mix one egg white, 1 tsp honey and 1 tsp full-fat milk. Spread the mixture on your face and leave it for about 25 minutes. Rinse.
*For a fruity cuticle softener, blend 1 tsp papaya juice, 1/2 tsp egg yolk and 1 tsp cider vinegar. Apply to cuticles.
*Turmeric is excellent for pimples, cellulite and as a toning body paste. For pimples, make a paste with lemon or water and put on the pimple. As an anti-cellulite treatment, mix 1 heaped tbsp of chick-pea flour with 1 tsp turmeric and add milk or yoghurt to make a paste. Brush onto cellulite areas. Caution: it stains but will wash off.
I feel like keeping our skin and body clean and pure is an important part to living a healthy lifestyle. How we feel about ourselves attributes to our happiness, and being happy is one of the most important traits that we need in life.
