We all want a flawless, glowing and clear skin. Skin care product ads on TV make us envious of the models. But some of these products are expensive and burn a hole in your household budget. Here are a few simple things that one can do at home.
When we were children my mother would make sure that we never used soap to wash our face. It was always the good old uptan made from besan, sandalwood power and milk in equal proportions to get a nice thick paste that can be applied on the face and left for 15 minutes. Wash off with water and pat dry your face. If you are strapped for time, do this one a week.
Drink lots of water. Keeping the body hydrated is the best way to keep the skin healthy and glowing. Slice the cucumber and lemon and drop the pieces in an empty pitcher. Add the mint leaves. Pour two litres of water and refrigerate. Sip this water the whole day. You can even carry this to the office in a thermos.
Use honey for a clear skin. It is a great moisturiser and has antibacterial properties. Apply honey directly on your face. let it dry and then rinse with lukewarm water. Follow this simple and easy method once daily or every other day.
