Beauty Tips - Logo

The gorgeous actress Anjana Sukhani (read her bio here) with peaches and cream complexion and glowing skin highly relies on granny's kitchen cupboard beauty remedies. For a glowing complexion, she uses a face pack of curds (yogurt) and lemon mixture. Her advice to those interested in skin lightening/ brightening: "This lemon-curd mixture home-remedy works amazingly well and bleaches your skin to reveal a glowing, radiant skin. Curds/Yoghurt is a mild exfoliator and hence is very gentle on the skin. Don't ever use those OTC chemical cream bleaches as it harms the skin in the long run and eventually darkens it. " Her regular beauty routine comprises of cleansing, toning and moisturizing and she uses Rose water as a toner. "Besides this, a positive attitude, zest for life and the ability to stay poised under all circumstances  is also needed to add that extra glow on your face.", quips Anjana.

    for glowing skin in winters mix equal quantities of rose water,lemon juice and glycerin and apply all over body including face before going to bed.
    another thing u can do is to take steam bath once a week.it cleans the skin and helps it glow.
    but be careful...DO NOT use the lemon,rose,glycerin solution immediately after the steam bath.
    for pink lips grinding rose petals and apply on the lips every night.
    beetroot juice also helps but the taste is awful.
    so now u choose ur option.

    For that perfect skin look start with foundation that is an exact match to your skin tone. Use this to cover up redness, uneveness, or imperfections. Next use concealer to get rid of dark circles under the eye. After this use powder to get rid of shine. Use bronzer after this for that glow you are looking for! Good Luck!

    Apply honey on your face and neck for 20 minutes. Wash it with cold water. Your skin will glow and become soft and smooth.
    Mix egg white with honey and apply on the face for 20 minutes. Wash it with cold water.
    Make a paste of one teaspoon of walnut powder, honey and lemon juice. Scrub your face with this paste and leave it for 20 minutes. Wash it with cold water.

    there are three types of food : go, grow, and GLOW :D:D eat them kind of foods.
    i also got a mail from a friend that advices to eat fruits BEFORE meal, (because fruits are easily digested and is ready to go out, but if food is blocking it then it'll spoil in your tummy) the result of fruits and it's benefits can be seen when you eat it BEFORE you main course, anywhere, it was said that if you eat fruits properly you have mastered the secret to longevity and beauty, it was also said that just three days of proper fruit fast would also give you a glow, and your friends would tell how radiant you are.

    of course, this kind of thing must be done religously, as in continously and constantly.

    also drink lychee tea, because one sales lady told me that drinking lychee tea would give you a younger looking skin.


    all of this are just advices told to me, i haven't tried them yet mainly because i haven't got the time to buy any fruits or them lychee tea's.

    you could try them though and see if they're right. what do you have to lose? :D

    • Apply gram pulse flour in the morning. It will make even rough skin soft and the color becomes fair.
    • Make a mixture of 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice and glycerin and apply it on the darkspots to get rid of them
    • Skin peels help in renewal of your skin and take away the tan giving you a smoother, fresher and lighter skin. These systems are based on naturally occurring fruit fatty acids which gently exfoliate your sun-damaged skin and stimulate regeneration. However, it is important to choose the right peel system
    Also, it’s a good idea to know your skin. Hey I have heard that Kaya Skin clinic is giving some cool treatments

  13. I believe that the only thing that can truly bring out the radiance and glow of your skin is to change what you put into it. If you consume junk, you will look like junk. If you consume good healthy things than you will look good and healthy.... it's as simple as that. There are NO quick tips for glowing skin. It's a process.

    I eat a bowl of steamed vegetables (mostly greens) daily to help skin complexion (broccoli, bok choy and carrots). If you want glowing skin, green vegetables are the best (spinach,broccoli, bok choy, silver-beet etc).

    Fruit is also good. With fruit juice, I buy fresh juice from the chilled section of the supermarket and not that dead concentrated juice on the shelves. Fresh juice might cost extra but it's much more healthier and tastes better.

    I get itchy skin in winter and occasional xma. I get special oat soap from the chemist that doesn't strip the skins natural oils like normal soap does.
    You could also use some moisturising lotion for you face and hands. You might find something good at a health food store that's more natural and not chemical.

    Apply raw Carrot paste on your face for 1 hour daily for 1 month will provide glow on your face. Also apply Orange juice to your face for i hour daily will make your face skin smooth & soft.
    Tomato juice 50 ml + Lemon juice 5 ml , apply on your face & wash after 1 hour with water.
    Intake of 10 ml Honey mixed with 20 ml Rose water daily will clear the stains on face skin.
    If you follow the suggestions regularly for 2 month your problem will be resolved & you will feel improvements after 15-20 days.

  16. For healthy skin make a deep moisturising bath soak. Chop the foot of an old pair of tights fill with two or three cups of powdered milk and a generous handful of oats, tie the opening and place under tap of warm water. I would use soap unless it's made with completely natural ingredients.

Aspirin for acne-prone skin

Aspirin has been around for a long time and its health benefits are wide and varied. Aspirin , or acetylsalicylic acid is a salicylate drug, often used as an analgesic to relieve minor aches and pains , as an antipyretic to reduce fever , and as an anti-inflammatory medication. Aspirin's greatest benefit is reducing cardiovascular events including heart attacks and strokes. According to the American Heart Assoc. virtually all women are at risk of heart disease and doctors should more strongly consider prescribing a daily aspirin for their female patients. There is growing evidence to suggest regular aspirin use may reduce cancer and dementia as well. Investigators from the Women's Health Study have reported important new findings demonstrating that aspirin reduces the risk of a first stroke in women. When given to someone immediately after a heart attack, aspirin decreases death by 25%.

Lemon as a beauty aid

The diminutive lemon is a very versatile beauty-aid and this cheap and golden-coloured fruit has excellent properties for enhancing your looks. Simple lemon-based preparations, you can mix in your own kitchen, will surely bring a dramatic transformation in your beauty regimen.

Aloevera, the wonder herb

Of all the herbs available in the kitchen garden, aloe is perhaps the richest in healing properties and has been rightly named the “first-aid” plant. It has moisturizing and emollient properties and is used in cosmetic creams, sun-lotions, shaving creams and face packs. It can easily be cultivated as a house-plant in a sunny warm spot with good drainage. Cosmetologists mix aloe with several other herbs and draft fancy names for it. Then these “herbal” avatars are sold at exorbitant prices. Growing a plant and using fresh gel is much more effective than bottled gel, simply because it is alive and therefore is more potent. It is the only plant whose extract is applied directly from plant to face in its natural and purest form.

I Tried a Headache Balm and Ended Up with Rashes

I do have this habit of slathering pain balms whenever I have a headache. But never did I get a skin reaction or rashes from it. It so happened that I had an extremely severe headache a few months ago.  The pain was so unbearable that I gingerly reached out for a pain balm kept on my bedside table and kept on slathering it repeatedly all over the temples of my forehead. Next morning, after I woke up, I found that the skin on my forehead was peeling off and worse there were red rashes!  This was the first time in my life that I was getting rashes from applying a pain balm on my forehead !  I have never had any pain balm allergy or as such!  Side-effects due to application of a pain balm  was something I've never come across all these years! I usually use pain balms of reputed companies – my usual favourites are Tiger balm, Amrutanjan, Zandu balm and Sloan’s balm.  This time I had used Tiger balm. But why did it  give me rashes now, when I had used it...
