ReplyDeleteyeah you know how it reduces the lines in your lips it'll do the same for your bags.just don't let it get in your eyes
For the swollen eyes, put some Hemorrhoid cream (not ointment) under your eyes. That is what the models do.
ReplyDeletewash it with special bath salts.helps with toerh stuff like dark areas in the armpits and such.
ReplyDeleteA natural way is to rub fresh lemon juice on the areas and keep it on for 15 minutes. Then wash it off. You can moisturize those certain areas after the treatments. If none of that works for you, ask your doctor or contact a skin specialist for help.
ReplyDeleteThanks again for this informative post.
ReplyDeleteIt’s good to know certain things even if not in need at the moment. Sometimes hair damages so quickly.. using gel and hair colors.
Those ideas are definitely wonderful.

ReplyDeleteI LOVE this! And, I've found a new road.
ReplyDeleteDon’t neglect certain areas of the skin. Elbows, heels, neck, and décolletage need moisturizing, and your scalp and the tops of your feet need sun protection.

Dark lips: If your black lips have been caused by drinking too much tea, coffee or by smoking, you will need to cut it down. Apply Vaseline with a few drops of lemon juice to your lips regularly at night. This keeps lips moisturized. In the morning, rub your lips with a toothbrush to remove dead skin.
ReplyDeleteApply a paste of ground drumstick pods and leaves mixed with fresh lime juice on the face. Rub gently and let it stay on for 10 - 15 minutes at a time.
ReplyDeleteContinue daily once in the morning for 7-10 days and you will find pimples and black heads and black spots slowly but surely vanish.
You will be pleasantly surprised to find clear smooth beautiful skin that glows and makes you look years younger.
