Make a face mask of Black gram- 10 tsp ground to a paste mixed with 2 tsp tomato juice and 2 tsp curd. Heat it on a low flame for 2-3 min. Then cool and leave on your face for 10-15 minutes before washing it off.

I’m outside about 7 hours a day with the horses, and have dry skin to begin with. *sigh* This might sound odd, but I use Olive oil like crazy in the winter. Leave it on for ten minutes or so, then wash off with a gentle cleanser, like Cetaphil. Works like a charm wink
ReplyDeleteSince it’s winter, my skin has been really dry, but a couple days ago, I tried the Egg Yolk & Honey mask and after i toned and moisturized, my skin was smooth and soft and it has been a week and my skin hasnt been peeling!
ReplyDeleteWhat you do is you separate the egg, if your face is dry, use the yolk, if your face is oily, use the white. So i used the yolk, and you add about 1 tsp. of honey (or 1 tsp. of lemon juice if your face is oily) and leave it on for 15-20 minutes and wash it off! It works WONDERS!!!
If you have an oily skin, then make a pack outta sandalwood paste and little milk and apply it on face for 10 mins. If you have a dry skin, never use sandalwood paste cause it makes the skin more dry, instead u can make a paste of honey and cream and apply on your face for 15 mins. It does wonder to your skin!!!

Olive oil is usually used for the body massages and some times as an hair oil. u can mix besan with lil rose water and apply onto ur face, leave it for about 10min..u will find a fresh lok again with no dirt remaining.
