Natural remedy for skin and hair problems

Hi my beautiful frnz!!!

Today I spent some quality time in my nursery. Ahhh!! I feel gardening is such a bliss to add peace and tranquility in our lives. I have posted some of my lovely flower collections below so that you can also enjoying looking at them. After all, sharing is fun right?? ;)

As I walked through the roses, I noticed a shiny green tiny thulasi(Basil) plant sprouting from the ground. It was then that a wonderful thought stuck me. Having known about the herbal and medicinal value of thulasi, I decided to write a post on how this can cure pimples, acne and dandruff.

Thulasi is a natural herb that is considered sacred throughout India. Many Indians worship  Thulasi in their homes. There are 3 different types of Thulasi each having it's own importance. But the most widely available and valuable Thulasi is the one that is lush green in color.

Take some Thulasi leaves and boil them in water for 20 min. You will notice a greenish liquid on the top of the leaves. Keep the leaves aside and filter the water. You can now use both the water as well as the boiled leaves. The boiled leaves can be used as a skin toner. Apply the water twice a day to get rid of acne and dirt on your face.

For those suffering with dry skin, mix some egg white to the Basil leaves and make it into a paste. Apply it on your face and wash it off after 15 min. The egh white balances the softness while Basil tightens the pores on your face.

Mix some turmeric to Basil leaves and make it into a smooth paste. Apply it as a face pack to reduce acne and black heads.

To use Basil as a dandruff therapy, apply the boiled Basil leaves water after your shower. Apply it to your scalp and rinse it after 5 min. You can see that your scalp gets cooled instantly. You can also mix this with neem oil and apply to scalp. This combination not only removes dandruff but also enriches your scalp with rich oxygen thus making your hair roots free from dust and dead cells.

So that's it for today my dears!! I hope you are enjoying reading my posts. Please do share them as these are all cost efficient and effective

5 Natural ways to get rid of acne

Hi my dears!!!

Hope you people are enjoying the weekend with your family. Add some beauty to your face and skin and lo!!! You are sure to enjoy much more with your beauty as you can win many hearts with your charm.

Beauty is skin deep. That's what this blog is all about. I strongly emphasize that a woman can gain much more confidence if she uses both her beauty and brains.

Today I am going to share about 5 natural ways to rejuvenate your skin and make your skin pimple and acne free.

Papaya is a fruit that naturally cures all ailments internally and externally. We all are very familiar with this fact. But something that most of us are not familiar is the fact that papaya is used to cure pimples and acne. So let's get down to business:)

1. Take a small chunk of papaya. Remove it's peel and make the fruit into a rough paste. It's enough if you just mash the fruit with your hand till it becomes into a rough pulp. Mix it with some oats powder. Add some milk to it and apply this paste to your face. Gently scrub this paste to your face in circular motions. You can also do this without adding milk if your skin is oily. Scrub your face for 6 to 7 minutes and then wash with luke warm water. Repeat this two times a week to get glowing skin.

2. Mix papaya pulp and sugar and use it to scrub your hands and feet. Scrub your hands and feet for 10 min and wash them with luke warm water. Repeat this thrice a week to get rid of tanning.

3. You can also use papaya directly on your face to get glowing skin. But I suggest to use it with milk as milk tends to retain the moisture in your face. To get rid of acne, mix papaya pulp, turmeric powder and two table spoons of milk in a bowl. Apply it to the acne affected areas on your face. You can also use this as a face pack.

4. To remove black heads, mix papaya pulp, aloevera pulp and two table spoons of turmeric powder. Steam your face or five to ten min before you apply this paste. Apply this paste to your face for ten min and then wash it off with like warm water. Remove the black heads with a black head remover. Removing the black heads now will become easier as aloevera and papaya help to pull out the black heads while turmeric powder avts as anti septic.

5. Mix papaya pulp and Fuller's earth and applyot as a face pack. Wash it off with cold water after 10 min. This face pack will rejuvenate you your skin and hydrate it.

So that's it for today my dears!! Hope you all will find it useful. Keep reading my posts and don't forget to share them with your friends. Please do comment if you have any suggestions or ideas for improvements. Meet you in next post. Until then, take care :)

Anti-tan face packs

Hi my sweetums!!

Hope you all are doing great!! Today, I am gonna post about anti-tanning face packs which can be easily prepared at home. So let's begin!! :)

Many young girls, teenagers, ladies and women suffer from tanning. One of the main reasons for tanning is exposure to direct sunlight for a long period of time. Long exposure to sunlight makes your face, neck, hands and feet tanned. Many parlor and salons provide anti tanning treatment with chemicals that may be allergic to our face. Since the skin on the face is more sensitive than any other part of the body, special care has to be taken whenever you apply face packs, anti tanning packs, bleach etc.

We are now going to see how to prepare natural anti tanning face packs at home. These packs prove to be very economical, cost effective, chemical free and finally natural!! Yay:)

1.Take a fresh tomato and cut it into two equal halves. Take one of the halves and dip it directly into sugar. Add some fresh curd upon it and rub this to your face for 5min. I always use a small sized tomato to do this. But if you use a bigger one, then it's better to cut the tomato to one fourth. Rubbing this on your face will remove the tan from your face. Use it regularly to see stunning results.

2. Cut one fourth of a tomato (any size) and squeeze out the juice from it. Add two to four drops of lemon juice squeezed from a fresh lemon. Finally, add two table spoons of fresh curd to the mixture. To make into a face pack, you can also add besan gram flour (i.e fgarbanzo bean flour or chick pea flour) and multani mitti (fuller's earth). Apply this to your face and neck and leave it on for 20 min. Repeat this twice a week to see good results. This pack not only reduces tanning, but also reduces pimples and keeps your skin fresh.

3. Squeeze the juice from one fourth of a tomato. Add one table spoon of freshly prepared cilantro juice to it. You can apply it directly to your face with a cotton. But I suggest you to use it as a face pack. To make this as a face pack, add some besan gram flour and multani mitti (fuller's earth) to it. Apply it to your face and neck and wash it after 20 min.

All the above methods are extremely effective in removing the tan from your face.I am pretty sure that you will notice startling results. So that's it for today my darlings!!
