Fun in the Sun!!!

Hi my dears!!

Summer is around the corner and I hope everyone are enjoying the weekend by chilling out in their homes. Many women prefer to stay indoors to keep their skin cool and healthy. I say, come out and let's have fun in the Sun!!! Challenge the Sun with these face packs that keep you and your skin ultra cool!!! So why late??? Let's get started:):)

Let's get started with mint leaves. I am pretty sure everyone would have heard about how mint acts as a coolant on skin and scalp. To keep your skin cool, boil some mint leaves mixed with turmeric powder. Make it into a smooth paste and apply this on your face. Wash it off with cold water after 15 min. Mint cools your face, while turmeric removes dirt and bacteria from your face.

Cucumber is a widely used veggie for cooling skin, eyes and body. It is also taken as a juice to reduce the heat in body. Also, it acts as a natural moisturizer. The face pack that I am gonna teach you now not only cools your skin, but also keeps your skin fresh. Take 10 to 15 pieces of a cut Cucumber and mash it into a paste. You can use a mixer or a blender but see to that you do not make it into juice. Mash it into a smooth paste and mix nearly 6 to 7 table spoons of sugar to it. Keep it in the refrigerator till it gets completely cold. Apply the cold mixture to your face and wash it off with cold water once it gets dried. You need to add more sugar to the cucumber paste so that the pack works effectively.

Those with oily skin can use tomato face pack. It removes tan and excess oil from the face. Mix a few drops of honey to three table spoons of tomato juice and apply it to your face. The honey helps in keeping your skin glowing. Wash it off after 20 min to get smooth and fresh skin.


For those with dry skin, oats face pack works the best in keeping the skin fresh and also smooth. It will balance the skin tone by retaining the moisture in your face. Mix cucumber paste and one table spoon of curd to half cup of oats. Apply this to your face and wash it off after with lukewarm water after 30 min.

So that's it for today my lovelies:) I hope I have introduced some new face packs that rejuvenate your skin and keep it cool and fresh. Try these packs as all these are natural packs that do not give any side effects to your skin. Meet you in next post. Until then, take care:):)

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 :)

Flawless skin

Hi my beauties!!

Hope you all are having a good time reading my blog. Today I am going to post about the different types of skin and precautions that are needed to be taken according to each skin tone.

OK, so to start with, there are 3 different types of skin tones.Each type of skin needs different care to ensure it is soft and supple. Each skin retains a certain amount of moisture with it. If it cannot retain the desired level, then your skin tends to become dry. This loss in moisture can be retained with the help of external moisturizers that are available in local stores and shops. People having dry skin should regularly apply cleansers apart from using moisturizers. Apply cleanser to your face in an even manner and leave it on your face for a couple of minutes. Dip a cotton ball into water and clean off the cleanser. By doing so, the sweat, dirt and bacteria in your face will eventually vanish. Use toners that are specially made for dry skin. Apart from this, see to that you purchase a moisturizer that has vitamin E so that your skin tone will get enriched. Apply it regularly to get speedy results.

People with dry skin can prepare natural moisturizers at home which prove to be very effective. To prepare your own moisturizer, combine some amount of almond oil with honey and store it in a jar. You can use it whenever you want. The more you store, the better the result.



When your skin produces excess oil from the pores of your face, then your skin is said to be oily. People having oily skin also develop black heads and pimples very frequently. Many teenagers suffer with pimples and black heads due to oily skin. To get rid of the excess oil from your face, use a soap that has medicinal values.  Soaps like Medimix and Margo work for most of the oily skins. In case these soaps do not suit you, non alkaline soaps can also be used. Use a mild face scrub two to three times a week to remove the dirt and oil from your face so that the pores in your skin get opened up. Use moisturizers that contain water and not oil in their composition.

Combinational skin tone has both dry and oily skin. People having such skin tone should use toner that has rose water in its composition.

So that's it for today my dears!! Keep reading my posts and drop your comments and suggestions. Also feel free to share some of the tips that you know so that I too can get to know more about this topic;)

Meet you in next post. Until then, take care:)
