If you have dark spots or scars on your face from a breakout or suffered from any unwanted darkening of the skin. Try ZENMED Scar Treatment Kit, after using 8 to 10 times acne scars appear lighter and less visible. Another quality skin care product from Zenmed. Try it once and see the difference
A homemade mask is a great way to lighten your skin and a good excuse to kick back on the couch. Try using one once a week. Use one tablespoon of each of the following: sandalwood paste, lemon juice, tomato juice, and cucumber juice. Mix them all together to form a paste. Spread the mixture on your face and wait until it dries. Rinse and moisturize for a natural glow.
I will try the yogurt one! I also recommend putting olive oil on your skin and lips. My skin is very oily but it doesn't break out after it. Honey messes my skin up though:(
After-bath application of almond oil is undoubtedly a great treat for the skin – the suppleness and glow it brings to the skin is unmatched by even the very best of moisturizers.
i have started developed blemishes since two years back and it becomes difficult to remove them now even after taking medications.please advice
Your skin is a barrier protecting you against all those invaders from outside. If you go washing it with really hot water, hoping that you'll beat the spots, then you're wrong. You're just going to damage the skin and lose out to those external invaders thanks to weaker skin. Accept that your spots are caused by hormones, and adjust your diet - less sugars etc. The damage from internal reasons is unavoidable if it's from the hormones, so you must accept it. All you can do is avoid damaging the skin, and as a result, you'll lessen the chance of scarring it and leaving it more vulnerable to invaders - which will cause boils and terrible puss spots.When washing, try a gentle foaming face wash with Witch Hazel in it. Don't be hungry for quick results, so don't dispense so much that it covers your face like shaving foam! Do this, once with your shower, then, if you need it, moisturize with E45 lotion. I find the light body milk one very useful. This will prevent cracking and soreness, and won't clog you up. You'll look much fresher, cleaner, and your skin will breath good. Remember, don't use too much. Don't use so much you shine horribly, or you'll just clog up again, thus need another wash.Take it easy, wash calmly once in the shower (don't care about night as a full day to recover from the abrasion of washing is necessary for the skin), then let your body heal the skin.
Egg yolks are high in vitamin A and lecithin which is great for healing blemishes. The yolk and honey both have emulsifiers which are great for clearing up oily skin. And once you add whole milk and olive oil those dry skin cells and blemishes don’t stand a chance!
"I can’t afford expensive face products and some of your facial masks are SO cheap to make. I enjoy the masks, thanks!”
Using a facial mask once a week or so is a great way to take care of your skin.
I would recommend a cream with vitamin E oil, it helps reduce notice of scars and stretch marks. You can find it at your local drug store. I use Palmer's Cocoa Butter for my scars on my legs =]
my skin is prone to the occasional (very very occasional) break out. i prefer to use mary kay's velocity line... but when i cant get that, i use neutrogena fresh foaming cleanser. my younger sister who had worse acne than i ever had tried using proactive and it didn't work. so, she tried the acne free program and now her face is really clear. she only used the face wash. depending on how sensitive your skin is, you might want to try using all 3 products. the acne free program can be purchased at walmart, if i am correct. and i get my neutrogena from walmart
Take some tulsi (basil) leaves, grind it and squeeze them to get the juice. Mix this tulsi juice with lime juice and massage it on your face and neck for 10-15 minutes. You will definitely find the results in 15 days.
