Natural treatments for your everyday beauty woes

Most women swear by expensive skin creams, but the best way to rejuvenate is by using your grandma's recipes. Here are some face packs to try out...

Luxurious beauty treatments can take a backseat this season and instead swear by natural skin treatments that not only guarantee long-lasting results but also ensure that your skin stays clean and blemish-free.

USING RIPE BANANA

It is said to be a natural source of vitamin A, E and D. Take a ripe banana and mash it well. This will make your mane smooth, soft as well as shiny. To clear blemishes off your face, mash a ripe banana and apply it evenly on your face. You can also add a few drops of lemon to help lighten your skin and get rid of pigmentation.

PAPAYA

With the sweltering heat almost upon us,your face needs to cool down a bit. To ensure that your face stays nourished as well as free from marks and blemishes. Refrigerate half a papaya overnight and squash it well the following day. Apply this paste evenly on your face and keep it on for at least an hour before you wash it away with lukewarm water.Use a moisturising lotion to keep your skin smooth.

HONEY AND LEMON

For those who want to lighten their skin the best face pack to apply is that of honey and lemon. It will lighten your skin and also tighten the pores,thereby making your facial skin a shade lighter that it is.

SEASONAL FRUITS

While we all know that the consumption of seasonal fruits cleanses your system and keep it clean, a seasonal fruit pack also ensures that your skin stays nourished and healthy. You can either do this treatment on a daily basis or once during the week.

STRAWBERRY

For those who suffer from fine lines and wrinkles and ageing skin, it is best recommended to use a strawberry face pack at least twice in a week. Simply mash a few strawberries and apply it directly on your face. You might feel an initial itch in the beginning,but once the pack settles down on your face,it will lend a cooling effect and will brighten your face.

ORANGE

Do you know applying the pulp of orange juice will make your skin brighter within minutes? For those who suffer from tanning and pigmentation issues, your best cure lies in applying the pulp of orange on your face on a daily basis. To make the pack thicker, you can combine banana or besan with it. You can alternatively add some rose water while making this paste.
