To get beautiful, healthy skin and hair, without spending money and time at salons, you can try out some effective home remedies. There are home beauty remedies for almost every skin type and problem. Here are some such remedies that will help you get salon like beauty effects at home.
1. To get salon like glowing skin, prepare a paste of gram flour (besan), turmeric and rose water. Apply this pack on your face for 10 minutes. After it dries, smoothen it out with some water and use it as a scrub to exfoliate the dead skin and impurities. Wash your face with water and see an instant glow.
2. If you have dandruff troubles, mix two tablespoons of warm coconut oil with one teaspoon of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Massage this on your scalp and wash it off after 40-60 minutes. Repeat this twice a week for effective results.
3. For radiant skin, mix grated cucumber pulp and curd in exactly equal proportions. Apply it on the face and neck and wash off in 15 minutes. You can also use tomato pulp instead of cucumber for similar result.
4. Mix equal amounts of glycerine and rose water, to take care of your dry skin problems. You can add a few drops of lemon to it. Apply this with a cotton bud all over the face and wash off your face after a few minutes. This is an excellent homemade toner to take care of your dry skin.
5. To take care of hair, oil your scalp, take a hot towel, and wrap it on your head for 10 minutes. This will create steam and allow the oil to seep deep into your hair and its roots. Shampoo and condition the hair after this and feel the difference in your hair quality. Follow this routine at least once a week for silky and smooth hair.
6. For a firm and wrinkle free skin, apply castor oil on your face with the help of a cotton bud. Leave it on for about 20 minutes and then wash it off.
7. For a natural skin conditioner, make a paste of one teaspoon of honey along with two tablespoons of cream. Mix it well so that there are no lumps. Apply this paste on your face and wash it off after a few minutes for soft skin.
8. To even out your skin tone, take a raw potato slice and put a few drops of water on its surface, and rub it on your face in a circular motion for a few minutes. Regular application will help reduce pigmentation on the skin and even out the skin colour.
9. Apply almond oil on the under eye area every night before going to bed to cure dark circles. Regular application of this for at least a month or two will show you effective results.
10. For blemish free skin, mix equal amounts of cucumber juice and lemon juice. Dab this solution with a cotton bud on your face every night. Wash off in the morning for clean, clear and blemish free skin. You can add either rose water or a pinch of turmeric to this mix to get better results.
With increasing number of skin and hair problems along with the escalating prices of beauty care products and salon treatments, it is best to turn towards effective home remedies to solve your problems.
