Hye There,
Homemade - Beauty Secrets! <3
The characterization of a person as “beautiful”, whether on an individual basis or by community consensus, is often based on some combination of Inner Beauty, which includes psychological factors such as personality, intelligence, grace, politeness, charisma, integrity, congruence and elegance, and Outer Beauty, (i.e. physical attractiveness) which includes physical factors, such as health, youthfulness, facial symmetry, averageness, and complexion.
Standards of beauty are always evolving, based on what a culture considers valuable. Historical paintings show a wide range of different standards for beauty. However, humans who are relatively young, with smooth skin, well-proportioned bodies, and regular features, have traditionally been considered to be the most beautiful throughout history.
With this in mind, I guess now days having a flawless and smooth skin is the key to success in attaining beauty. With air pollutions and so on, skins are affected so badly and is needed more care than ever before. And as we grow our skin becomes less healthier (because we may stress to much), but still we can keep them fit as a fiddle with some help of the natural ingredients.
Here are some of the things you may use to help your skin glow!. I have been trying all these rather than picking up a cosmetic worth 100 dollars to make things right! and for my amusement they sure do help!
All home-made and easy to apply!
1 - Tropical Citrus Mask
Tropical fruits aren't just for making fruit juice. They have amazing cleansing capabilities and they smell great!
Ingredients:
• 1 ripe banana
• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 1 drop orange essential oil
Instructions:
Start by mixing together the banana, olive oil and orange oil. Smooth the mixture onto your face and leave it there for about 15-20 minutes. When you're ready, rinse it off with lukewarm water, and then apply a moisturizer.
Tip:
For a less messy application, you can use cheesecloth to cover your face before using the mask. Just make sure to cut out holes for your eyes and mouth.
2 - Rosewater Facial Toner
Rosewater is a great astringent and will keep your skin clean and smelling beautiful.
Ingredients:
• 1 cup rose petals
• 1/2 cup rubbing alcohol
• 1 1/2 cups water
Instructions:
Once you've collected all those rose petals, simmer them in water for 10 minutes, and then strain. Add rubbing alcohol. Pour into an old shampoo bottle or soap bottle. To use, simply squirt some rosewater on a cotton ball and dab on face.
Tip:
The rubbing alcohol is optional, but it helps to preserve the toner once you've made it. It will last for about a week in the fridge without the alcohol, and two weeks with it.
3 - Oatmeal Blueberry Mask
This mask works particularly well if your skin is oily, but it's also great for a deep clean. You'll only need to use it once or twice a month.
Ingredients:
• 1 cup dry oatmeal
• 1 cup blueberries
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 5-6 almonds, whole
Instructions:
Use a blender to puree the ingredients together. Once the mixture is ready, spread it on your face, and then let it dry for 10-15 minutes. After you take it off, make sure to rinse your face with warm water, and then splash on some cooler water, or even toner. As long as you keep it tightly covered, you can store this mask in your fridge for up to a week.
