Natural Beauty Tips

OLIVE OIL:

* Heat a cup of olive oil in the microwave for a few seconds. Massage onto dry
areas of your skin.
* Heat enough olive oil to fill half a small clothes basin.
Soak your hands in the oil for about 10 minutes, followed by the feet.
* Use it as a conditioner by leaving warmed olive oil on
your hair for 15 minutes before shampoo.
* Remove all traces of mascara by dipping an overused
mascara wand into some olive oil and use it to apply on your lashes
the way you would mascara.

CUCUMBER: Chop up a cucumber and drizzle a few drops of lemon juice in the mixture. Apply on your face.

LEMON: For sparkling teeth, mix one teaspoon of fresh lemon juice with one teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda and half teaspoon of salt. Use like toothpaste once a week.

TOMATO: Peel a tomato and chop it finely before spreading on face. Work as an effective cleanser and gentle astringent to tighten pores.

GINGER: Chop ginger and mix it with body lotion for a facial scrub. Avoid the sensitive eye area.

MILK: Soak a cotton pad with cool fresh milk and press it gently all over your face. Besides protein to feed your face, it gets rid of dirt thoroughly.

EGGS: For a temporary facelift, use just the eggwhite. Mix it with a tablespoon of honey and spread over face and throat in an upward motion. Leave on for 15 minutes and rinse off with warm water.

PAPAYA: Mash half a ripe papaya with two teaspoons of honey. Apply to areas of face that are prone to wrinkles such as between the brows and along the sides of the nose. Leave on it for 10 minutes.
