Turmeric or haldi is the object that comes to our mind first. Haldi has curcumin, the most important component of the skin in summer especially. Turmeric is used in many beauty and cosmetic products, because it’s really good for your kin. We’re going to use turmeric in our first remedy.

Gram flour

The gram flour paste or face pack is exceptionally good if you have oily skin. Mix gram flour with rose water and sandalwood powder, add some skimmed milk and make a thick paste.

Apply the paste on your face and then let it dry for 20-25 minutes. Wash your face with lukewarm water and you are done.

Green tea leaves

Drinking green tea is good for your overall health and also the skin. But, the green tea leaves that is left in the tea bag is an important remedy for all the skin problems.

Aloe extract

The aloe leaves are one of the most magical herbs in terms of skin care. You will find many creams which say that they are rich in aloe vera extract. Aloe vera can be just magical for skin and it has many other benefits as well.

Cut the leaves from top and bottom. Slowly take off the thick skin and then you get the pulp or the aloe extract. Collect the extract and store it in a bottle. You can refrigerate the extract and then apply it when you get time. Keep the aloe extract for 15 minutes, and then wash off. Your skin will feel soft and glowing instantly.

Lemon

Lemon is natural bleaching agent, and it will remove the dead skin cells and will make the skin glowing. It is better to avoid sunlight after applying lemon juice. Cut the lemon in two halves, take one half and apply some salt on the lemon.

The lemon with salt will act as a natural scrubber and it will remove all the impurities and oil from your skin. Scrub it gently on your face, neck, hands, and elbows. Keep it for 10 – 12 minutes maximum and then wash your face with cold water to get glowing skin.

Tomatoes

Tomatoes are bleaching agents as well, just like the lemons. They can enter the pores of your skin, remove the dirt and oil, and thus bring a glow to your skin.

Take a piece of tomato and sprinkle some sugar. The sugar granules work as scrub, and give the nutrition to the skin. The tomato slice along with sugar is a cleanser, rub it on your skin, face and neck. Leave it for 10-15 minutes or till it dries. Then wash off with cold water. The tomato pulp and the sugar together will help you get glowing skin.
