HOME MADE FACIAL PACKS

Home made face pace for natural radiance...
First dry blend rice in your blender or coffee grinder to get rice powder. If you don’t want to do this, you can use ready made rice flour too. The only difference will be that rice powder will be grittier in texture, so it will be better for exfoliation. Blend Cilantro and Cucumber to a paste. Be careful not to add any water or else the paste will become too runny.Add some lemon juice and rice powder and mix. Your face pack is ready .Apply to face in circular motion. You will feel the gentle exfoliation from the rice and cooling sensation from the cucumber. You can wash off immediately or keep for few minutes for better results.

    DAILY SKIN CARE

    Scrubbing with apricot


    • To make the apricot kernel powder, Cut the apricots around their pits horizontally and twist the halves to separate them, and remove the seeds. Now take these seeds and roast them in the sunlight for 2-3 days. Once they become dry, break the outer shell using a nutshell breaker to get kernels.
    •  Now grind the kernels to a fine powder using a grinder. If you find the gritters too harsh grind them again as per your convenience.
    • To make apricot puree, peel off the outer skin of the fruit and then puree it in a blender. Or you can use a cheese grater and make a paste of it. Do not make it too runny.
    • Now take 2 tablespoon of apricot puree along with 1 of apricot kernel powder in a clean bowl.
    •  Now add ½ tablespoon of honey in it and mix well and voila your homemade apricot scrub is ready.
    Use this scrub this daily to get that stunning skin. It works wonders on eliminating blackheads from the skin leaving your skin extremely moisturised and supple.

     
    Quick Tips:
    1.  If you do not have apricot kernel powder, you may exchange it with almond powder or simple oatmeal.
    2. You can add apricot kernel oil for extra benefits.
    3.  This scrub can stay fresh for 2 days only, so keep it in fridge.
    4. So in order to save time, make the apricot kernel powder and keep it in fridge in a dry container and use it as per your convenience.
