Due to the current climatic conditions and pollution, our skin demands more care and cleaning. Luckily for us, there are age-old skincare products, secrets, and Ayurveda. From getting glowing skin by preventing breakouts to preventing anti-aging, these beauty tips can solve all the problems related to your skin and hair.

There are many things already available in your kitchen that can help you with many things apart from cooking. You can add these to your pre-determined skincare routine or create a new one, but rest assured, these ingredients are safe and have been tried and tested for centuries.

Rose water

Forget toners rich in chemicals, which damage your skin. Rosewater is considered very good for your skin and was used by queens and even princesses for amazing skin. Apply it on your face with a cotton ball or spray it on your face to tone and refresh the face. Keep it in your fridge to really enhance its soothing and refreshing effect. Rosewater smells amazing and is great for sensitive skin too and comes cheap.

Honey and Sugar for Exfoliation

Indian skin is known to be slightly oily compared to other skin types, so exfoliating is especially important to unclog pores, especially with heavy pollution. Mix honey and sugar in a bowl and use this paste to exfoliate your skin.

Lemon for blackheads

Lemon is a natural skin brightener and exfoliator due to its acidic properties. Cut a lemon into slices and rub it on your face to de-tan, make your skin glowing as well as get rid of blackheads. If you want, you can also add a little honey to it. Honey is one of the best natural moisturizers and has anti-aging properties, combining the two can give you youthful, glowing, and blemish-free skin.

Coconut oil

Coconut oil is an essential beauty product for Indian women. It is as wonderful for the skin as it is for our hair. Use it as a makeup remover instead of an expensive beauty product. Leave it on your face for a few minutes and wash it off to remove stubborn makeup while hydrating your skin. Use it to moisturize for soft lips along with avoiding dry skin. You can use it to get rid of dark circles. For this, massage this oil around the eyes. Do this regularly and watch it disappear within a few days.

Turmeric

Indian girls are not new to the power of turmeric. This is one of the reasons why we have a special turmeric function before marriage. It has antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and astringent properties that help fight acne and get soft and glowing skin. Make a paste by mixing turmeric with rose water or milk in the best paste and use it as a scrub on your face. It slows down hair growth in unwanted places and is a great home remedy to fight skin as well as facial hair.
