Here are a few more natural beauty tips on proper skincare that you can access in your kitchen:

For Dry Skin and Skin Toner

• Avocado Face Mask - Avocado, lemon and non-fat powdered milk help dry skin become soft and smooth.  Mash a large avocado in bowl.  Add 2 toss of lemon juice and 4-6 toss of non-foot powdered milk or mayonnaise.  Blend well until smooth.  Apply the paste to the face to form a mask.  Use the excess on your arms, neck nape and other surfaces of your skin which were exposed to sunlight and wind.  Let the mask stay for 15 minutes before you sleep.  Apply every 2-3 days. You will notice a great improvement after several weeks.  Don’t use this method if you have oily skin.

• Lemon Exfoliant -  For an effective exfoliant, combine a cup of oatmeal or wheat germ, a cup of non-fat powdered milk, 2 egg whites and juice of 1 big lemon.  Mix thoroughly all the ingredients until they form a paste. Cover your face, neck, and arm with a layer of the mixture and let it dry for 10-15 minutes.  Remove afterwards by rubbing the mask lightly with a circular movement of your palm.  Do this in the evening after resting for an hour from your daily routine.  Apply twice a week for several months.  It is a good skin toner as you will then notice smooth and even skin with beautiful tone and mixture.

• Pandan Leaves Facial Treatment - A warm facial wash using tea made from boiler panda leaves, a dash of anise seeds, and a few sprigs of mint, basil, and rosemary will improve the tone and texture of tired dry skin.  Do this in the morning and evening every now and then.

• Honey exfoliates.  Honey, egg whites, oatmeal, and non-fat powdered milk, when mixed to form a paste, can be used as an exfoliate to even out blemished and rough skin.  Also good for acne treatment.  Make a paste by mixing together 1 cup of oatmeal, 1 egg white, ½ cup non-fat powdered milk, and 1 tablespoon of honey.  Rub the paste on rough or blemished skin. Allow the paste to stay for 5-10 minutes.  Do this before taking a bath at least once or twice a week.  Remember to rub the paste vigorously.

Cuticle Remover and Softener 

• Cuticle Remover - The soles of our feet, our elbows, and sometimes the palms of our hands thicken and develop calluses because of irritation from overuse.  To remove callus or make the skin smoother, vigorously rub the specified area with a mixture of crushed raw papaya and pineapple in the veining, daily or every other day for at least one month.

• Cuticle Softener - A solution of 1 tbsp vinegar or baking soda to a cup of water can soften up the cuticles of your fingers and toe nails and make it easy to remove them.  Soak your nails for a few minutes before trimming.

More Body Odor Tips

• Scalp, Foot and Armpit Odor Remover - Mix 2 cups of vinegar to ½ cup water and 1 tbsp baking soda Rinse your scalp or rub the solution to the armpit.  Let it dry for a few minutes, and then rinse with warm water.  Massage feet while being soaked.  Let dry for 5 minutes then rinse with warm water.  This solution will also whiten armpit and feet if done twice a week.
 

Portable Spa

• Herbal Bath -  A great spa in your home.  Here is a recipe for a soothing herbal bath you can use to relax your mind and body: 2-4 cups mint leaves chopped coarsely, rosemary, minced; 1 cup chamomile leaves, chopped coarsely; 2 cups rose petals, minced; ½ cup fresh oregano leaves, chopped coarsely; a few drops of tea rose oil; 2 quarts boiling water; 6-8 quasars warm water.  Procedure: Mix together mint, rosemary, oregano, chamomile leaves and rose petals in a clean container, preferably clay, ceramic or enamel-coated.  Pour boiling water and allow steeping for 30 minutes.  Strain liquid to warm water.  Add anew drops of tea rose oil for bathing or after rinsing.  You can also double or triple the recipe, use it for soaking yourself in the bathtub for about 15 minutes, to relax yourself before a massage. 

Another variation is replacing rose petals with 2 cups of orange peel (chopped coarsely) and tea rose oil with 6 toss of orange rind.  Oregano could be unused to replace 2 cups of crushed eucalyptus leaves, and tea rose oil, with a few drops of eucalyptus oil.  The variation will depend on your preference and mood.    

These natural skin treatments generally make over your complete inner and outer appearance even if you look no further than your own refrigerator or kitchen cabinet.  All you just need is to grow your viewpoint a bit.
