Hi Everyone,

Natural herbal skin care has been the choice of beautiful women the world over for thousands of years. That’s why so many have returned to the natural herbal skin care routines that are based on some of the same key ingredients that might have been used by legendary beauties like Cleopatra or Marie Antoinette.

Herbal ingredients are good for the skin because rarely will you encounter any allergy from their use. These natural ingredients can help to moisturize dry skin and contain cooling botanicals to promote the healing of blemishes and a complete skin care regimen. The benefits include slowing down the aging process and diminishing those fine lines and crow’s feet.
Natural herbal skin care can be the answer if you have sensitive skin and are prone to rashes and or break-outs.Using natural, soothing ingredients can actually calm and soothe your skin, reducing the number of break-outs and rashes.
By using natural herbal skin care products, you’re improving the condition of your skin and decreasing the likelihood of future skin problems.

Here are some do it yourself tips for a naturally healthy skin:

Skin Cleanser
You would almost always find unboiled milk within your reach in your kitchen. But did you know that it is a simple chemical free cleanser. All you need to do is dip a piece of cotton wool in milk and wipe your face with it. It also cleans unseen dirt and goes down into your pores. Another fine cleanser is almond oil, especially effective in protecting the delicate skin under the eyes. People with pimples and oily skin should not use these cleansers.

Skin Moisturizer
For normal skin care, you can take 1 cup of yogurt, 1 tablespoon orange juice and 1 tablespoon lemon juice and mix it into a paste. Apply it on your face as a mask and keep it on for 15 minutes. Then clean it off with a wet tissue and watch your complexion glow. For dry skin, you could use a mixture of cooked oatmeal and honey; it will not only help moisturize the skin but also acts as a good cleansing agent.

Skin Nourishment and Bleach
For nourishing your face try a protein mask. You can prepare this mask by first soaking 1 tbsp. urad dal and 4 almonds in water overnight and then grinding them into a paste. You can then apply this protein mask to your face and wash it off after half an hour. This exceptional protein mask will not only nourish the skin but also bleach it.

Wrinkle Prevention and Softer Skin
To prevent wrinkles and soften your skin, you could try pure castor oil; it is known to slow down the aging process of the skin.

Skin Conditioner
Another simple and excellent skin conditioner can be made out of 1 tbsp. honey blended with 2 tbsp. cream of milk. Leave it on for a few minutes and wash it off. It works like magic.

Skin Blemishes
For skin blemishes, you can try rubbing a raw potato on your face.

Sun-Protection Lotion
When you face the onslaught of summer, cool off with a good home-made sun-protection lotion made from a refrigerated concoction of cucumber juice and equal amounts of glycerine and rose water. Try it, it’s really cool.

put lemon juce mixed with rose water or even alone on the face before going to bed in night helps a lot.because juice of citrus fruits helps to balance ph of skin.never go in the sun light with any citrusfruit juice applied on face.
