5 easy skincare tips using home ingredients
Skin is a very sensitive part of our body especially when it comes to facial skin. Our face is exposed to make-up and other products daily. These products damage our skin. If we do not take care of that, it can lead to skin cancer.
As compared to synthetic products, natural ingredients are more reliable and soothing. They have no side effects as well.
So, without delay, I am going to share my favorite easy skincare tips that I personally use. All the ingredients are from your home. Just mix them up and protect your skin.
- Honey+Milk+gram flour
Honey is a natural ingredient with antibacterial properties. It prevents the loss of moisture from your skin. Milk is the best cleanser for facial skin. It contains Lactic acid that has anti-aging properties. Milk removes the dead cells and helps new cells to grow. Gram flour aka basin is an ingredient that is used for skin care for ages in Asian countries especially India and Pakistan. It contains Zinc that is very helpful to treat acne. It is very effective in soothing inflamed skin and controlling excess sebum production.

2. Glycerine+Lemon+Rose water
Glycerine acts as an emollient and humectant for the skin. It means it retains the moisture in the skin and makes it super soft. Lemon is a gift of nature to remove dark spots and blemishes from your skin. It is also effective in controlling acne and removing blackheads.
