Nourishing face packs of vegetables and fruits are very popular in India. There’re may be lots of them, try some of them. The only condition – all products should be natural, not subjected to chemicals during growth.<\/p>\n

1. Mix crushed tomatoes, cucumbers and melon; apply on face for several minutes. Then rinse with water.
2. Crush plums or apricots carefully, apply on face for 10 minutes, rinse with warm water.<\/p>\n

Yolk face pack is also very popular in India (yolk contains protein which is wholesome for skin).
Add some honey to it, apply face pack for 20 minutes. Rinse with cool water.<\/p>\n

If your eyes are tired and swollen, such cosmetic will help: take two pieces of soft material, wrap an ice-cube and a piece of cucumber in each one. Lie down for a while with such compress on eyelids.<\/p>\n

To make skin soft, clean and fresh add in the bath:
– 2-3 table spoons of starch and a tea spoon of glycerine;
– two cups of household soda and two table spoons of salt plus several drops of essential oil
(lavender or pine-tree). Mix everything, keep in a can, and add 1 table spoon per bath;<\/p>\n

– Any vegetable oil (almond, olive, sunflower-seed);
– A spoon of honey, to make skin smooth and silky;
– A glass of dried milk to soften skin, but you can also use usual milk for these purposes.<\/p>\n

Such baths improve your skin structure; have a calming effect, what is just necessary after a stressed day.<\/p>\n
