Beauty is one thing we women have wanted to achieve for ages. Chemicals can damage your skin so we turn to natural beauty treatments to do the trick without harmful side effects. If you are in favor of beauty and looking your best, try home beauty recipes.
Beauty products can claim that they are organic or natural on the bottles but be not totally truthful. The actual natural products can comprise a small part of the cream, oil, or shampoo. The fillers and other preservatives could be irritating to even the healthiest of faces.
Here are a few facts. Cosmetic products begin in the lab as chemical formulas. This is the same way that medicines begin. The use of natural ingredients for medicines and cosmetics goes back centuries to ancient civilizations. Today, cosmetic companies believe they are going one better when they add artificial ingredients to achieve the same result. Unnatural additions can bother your skin when applied.
What's wrong with nature? You probably have many natural beauty ingredients in your home right now. Home beauty recipes include fruits, herbs, flowers, and vegetables as ingredients. If you don't have your own garden, choose products that have been cultivated without chemicals. Some pesticides can leech into fruits and vegetables.
1. Lemons - They are tart but true to your skin. Lemons can ease a sore throat and also lighten dark spots on the skin. As a natural astringent, it pulls impurities out of the skin. Half a lemon is all you need to rub away skin problems. Mix a bit of reduced lemon juice with water for a naturally lemon scented hair spray.
2. Roses - Red, white, yellow, or pink, they are all fragrant and beautiful. Rose petals are soft and, when added to a hot bath, transfer that fragrance to your body. Create your own rose water by steeping roses and adding coconut milk.
3. Strawberries - They taste sweet and smell fragrant. The seeds can set your teeth and gums in a fit, though. Turn your fit into a functional treatment for your skin. Combine the strawberries with olive oil and coarse salt to create an exfoliating scrub for your body.
4. Bananas - Who knew they were good for more than making bread? The main vitamin in bananas is potassium. It works in the body to balance our water composition. On the face, it can do the same thing. Crush a banana and combine in a blender with egg white and plain yogurt to create a facial mask to remove excess oil and impurities.
5. Honey - Bees can appreciate this treatment. Natural honey contains antibacterial properties that are good for your skin. Create a facial mask by using raw honey and cooked oatmeal or honey and vinegar. Vinegar is also an astringent that works for oily skin. The oatmeal provides nourishment for dry skin.
Natural beauty treatments are cost efficient and effective. Also, you avoid irritating fillers and chemicals. Whip up a batch on a weekly basis if you need to. It's a small sacrifice for a lifetime of beauty. - 15252
