HOME REMEDIES FOR SKIN PROBLEMS

Dry skin

Drink plenty of water and eat yellow and red fruit like mango 



and papaya, very high in anti oxidant properties.


Tan

Mix papaya pulp with yogurt and cucumber. Apply on face 

and neck three times a week and wash off after half an hour.


Dark spots and sunburn

Aloe vera is useful for the treatment of dark spots and 

sunburn.  Fresh aloe vera pulp can be used as a face mask 

daily. The mineral zinc present in this healing plant is anti-

inflammatory. To lighten dark spots, mix dried and powdered 

lemon peel with curd and add a pinch of turmeric. Wash off 

with water after 20 minutes.


Acne

Boil neem leaves over a low fire. Cool and strain. Make a 

paste of the leaves and apply daily on the face. Wash off 

after half an hour.


Pigmentation

Mix rice powder with curd and use as a facial scrub once or 

twice a week. Apply only on the affected area and rub gently 

on the skin with tiny circular movements. Leave on for a few 

minutes and then wash off with water.
