Improve Skin Complexion in 30 days at Home

A proper skin care regime is needed to achieve bright healthy complexion and prevent it from pollution, dirt and other skin enemies. Good moisturizers with SPF (Sun protection factor) would help us in developing and preventing the complexion and hence moisturizing is compulsory for all skin types. Oily skin needs moisturizers too. Some people needs a quick skin fix before a party, or a wedding to look bright and beautiful. It's not necessary to go for costly skin care products and cosmetics to achieve brighter skin. We can even brighten our skin with natural things available in our kitchen to enhance the skin color and look beautiful. In this post, I am going to give you step by step instructions to improve your complexion to an extent within 30 days. Follow the below skin care regime and become a skin beauty! :)

     I am not going to give you loads to work this time. A simple natural exfoliating fairness facial scrub and a nourishing fairness mask is going to be your routine for these 30 days. The exfoliating scrub should be followed thrice a week for normal and oily skins and if your skin is dry, you are going to do it once twice because it might strip of the moisture from your skin leaving it more drier. Hey wait! Don't escape dry skin girls and guys! :D Only the exfoliating scrub is twice, but you surely need to follow the nourishing mask everyday or in alternate days. This is to nourish your skin and remove the dullness which is caused by dryness.

With the above procedures I would also mention some skin care and diet tips to follow, to get better results on your skin. First, I'll give the recipes of the exfoliating scrub and nourishing face mask.

Exfoliating Fairness Facial Scrub

Ingredients

• Orange Peel Powder - Two teaspoons
• Rose water - Required amount
• Dry skinned people keep in mind : Rose water is for oily skinned girls and guys, if you have normal to dry or extremely dry skin, I suggest you to add raw creamy milk instead of rose water. Additionally, you can also add milk cream and honey to this scrub (to prevent a stretchy feel and dryness)

How to Use

• Wash your face with a good face wash or soap depending on your skin type.
• Mix the orange peel powder with rose water (Oily skins), or milk (As I said for dry skins) and blend well to make a paste. The paste wouldn't be fine and it can't act as a exfoliate if it is fine, so don't worry.
• Apply this paste on the surface of your face and neck evenly. Leave on for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Let the ingredients work well on your skin to lighten it, just relax. You can place 2 cucumber slices or cold water dipped cotton pads above your eyes for a refreshment in this mean time.
• Now comes the important step, cleanse your hands and make your face wet by dipping your fingers in water and tapping. Now gently scrub your face and neck with an upward circular motion for about 10 minutes with your finger tips.
• After scrubbing, wash off with cold and clean water. Pat dry and moisturize, a heavy creamy moisturizer for dry skins and a light one for oily skins.

Results and Benefits

Orange has lots of antioxidants and citrus properties which are very essential for one's skin. It not only naturally bleaches your skin, it also acts as a wrinkle remover, spots and tan remover and skin lightener. So, following this above scrub regularly bleaches your skin in a natural way, removing dead cells, tan, giving a natural radiant glow which even skin lightening serums cannot give. Orange peel powder with rose water scrub removes excess oil while the same peel powder with the milk and honey mixture prevents skin from drying. So, the benefits and glow is same from the both scrubs, just the ingredients differs a bit as per your skin type. This scrub is recommend for brides also as it would make them look glowing and beautiful in their wedding day :) I recommend every girl or guy who craves for bright complexion to follow this scrub and get faster results.

Nourishing Fairness Mask

Ingredients

• Almonds - 5
• Oatmeal - 2 teaspoons
• Honey - 1 teaspoon
• Milk cream - required
• Rose water - required
• Oily skinned people keep in mind: This mask contains moisturizing ingredients which suits only dry skins well, so it is better to avoid milk cream and use lime juice instead to prevent excess oil secretion.

How to Use

• Soak almonds overnight in milk or water. Peel them and paste them in the morning.
• Mix this almond paste with oatmeal, honey, milk cream and rose water and blend well to form a smooth creamy face mask.
• Cleanse your face and apply this pack covering face and neck, avoiding the areas around eyes.
• Allow the mask to dry for 15 to 20 minutes and wash off with plenty of clean water. Moisturize!

Results and Benefits

Almonds makes skin smooth, soft and radiant while the other ingredients moisturizes the skin and provide required nourishment to the skin. Honey is also a natural skin lightener. This pack effectively cures acne spots, blemishes, tan and clogged pores. You can use this mask on the very same day when the previously mentioned scrub is performed, to nourish and calm down the skin and to retain it's natural oils. Dry skinned people are suggested to follow this mask once in two days or even everyday to achieve good results in these 30 days of skin regime :) Oily guys and girls, twice a week is enough. :)

Other tips: Drink plenty of water and use a high SPF sunscreen in these 30 days to prevent the fairness you gained or else the results will be lost. A good 8 hours sleep maintaining your skin clean these days is also very important for good results.

Hope you liked the skin regime package. Drop your comments for doubts :D I am here to help!

Remedy 1:

Cucumber Overnight Fairness Pack

If you think that no face pack can make your your skin fair then you are wrong. I have tried a home made paste which really worked. Just follow these simple steps and your skin will look more fairer and spot free.

Things required to make a paste are:

Firstly take out the cucumber juice by using mixer. Now add rosewater and glycerine in equal quantities to the cucumber juice. Make sure that the paste should neither be thin nor too thick. Now apply it over your face at night time before going to sleep.
       In the morning, wash your face with clean water and pat dry. After some days you will see amazing change in the complexion of your skin and even the dark spots will lighten.

Tip: If you feel lazy making this everyday then you can make this paste for 3 days and you can keep it fridge and use it everyday.


Remedy 2:
Banana Glow Face Pack

To give instant glow to your face before going to a party or something, you can try a banana face pack. To make this pack you don't have to make any effort. You just have to peel banana and take out its pulp and crush it to make a smooth paste. You can make this paste using mixer as well. Now apply this banana paste on your face and leave it for 10-15 minutes. Later, remove it with clean water and pat dry.

Blossom Kochhar Aroma Magic Oxy Pack Review

by Supriya

Hello beauties,
Remember this dialogue from Jab Tak Hai Jaan - “Har Aadmi ka ek fitoor hota hai, uska fitoor agar poora nahi hua, toh woh paagal ho jaata hai. Ek Paagal tumhare saamne hai, aur doosre paagal ki yahan pe koi jagaa nahi hai!” {Every man has an obsession, and if it is not fulfilled, then he may go mad. One crazy person is standing before you and there is no place for another one here!}. Don't get confused, I am not to discuss about the movie here, but about the fitoor. Face packs - Yes I am crazy about them. And face pack + aroma magic = deadly combination. I mean, not really!.. I hoard face packs like crazy and will lay my hands on any pack if its ingredient list entices me. So ladies, today I am going to review this beauty called Oxy pack from AM. Read on to know how it fared.

Color, Consistency & Fragrance: It is a transparent gel pack with a thick consistency. It smells very mildly of may be grapefruit, seaweed and aloe gel (fragrance is difficult to decipher) and the texture is very smooth

•  Read: 4 Natural Skin Whitening Recipes with Lemon

How it works: Aroma Magic Oxy Pack claims to help in all of above areas. It is advisable for all skin types. I cannot claim about oxygenation and cell regeneration, as specific test may be necessary to ascertain the fact. But the product surely lives up to the claim of removal of dirt and dust and leaves my skin looking fresh and clean and brighter. The tub lasted me for a month with alternate day usage. It has not caused any eruptions on my skin. Overall, I am pretty happy with the results.You need to apply it on your cleansed face and keep it on for 20 minutes. The company advices to wipe it off thereafter but I prefer washing it. Since it is a gel formulation, you will feel the cooling sensation on application. After a minute or two, a slight tingling starts, that means the product is working. It doesn't dry off completely.

You can also use it with AM Enzyme Peel Pack, as suggested by the company. I have used it both ways.

PROS of Aroma Magic Oxy Pack:

• Contains all natural ingredients
• Helps in toxin removal and skin brightening
• Does not dry out the skin
• Suitable for oily skinned beauties too as it is gel based
• Doesn't irritate or cause any breakout for sensitive skin people

CONS of Aroma Magic Oxy Pack:

• Pricey for the quantity compared to the other face packs
• Tub packaging (I apply it using a face pack brush to overcome the hygiene issue)

Makeup and Beauty Home Rating: 4/5

My Recommendation: I would recommend this face pack to everyone.

Would I Repurchase?: Yes. I am already on my second tub now.

4 Natural Skin Whitening Recipes with Lemon

Hello Beauties,
Today we are going to discuss about four skin lightening recipes with lemon juice those are very natural on our skin. There are several fairness creams, fairness lotions and fairness serums available in the market today. Many claims to be 'fully' herbal and natural too, but do you think they are natural 100%? Not at all. They would be containing some bases and preservatives to prevent them going bad but these 4 lemon DIY recipes I am going to mention in this post are fresh and moreover, they are natural on skin. Rather than saying these as 'skin whitening recipes' I would like to name these lemon DIYs as skin brightening face packs. Because there is nothing specially beautiful in just having a pale skin. Pale or dusky, tan or dark, if you have a clear, glowing and bright skin, that is beautiful! Find below the top three skin lightening ingredients from your home and make your skin glow naturally!

• Read: 2 Quick Home Remedies to Lighten Your Complexion

Skin Lightening Properties of Lemon

Believe it or not, citrus extracts contain great natural skin whitening properties. Lemon juice natural bleaches the skin and fastens the process of dark spot fading, thus giving you a fairer and brighter skin. If you find the lemon juice to be over acidic on your skin, go for sweet lime. Find below these 4 quick fairness recipes with lemon juice for different skin types.

Skin Lightening Lemon Face Pack for Normal Skin
Combine a teaspoon of lemon juice with a teaspoon of green gram powder and mix well. Add few drops of rose water to this thick mixture to make a creamy paste. There you're done with your own skin lightening lemon face pack! The green gram powder helps in removing the dead skin cells while the lemon juice work on natural skin lightening. Rose water is added here to calm down the skin.

Skin Lightening Lemon Face Pack for Dry Skin
Using lemon on dry skin is a tricky job. It might dry out your skin more if not used in a proper way with proper base. Combine a teaspoon of olive oil with a teaspoon of honey and put in few drops of fresh lime juice to it. After cleansing your face with a gentle facial clear, apply this thin pack evenly and massage for 2-3 minutes. Then leave on for 10-15 minutes before washing it off. The lemon natural brightens the skin and the olive oil helps in preventing skin's moisture loss. Honey is also an excellent natural ingredient to improve skin complexion.

Skin Lightening Lemon Face Pack for Oily Skin
Take a small bowl and add a teaspoon of fullers earth to it. Now pour 2 teaspoons of rose water diluted lemon juice to the fullers earth (In 2:1 ratio) and blend well to make a smooth paste. This face pack effectively cleanses the skin and removes excessive oil production to give you a fresh, bright and matte skin for a long time!

Skin Whitening Lemon Face Pack for Sensitive Skin
While handling lemon in DIY recipes, we should be more careful to use them on sensitive skin types. Lime juice usage may end up in breakouts if just applied directly on to the skin. Mix 1/2 a teaspoon of glycerin with 1/2 a teaspoon of carrot/apple juice. Now combine this liquid with 3-4 drops of lemon juice and your pure skin lightening lemon face pack for sensitive skin is ready. This face pack is comparatively thin but has a same effects on your skin as the other ones. Just layer it up on your clean face and wash away after 15 minutes.

Tidbit: After using your lemon face pack, moisturization is must in all skin types. Choose one recipe above which suits your skin type. Use these natural DIY skin lightening face packs for at least twice in a week to see visible results faster. These recipes also help in clearing out sun tan and dark patches with regular usage. Do not use them if your skin is allergic to lemon.

Do you use lemon juice in your DIY face packs?

Aurita Naturals Transformation Cream Review

Aurita Naturals Transformation Cream Review

Light skin is a huge craze among Indian women. Whatever their skin tone is, most of the women in India long for white and paler skin and of course it is called beautiful in their point of view. For me, pale, dusky, wheatish or dark; a skin that is smooth and has no flaws is the real beautiful skin. When I came across this Aurita Naturals Transformation Cream which is meant for fairness, I was actually tempted to use it; not to lighten or whiten my skin, but to remove the flaws, dark spots and pimple marks from the face. My facial skin looks soft and bright when the dark spots are removed and this would seem similar in many of your cases as well. Fine, let us talk and discuss about the working of this Aurita Naturals Transformation Cream now.

My Experience with Aurita Naturals Transformation Cream

Packaging: Aurita Naturals Transformation cream is packed in an off-white sturdy plastic tub with black labels on it. The cap of the tub is screw-typed and an inner lid is present inside to prevent any mess while using this cream. Though being travel friendly, tubs aren't that hygienic to use hence I wish this would have come in a tube.

Colour, Consistency and Fragrance: This is a creamy, thick, white coloured cream with a pungent smell. I personally did not like its smell and that is a main drawback of this product according to me. However I guess this smell is because of the natural ingredients present in this product. :) Very sensitive noses may not like it.

How it works: While picking it online, I thought that is like a day fairness cream but this one is not a cream actually. It's something like a face pack. Yes! We need to apply it and wash it after 20 minutes. They should have named it as Aurita Naturals Transformation Face Pack :P Ok that's ok. I have no issues with it, anything is okay for me if it is going to fade my dark spots. After cleansing my face, I smoothed this cream (read face pack!) over my facial skin and uff, the pungent smell bothered me a lot. It is sour and strong actually. But still, I adjusted it and kept this cream cum face pack on my face for 20 minutes as mentioned and washed away after that. Voila! I can say that it has really brightened my face visibly. My face is left soft, matte and bright. You would surely need a moisturizer after using this cream pack as it leaves your facial skin a bit tight but the glow is incredible. It removed my new tan very well and made my facial skin radiant. You will need only a small quantity for the whole face and so a single tub will last very longer. The price cannot be considered expensive while seeing the results on my skin and hence I would say this is an excellent skin lightening product (I don't mind the fragrance) for brides and tanned girls! Go pick one for sure if you want brighten skin with less dark spots.

Pros of Aurita Naturals Transformation Cream:

• Does really removes the tan and brightens up skin instantly!
• A small quantity is enough for the whole face and neck
• Spreads easily onto the skin without any hardness
• You can also use this on your tanned arms and feet
• Washes away quickly without leaving any greasiness behind
• Leaves skin matte and hence this is a great product for oily skinned girls
• Regular use (I used it twice or twice in a week) lightened my dark spots considerably
• Price is okay when compared to the results.

Cons of Aurita Naturals Transformation Cream:

• The pungent smell :( but I don't mind it for the result it delivers
• You will definitely need a moisturizer after using this cream cum pack.

Makeup and Beauty Home Rating: 4.5/5


Recommendation: Yes yes! I highly recommend it. Go pick one for yourself if you want to remove your tan instantly. This would also act as a pre-party face pack well to give a quick glow to your skin.


Would I Repurchase?: No doubt! I am picking it all the time.

Homemade Suntan Remover with Curd

Curd is one of the best natural skincare product which is available in every kitchen. It contains lots of Zinc, calcium, Vitamin B and protein. Zinc is known to be an excellent remedy for acne while calcium helps in skin renewal and cell repair. Vitamin B and protein protects skin from aging and gives an healthy glow. Curd naturally whitens the skin. From my childhood, I have seen my aunt using curd every evening after she reaches home from her work. I wondered why she uses it and got a wonderful answer.

Curd has lots of special and natural qualities which removes SUNTAN. In India and some other countries, majority of the people both men and women are tired of using creams and lotions to whiten their skin, getting no results at all.
