Using a mixture
of equal parts of vegetable shortening (Crisco) and cornmeal
as a makeup remover/exfoilant, makes your skin look as smooth
as peaches and cream!! :) |

Blemishes - BY CHRISTINA |
|
When you have
a pimple, bug-bite, red blotches or just blemishes in general,
put eyes drops on in (ex. visine) and the redness is gone in
a few minutes. |

Oily/ Acned Skin -BY Y.CHEN |
|
First make an
exfoliator by adding a spoonful of very fine sugar (avoid brown
[Sugar in the Raw] sugar) and a few drops of lemon juice into
your everyday face wash. Do not add too much sugar or it will
be too rough and grainy (if you did so already, dilute with lemon
juice). Take half of a bittermelon (looks like of a green and
lumpy squash), remove the seeds, and put in juicer/blender to
make pulpy. Take the pulp, save the juice, and apply the pulp
on to face, (this make be messy if the pulp is too watery and
runny), rest for 20 minutes. Remove the pulp with splashes of
cold water, pour the juice into hand and massage into skin, splash
away with more cold water. The cooling and detoxing property
(according to Chinese herbal sciences) of the bittermelon, will
cool and soothe the acne that is often associated with oily skin.
The result: smooth, calmed, and toned skin!!! |

Dry Skin Eliminator! BY BELINDA C |
|
To help get rid of dry flaky skin,
I drink up to 8 glasses of water a day, take a multi-vitamin
and vitamin E daily and apply vaseline intensive care lotion
to any dry skin areas. I have gone from dry, itchy skin to soft,
supple skin in less than two weeks of daily care! I feel great!
And look fine : ) |
