How to get rid of dead cells from your skin?


Dead cells....ohh yes they make the skin look dead no doubt about it.Dead cells are actually the cells that have been replaced my new ones but are still lying there on your skin....difficult to remove with your face wash ofcourse.....making skin look dull and lustreless!!

No problem....here is the solution.Take a small piece of ripe Papaya(make sure u remove the outer peel and the seeds)now apply the pulp on your face and neck.Leave it on your face for about 15 minutes and then wash off with water.Papaya has got a natural protein dissolving enzyme papain that will digest or loosen up the dead cells from your face.

Do leave a comment about how you felt about your skin on trying this small and simple remedy.(do not use it if you have active pimples or any other inflammatory lesions on your face)

Mud Mask magic for oily skin



Mud mask is an effective way to get rid of excess oil from your skin.Mud has a unique property to absorb any liquid that comes in its contact.This is the main principle of these masks.

Most popular are multani mitti or chandan masks.Take the powder and make it into a fine paste.Apply it over your skin preventing the eye and mouth areas.Now let it dry.Once dried you will feel a tightening effect on your skin.Now notice the dried mask in the mirror.You will see some rounded spots that look like wet mud on the nose area and around it.It is actually the oil from your skin that has come out with capillary action and is absorbed in the mud mask.

Wash off with water.You will notice that the pores of your face have become a bit smaller.With repeated use it will loosen out the dirt in the pores.Use the mask once or twice a week.
