Default Common problems and simple solutions

For a blemish-free, pimple-free vibrant skin:- Soak basil seeds overnight in water. (Half a teaspoon is sufficient cos basil expands within minutes). A small glass will do. It needn't be full to the brim. Have it early in the morning, preferably on an empty stomach.
It also cures heartburn, constipation and indigestion. It basically keeps you cool.
Basil- I think its called 'takmeria' or 'tukmeria' in Hindi…It is also used in Falooda... Not to be confused with 'Tulsi'…

For drying and chapping of lips:- Apply ghee to your lips to avoid drying, cracking and chapping. I know it stinks, but it works amazingly well. 'Ghee' is a wonderful moisturizer.

Shoe-bite:- Rub candle wax in and around your shoes. Front edges, inner edges, sole, etc. Alternatively, you can grease it with Parachute coconut oil… Nariyal tel…

Weight loss:- Lukewarm water mixed with a teaspoon of honey and lime is very effective. It is far better than skipping meals in a desperate attempt to lose weight.

Oily skin:- Maybelline's WHITESTAY UV fairness compact power works wonders for greasy, oily skin. Don't mistake this for an 'instant fairness' tip or a way to lighten your skin tone. I am specifically suggesting this for those with oily skin.

These miraculous tips are based on first hand experiences. hope you girls like it
do try it out... cheers

One thing I wanted to add to this as a DON'T DO: (and please correct me if I'm wrong) using Carmex on your lips actually dries them out more and seems to make them chap easier. I've heard that it's because there is little tiny pieces of glass in it, but I don't believe that. I don't think they'd be allowed to do that!

Another weight loss tip would be to drink hot lemon.

Just add a slice of lemon to a cup of boiled water and drink. It's a brilliant detox, and if you can manage to drink two cups a day, you will see some weight loss.

Yes, hot lemon does work but it tastes vile.

I got to drinking two cups per day for two weeks and I did lose weight on it, but the taste was just too nasty for me to be able to contiune drinking it.

Hey gals .take these ten beauty tips from me.


If your skin is rough, apply orange juice to your face. It will

give you skin a smooth and soft texture.

Cabbage juice mixed with one teaspoon of honey is effective in

combating wrinkles.

Those who suffer from scars can get relief by applying a mix

made up of red sandalwood and honey. It’s quite effective!

For a radiant look, make a mix consisting of 50ml of tomato

juice and one teaspoon of lemon juice and apply to your face.

Those having trouble with acne and pimples should mash some

fresh garlic and apply on the face. Wait for about 15 minutes

and then wash off. Garlic’s antibiotic properties will erase the

problem.

In case you are suffering from blackheads, make a past of honey,

oatmeal and egg white and apply this paste on your skin. Wait

for about 10 minutes and rise using warm water.

If you have too much oily skin, you can remove the excess oil by

applying a past of wheat flour mixed with water. Wait till the

paste dries on the face and them wash off.
Dry skin can become itchy so if you have this problem, take a

ripe banana and mash it. Add one teaspoon of honey to this mash

and mix well, apply it on your face. Your dry skin will become

moisturised and your skin will also tightened.

You can peel of apple skin and use it to cleanse your skin.

Take an ice cube and run in on your face to increase blood

circulation
and revitalise your skin.

Try any one or a combination of these beauty tips depending on

what kind of results you wish to see, the type of skin you have

and what kind of problems you have on your face (e.g.

blackheads, pimples).

Prachute coconut oil does not translate to nariyal tel

coconut oil translates to nariyal tel ... parachute is simply a brand
