Top 4 Effective Natural Beauty Tips From Kitchen

Natural beauty is appreciated the world over. There are different aspects linked with being beautiful. One such link is people who are blessed with beautiful skin. Most people firmly believe that beauty is skin deep. Yes, literally too!

How healthy, radiant, hydrated and glowing your skin looks, says a lot about your natural beauty. Many people feel that real beauty doesn’t need any makeup or touch-ups to look good. If your skin is healthy, you’re good to go anywhere without any trace of makeup. Talking about skin, Indian beauties, unarguably, are the owners of the most naturally beautiful skin in this world. Here’s a sneak peek – Aishwarya Rai, Sushmita Sen, Priyanka Chopra – these few names are just the tip of the ice berg.

However, the ever-changing weather conditions, high pollution and stressful lives call for the need of an intense skin care regimen. The more you care for your skin, the healthier and radiant it will be. No two women have the same type of skin and each type should be taken care of in a different way.

1. Ghee


Indian women possess luscious pouts that are often prone to cracking and chapping. Indian women also experience cracked heels during winters. You can use ghee for curing both your chapped lips and cracked heels. Here’s how:

a. For Lips: Right with onset of the winter, your lips start cracking.

Solution: Clarified butter or ghee. This creamy delight helps in hydrating lips like no other lip balm. Your lips get a velvety smoothness and a radiant shine too.

b. For Heels: Winters or very dry summers call in the problem of cracked heels.

Solution: Clarified butter or ghee. Rich with saturated fats, ghee has the innate ability to quickly heal the cracks on your heels too.

2. Turmeric powder

Pure turmeric is well-known for its antiseptic, anti-inflammatory and astringent properties. And here is a list of ways you can put these qualities to good use for your skin.

Fight Acne: Turmeric has been widely used to thwart off acne breakouts. Exfoliate your oily skin with a mild scrub prepared by mixing this powder with lemon juice to solve the problem.
Prevents Growth Of Facial Hair: South Indian women, in earlier days, used to apply a fine paste of turmeric powder mixed with water. They did this daily while bathing to prevent the growth of facial hair.

3. Honey

Most of us are not even aware of the fact that our grand moms used honey for keeping their skin young and rejuvenated. Here’s how you can use honey for keeping your skin young.

For Dry Skin: Honey, known for its moisturizing properties, is a blessing for Indian women with dry skin. Regular application can not only solve dry skin problems, but also add a shine and glow to the face. It helps keeping all fungal infections and other skin problems at bay.

4. Coconut Oil

Sincetime immemorial, we have always looked at coconut oil as good for hair. But coconut oil has many benefits for skin too. Here are few simple ones you can use on a regular basis.

Makeup Remover: I just see no point in spending hundreds of rupees on those costly makeup removers which only add to our skin problems on a longer run. Use coconut oil as a makeup remover. Just apply about a teaspoon of coconut oil on your skin, leave for about two minutes and wash off with a mild cleanser. Coconut oil has innate moisturizing and exfoliating properties.
Exfoliating Agent: Use coconut oil along with baking soda to prepare a mild exfoliating agent. Regular application of coconut oil on your skin will help you gain a radiant, younger-looking and supple skin. This applies to even those who have oily skin.
For Oily Skin: The sole thing you need to do if you have oily skin – just apply very little of this oil and steam so that the oil gets completely absorbed.
Hydrates Skin: Just mix about 2 tbsp of coconut oil to your warm bath to keep your dry and itchy skin hydrated. Regular application of coconut oil is known to render soft, luscious lips too.
Fights Dark Circles: If dark circles are troubling you, don’t worry. Just dab a little coconut oil and subtly massage into the eye area. Follow this regularly for about two weeks and you will see the result for yourself.
