A few tips to avoid depressing days when your skin refuses to co-operate
- While indulging in your weekly clean-ups, use hot milk instead of hot water to steam your face. Bring the milk to boiling point, pour it out in a warm bowl and steam your face while covered with a thick towel. Milk has lactic acid that unclogs pores, leaving you with skin that is moisturized and clean.
- Mix a tablespoon of honey with two crushed aspirin tablets to form a thick paste. Apply it to the face and leave it on for 20 minutes before washing off to get refreshed skin. Aspirins have beta-hydroxy acid, which is an ingredient in a lot of high-end face masks.
- The current makeup trend is skin that's fresh and flawless. Wondering how to get the look? For normal skin, mix two drops of water with your foundation. For dry skin, add toner. For oily skin, add two drops of witch hazel in foundation.
- Many women restrict their makeup and skin care regimen to their faces. However, the neck, chest and cleavage are as delicate as your face and are equally vulnerable to developing wrinkles, fine lines and other ageing signs and damage caused by the sun's harsh rays. Hence, extend your TLC to your neck and decolletage and do apply serum, face cream, sunscreen and exfoliate beyond your jawline.
