4 Skin Problems And Home Remedies To Tackle Them

An antioxidant-packed cocoa mask replenishes moisture and gives skin a restored, youthful appearance. Hydration is the most important skin saver at this stage!

What to do:

Combine 1 tablespoon cocoa powder, 1 tablespoon sour cream, 1 tablespoon honey, and one egg white. Apply to face and let dry before rinsing. The powerful ingredients make this a multi-tasking wonder-cream: Sour cream is a form of lactic acid that hydrates as it gently exfoliates; honey boosts hydration while the protein in the egg white tightens and firms skin.

 2. For Rough hands

Warm Milk hand soak works to gently soften and nourish rough hands

What to do:

Heat 2 to 3 cups whole milk (enough to completely submerge both hands) in the microwave until it’s warm. Pour into a bowl and let hands soak for 5 to 10 minutes, allowing the fat from the milk to hydrate, and vitamins A and E to nourish dry skin. Do this as often as required.

3. For Wrinkles & Other Signs of Aging

What to do:

Blend ½ of a fresh pawpaw (remove the seeds and dice), 1 tablespoon plain yogurt, 1 tablespoon white tea (brewed and cooled), 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, and one egg white in a food processor (or use a fork) until it forms a paste. Apply to face and neck; relax for 20 to 30 minutes before rinsing with lukewarm water.

Pawpaw works as a natural exfoliator; the egg whites are high in protein and help rebuild skin and tighten pores.
