DIY Moisturiser | Acne prone skin

Image
Rosewater on acne and acne scars works as a wonderful toner. Also you can make two in one acne plus moisturizer with rosewater to apply on acne.   To make Rosewater moisturizer for acne, you will require two main ingredients :  Rose water  Honey  In this we won’t be using store bought rose water. We will make Rosewater at home. If you have bought rosewater of any brand, you would have certainly known the colour of rosewater to be light pink to transparent. But original, completely preservative free and natural rosewater is deep pink to reddish in colour. I was not aware of this until I made my own rosewater at home. So to make Rosewater you will need one cup of rose petals and half litre of purified water. METHOD : Just boil the water in a pan and when it boils completely, turn off the gas. Wash the rose petals to get rid of any dust. Now put them into the boiled water.  Cover the container with a lid and let it cool. Afte...

Yes you heard it right. COLD CREAM for acne. Which is definitely not OIL FREE. And if you have acne, then how can you put something that is not oil free on your skin . You obviously won't. Yeah. These were exactly my thoughts when i first came across the idea of using cold cream to wash my face. I was literally in refutation. But when I did my research, then it all made sense to me. So I thought of giving it a shot thinking my skin couldn't get possibly any worse, right? What if this actually works... So now the question arises which cold cream to use? And will it cleanse your skin like a face wash ? No, it won't. Rather, It will cleanse even better ! Let me tell you how. So when I first started using this routine, I used Nivea cold cream because it was...

If you have landed on this blog,  I assume you are looking for something to benefit your skin in a quick and effective way. If your search has come a long way, you probably have heard about Apple Cider Vinegar for cystic acne some day or the other. Be it in a youtube video or a blog post. When I first heard about ACV, I didn't buy it because the silly me was trying every kind of face wash at that time. So after a long time when I actually gave ACV a shot, it proved to be a magical potion for my skin. Lets know how ? Firstly what is Apple Cider Vinegar ? ACV is nothing but fermented apple juice and fermented foods are great for your health. And a healthy you means healthy skin. ACV has malic acid that helps in defending against virus, bacteria and fungus. It has Ash that balances pH. It has Alpha Hydroxy Acid  (AHA) that removes dead skin cells.  It also helps in preventing wrinkles and lines. BASICALLY IT BALANCES OUR SKIN ! So in my case when I s...
