Sun-tan and Pigmentation

Sweeten up your at-home beauty routine with some papaya, pure aloe vera gel and rose water. Papaya is rich with a secret beauty ingredient – papain. This enzyme has skin brightening properties. This mix also works as an exfoliator and helps in removing inactive protein cells and dead skin.

Fight Acne and Pimples

Create a spa-like environment and look well-rested at the same time with a DIY face mask. Add buttermilk to sandalwood powder and then mix it in with some natural aloe vera gel to prevent the formation of acne. Buttermilk is rich in lactic acid which is good for skin. This mask improves skin elasticity, reduces wrinkles and keeps it glowing.

Skin Brightening

Blessed with anti-oxidant and skin-brightening properties, tomato juice has a lot of benefits for the skin. It is rich in Vitamin C and mixing it with organic aloe vera gel makes it an excellent skin brightener. It helps in getting rid of tanning, counters the discoloration of skin and regulates the sebum if you have oily skin. It also gives your skin a glow and keeps dullness at bay.
