Just go out into your garden or raid your kitchen shelves for perfect skin, the envy of all.

Skin Care

• The best remedy for blackheads – tomato pulp works by tauting up the skin.
Pat cool cucumber juice all over your face and let dry to diminish the appearance of wrinkles.
• Restore the acidity balance of your skin by slathering on a mask of plain yoghurt. Leave on for 15-minutes, rinsing off with cold water.

Body Care

• Milk in your bath water will soften the skin, while adding oatmeal to it will get rid of dry and itchy skin.
Rub lemon peel on elbows and knees to get rid of dark skin.
• Slough your skin woes away by mixing two cups of raw sugar in16 ounces of lotion or cold cream for the most fabulously affordable sugar body scrub. A great exfoliant, your skin will feel rejuvenated and silky smooth.

Hair Care

• Make a final rinse of half a cup of lemon juice mixed with one quart cold water to prevent dandruff.
