Weird beauty tips I found on the web...

-Rubbing Pepto-Bismal® on your skin is a better facial than peel off masks.

-To make your own facial mask, mix a handful of 100% all-natural kitty litter with a 1/2 cup water and apply a facemask.

-The best leave-in conditioner for your hair is nothing other than laundry room fabric softener. It's very strong, so be sure to dilute it. Suggestions: 1 cup water, 1/2 cup fabric softener.

-Raw potato slices contain potassium to take away dark circles under the eye.

-Right from the can, Crisco is a big secret among beautiful women. Use it to remove makeup and as a highly effective moisturizer. Hospitals even use it to treat psoriasis and eczema.

(Putting kitty litter on my face would creep me out...used or not. lol)

so weird....is it true...or it just a jokes?

[TXbeauty]

I got it from this site :http://www.thefunplace.com/house/tips/beauty.html .

Some of them I've heard before, like using a matchbook when you don't have an emery board nearby. But the Pink Stuff for a facial peel and the kitty litter thing? That just struck me as really, really weird. LOL

Anyone else heard of anything like that?

Yep, I have heard of all of them except for the fabric softener one, which I personally don't think is right. It's not made for hair, it's made for fabric. Two COMPLETELY different things. I think it may be to harsh on the hair? I duno though, just a thought:P

This one is weird but it works....cause I do this sometimes.....it's actually an ancient remedy.......it's urine therapy.....yucks,I know(actually I dont wanna write about this....becoz I think u all will think that Im weird, but its OK...becoz this is the truth).....

put your morning urine to your face or to any part that need helps, let it dry then wash it....this really effective for pimple...n for allergic reactions to every part of skin....

it is true n Im the living evidence......once I get a allergic reaction on my upper lid...at first I put a corticosteroid creme for about a weeks....n the rash was still there.....then I got tired of it so I try to put my morning urine....in 2 days I could see the effect.....

also I've heard from a friend....she said that her friend always put her morning urine to her face everyday before she wash her face.....n her face is so smooth with no pimple n almost invisible pore....

Yeah, the kitty litter thing is made from Fullers Earth, It's a really absorbent material, which is why it's great for absorbing excess oils on the skin.

Yes, I've heard of this remedy before as well. I haven't tried it myself, yet the stats speak for themselves.

I've heard of this too except with a really different twist...you drink your urine.... Madonna said she did it and hey, urine is sterile but i don't know if i would try it...

[rinda]

Actually I did that too....but I never do that again during the past 6 months or more than that I guess....I usually forgot to drink it in the morning....n then I became too lazy to do that again....actually it's very good.....I have many allergic n asthma, my mom told me to do this therapy.....n I think I wanna do that again.....becoz if I drink that I feel not so itchy when I eat stuff that Im not supposoe to eat n I hardly get asthma attack....n it helps to smooth my skin....but I dont know....It takes quite a long time to get to use to it again....since I never drink it again for a long period.......it's kinda torturing things.....

[TXbeauty]

I don't know what to say to that...I really don't. LOL

I'm flabbergasted. Seriously. I've heard of people urinating on another person for medicinal purposes, but...never drinking it. I guess its because I'm kinda sheltered.
