All-time Favourite Homemade Beauty Recipes?

[fifteenlove]

There's too many to choose from! I was just curious to know what your favourite homemade beauty recipes are, maybe ones you swear by? For masks, scrubs, lip balms, anything!

I've also heard tomato paste makes a good facial mask? Has anyone tried this one?

Thanks in advance!

my favorite is:
Olive oil hand and foot scrub.
2 parts olive oil to 1 part sugar or salt.
It leaves hand feeling sooooo soft!

I really like the good old cucumbers. Two slices over the eyes.

Also if my hair gets dry some olive oil, not to much, at night will do the trick to bring it back.

orange peel with milk has to be my favourite.

Hello.
I've heard of that mask: orange peel with milk. If I'm not wrong it whitens the skin a little. But I don't understand how you put it all together (orange peel+milk) and then apply it to the face. Could you please tell me ?
Thank you.

I have that recipe on 1 of the posts here but i cant seem to find it....

All you have to do is to take some orange peel lay it out in teh sun to dry it, or you can put it on a radiator. Once they have dried place them in a grinder and powder it. Then add the powder to the milk and make a paste. Apply the past to you face and neck for approx 15 mins.

This is a pretty good recipe and gives a realy nice glow.

P.S- If you find putting on this mask regualrly, time consuming, then just take a slice of lemon and rub it over your face and neck, keep it on overnight and wash off in the morning, this really helps to whiten the skin and to get rid of acne scars

Hello.
Thank you ultimate princess .

A homemade recipe I did and really enjoyed was this:
- 4 tablespoons of oatmeal
- 2 tablespoons of honey
- just a little of carrot juice and sweet almond oil

Mix everything in a bowl and apply it to face and neck. It left my skin really soft .

The best recipe I have & do often is plain organic yogurt & Chanti wine.
I make up a batch with an 8 oz container of the yogurt & 1/4 Cup of wine.
I use a pastry brush & spread it on my face & neck, leaving it on for about 15 minutes. Keep the rest in the fridge. I swear my pores are smaller & my complexion is more even.
