Glycolic Acid
Very good for dark underarms.
This acid is known for it’s ability to help with not only acne, but also a revolutionary product for its many anti aging benefits.5 Reasons why Glycolic Cleanser is an Effective Skin Treatment?
1. Deep Penetration: The reason why a glycolic cleanser is effective skin care treatments are for a variety of different factors. The first factor is that since it belongs to the valuable AHA family it is able to penetrate the skin. This action is what makes it such a beneficial skin treatment. In order to effectively treat the skin a product needs to be able to be absorbed into the skin.
2. Natural: This ingredient is a natural exfoliate and an effective moisturizer, therefore not only does it penetrate the skin, it gets beneath not only the top layer of the skin but below the skin surface where many of the damage skin cells are found. It can help to repair the past damage caused by the sun and other environmental factors to reveal fresher newer skin.
3. Exfoliation: A glycolic cleanser is able to break up the adhesiveness of the skin that binds the dead skin cells together and keeps newer skin from making it’s way to the surface. Therefore, it is a catalyst in the production of regeneration of the skin.
4. Less Side Effects: Since it is derived from nature there are many people who wouldn’t ordinarily be able to use this product. It has been known to have less side effect on some people with sensitive skin. Therefore practically everyone with different skin types can use this product.
5. Skin Toner: A glycolic cleanser prevents the skin from solidifying and prepares the skin to be subjected to other skin treatments.
There are many different types to chose from and many people tend to favor the foaming glycolic cleanser products. These in the beginning of use have been known to produce a tingling sensation on the skin. After your skin gets used to it many people experience the tingling subside. If this continues you can try limiting the use to once a day until your skin becomes used to it.
People with acne have become accustomed to the use of a glycolic cleanser because they are a safer way to try a product with less irritation because there is less of this key ingredient within the product. Therefore, this cleansing form would be ideal for anyone just starting out to try it.
It can also be used in combination with other glycolic skin care products, which makes it an ideal choice for everyone. Avid users of glycolic cleansers state that their skin feels, refreshed, soft and revitalized.

Mix 1 teaspoon of honey with 1 teaspoon of lemon juice and 2 teaspoon of sugar. Apply, scrub and enjoy the softer skin !
Please take care that its always important to keep the pores closed after you clean or scrub your skin . You can use any toner for this purpose depending upon the type of your skin or else you can use rose water which is an excellent natural toner. Dont forget to put on the moisturiser after toning.
I hope you will see good results by doing the above regularly.
Night Creams
- Heat almond oil since it is quiet thick remove it off from flame
add a small amount of rose water and a hint of honey blend together and store in a jar or air tight bottle
apply every night after washing your face but a not too much - For Sensitive Skin:
One Apple
One Cup Olive Oil
One Cup Rose Water
This one is a bit difficult but one of the bests I personally used
Blend apple with skin and olive oil.
put a pan filled with water on stove and keep another small pan on top of the water.
pour the blended mixture in the pan
heat it a bit up till the color slightly changes
add rose and blend well.
Can be kept in refrigerator for max 6days
Dark circles
1. Use very little almond oil and massage it with your index finger around your eyes in 8 shape and then in circles. Do this every night before you sleep. This will also help you to have a good sleep. It is most important is to sleep well for healthy eyes
2. get into the habbit of blinking as frequently as possible. this will retain the moisture of your eyes...

Ten Budget Friendly Beauty Tips
1.Stand dried-up mascara in a glass of warm water to bring it back to life.
2.A cheap way to boost the shine of dark hair is to rinse it with diluted vinegar. Blonde hair benefits from lemon juice. Both acts by sealing down the outer cuticles of the hair, helping your hair reflect the light more effectively.
3.Swap commercial face scrubs for a handful of oatmeal massaged directly onto your skin – it works really well.
4.Turn lipstick into lip gloss with a coat of lip balm after applying color.
5.Eye shadow doubles up as eyeliner, if applied with a cotton bud (swab). Dampen the end of the bud (swab) first for a more dramatic effect.
6.A drop of live oil rubbed nightly into your nails will help them grow long and strong and is cheaper than shop-bought manicure oils.
7.Make powder eye shadows last longer and stay crease-free by dusting eyelids with translucent powder first. It'll absorb the oils from your skin, and keep your make-up looking fresh.
8.To dry nail polish in a hurry, spray nails with PAM Oil Spray. (note: this really does work).
9.Toner/Astringent—Use witch hazel instead. No need to dilute—use full strength. You can also rinse with a splash of Apple Cider Vinegar after cleansing—it balances out the ph of your skin.
10.Add a few drops of your favorite eaude toilette to some olive oil, and use as scented bath oil as a cheap treats. Olive oil can also be added to bath water for a skin softener.
