Skin Fixes Hiding In Your Kitchen And Garden

Expensive products loaded with toxic chemicals-some of which you may not have even heard of-might sometimes do more harm to your skin than good. These toxic ingredients are often hidden behind the facade of products and brands that claim to be all natural. But if you truly want to go the natural way, why spend an extravagant sum on it? Neeharika Nene lists ten of the easiest, most efficient, and unconditionally natural skincare ingredients you NEED to add to your regime.

COCONUT OIL

Coconut oil is another classic that you can never go wrong with. It is mostly known to be beneficial for your hair, but it also happens to be an essential ingredient to add to your skincare routine. Coconut oil works as a cleanser by breaking up the dirt on your face. It is also effective as a natural makeup remover that does not cause any unnecessary damage to your face. You can even use coconut oil to make your own, all-natural homemade lip gloss to keep your lips moisturised, hydrated, and beautiful all at the same time.

ROSE WATER

  Nowadays, many skincare products that you might stumble upon while shopping claim to have rose water in them among others. However, any ingredient is always best used in its natural form, and the same goes for this one. Adding rose water to your beauty regime will never go to waste - one, because it is an extremely versatile ingredient, and two, because it can be used on any skin type! It has anti-ageing, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties to name a few. It also helps balance the pH level of your skin.

TURMERIC

  Turmeric had claimed its place in the earliest of skincare guides, not just in India, but all around the world. It is already known to possess almost magical healing properties, but many people are not aware of its benefits with regards to skincare. Turmeric gives your skin the natural, healthy glow that it needs without the use of harmful chemicals or expensive products. It serves as an ideal alternative, considering the fact that it is one of the most readily available kitchen ingredients. Try this at home in the form of a face mask, mixed with honey and Greek yoghurt.

Avocado

  Avocados happen to be an excellent source of vitamins, minerals, and anti-ageing antioxidants. Even just consuming them regularly can help your skin become healthier. But there is also an array of different skincare products that you can make at home, using avocados. Avocado face masks have become increasingly popular today. You can even mix it in with some coconut oil and make an effective moisturiser. Avocado facial scrubs are great cleansers for your skin. All in all, this ingredient is versatile and effective in various different forms.
