Your skin can tell many things about you,
how healthy you are, your age, what you eat,
or even how much you drink. It’s important
to take care of your skin and keep it clean.
Here are some natural ways to keep your
skin clear:
1. Mint
Mint contains menthol which has cooling
and cleansing properties. You can apply
mint juice to your face every night before
bed. You can also make a paste of mint
leaves by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
and warm water. Apply this paste all over
your body for beautiful and clear skin.
2. Wash your face
It’s important to keep washing your face
with clean water using a natural cleanser.
This will allow your skin to breathe and keep
it germ-free.
3. Lemon
Lemon works great as a natural exfoliate.
Squeeze a lemon into a bowl and pour on a
cotton ball. Wash your face then apply
soaked cotton ball. Let it dry for 10 minutes
and wash off with cold water. You can dilute
with water if your skin is sensitive.
4. Stay calm
Too much stress increases production of oil
that leads to clogged pores and whiteheads.
Try to keep yourself calm and composed. Do
things that keep you cool and relaxed.
5. Avoid soap and hot water
Washing your skin with hot water and soap
can dry out your sebaceous glands which
makes your skin dry and unhealthy. Sebum
production is necessary to keep your skin
clear and healthy. A natural soap can be
used with lukewarm or cold water only.
6. Diet
Diet plays a vital role in keeping your skin
healthy and clear. Include foods rich in water
in your diet. This will enhance blood
circulation and will nourish your skin cells,
eliminating the waste that your skin cells
generate. Choose fresh vegetables, fruit, and
dark green leafy vegetables. The natural
vitamins, minerals, and fiber in these foods
will help optimize blood circulation.
7. Avoid too much make-up
Try to avoid excessive use of make-up
products on daily basis. These products are
chemical-based and may harm your skin,
even causing rashes. You can try natural
products or other products with less
chemicals.
8. Papaya
Papaya contains the enzyme papain and has
amazing antibacterial and wound healing
abilities. It’s also good for removing dead
skin. Regular application of papaya juice can
help remove freckles and brown spots from
sun exposure.
9. Cucumber
Cucumber has hydrating, nourishing, and
astringent properties which is good for your
skin. The pH of cucumbers is same as our
skin which is why they help restore the skin’s
natural acid mantle. Regular consumption of
cucumbers helps prevent pimples,
blackheads, wrinkles, and dry skin.
10. Boiled cabbage water
Boiled cabbage water has amazing
properties that help treat acne. You can
apply freshly squeezed cabbage juice or you
can eat cabbage leaves and juice.
