Uses of Lemon Juice in Our Skin Care

Uses of Lemon Juice in Our Skin Care:

Hi Friends, Today's my post is all about using Lemon in our skin care routine. 
We all are aware of adding lemon juice in so many of our home made face packs. So, today lets see in little more detail the uses and benefits of Lemon, so that we can use this fantastic ingredient more and more and in a proper way in our skin care regime, to get its maximum benefit.


How Lemon Can Be Used in Our Skin Care:
  • Lemon has anti bacterial and anti fungal properties, which enables lemon to treat acne and acne scars. Applying lemon juice on the acne scars help to fade those scars away.
  • Lemon is a citrus fruit which is rich in vitamin C and other fruity acids, which is very good in improving texture and beauty of skin.
  • Natural acidic acid present in lemon is not harmful for skin and helps to remove dead cells, making skin glow and become softer.
  • Lemon has citrus acids, which also helps in bleaching skin. Regular use of lemon juice helps to lighten complexion since it acts as a bleaching agent.
  •  Lemon juice is also said to remove black heads.
  • Applying lemon juice or rubbing lemon slices on the elbows helps to reduce the darkness of the elbows. Same can be done for dark knees also.
  • Rubbing lemon slices regularly on underarms helps to reduce dark underarms too.
  • Vitamin C in lemon helps to reduce wrinkles.
  • Lemon juice can be used in making your own face packs, scrubs, exfoliate, skin moisturizer,skin toner and what not. 
  • Lemon juice even outs the skin tone.
  • Adding curd to the lemon juice can be a very nice lightening as well as moisturizing mask to try on. 
 Few Important Points:
  • Lemon Juice can be little drying for the dry skin people since it contains citric acid, so always dilute lemon juice with little water or according to the face pack you are making. Do not forget to moisturize your skin nicely after using it. Honey can be added to add hydration to the packs.
  • Sensitive skin people should be careful not to over use it. Since the natural acids present in the lemon juice are quite strong, so never forget to dilute it and do not use it more than 2-3 times a week.
  • Try to avoid sun exposure just after the use of lemon juice. Wait for an hour or so before going out in sun and do not forget to apply your sunscreen nicely.
  • Be careful if you have open cuts or wounds, it can really tingle them bad.
So, friends that was a brief information about lemon juice and its benefits and the precautions which should be take while to use it.

Having all said, we cannot expect a miracle result in one day after all...If we keep using natural products like lemon for our skin care religiously, we will see benefits for sure.

Hope this article was useful....
Will be doing loads of DIYs with lemon juice soon...
Happy Reading & Keep Glowing With Lemon!!

My Review:Lotus Herbals Matte Gel Safe Sun SunBlock: Best Sunscreen for Oily Skin

My Review:Lotus Herbals Matte Gel Safe Sun Sun Block: Best Sunscreen for Oily Skin:

Hi Friends, today's article is in kind of continuation of my earlier post( Best sunscreen for oily skin).
After trying out so many sun screens i have zeroed in two sun screens, which are super good for oily skin. It does not make skin greasy, oily or shiny at all.

Both of the products are from Lotus Herbals:
 1. Lotus 3 in 1 Matte Look Daily sunblock (as reviewed in my earlier post)
2. Lotus UV Screen Matte GEL sunblock


About the Products in Detail:

 The best part of both the products, which make them very very suitable for oily or combination skin is their Matte Finish. After their application, within 2-3 minutes they get totally absorbed into the skin with 100% matte finish. No oiliness or shine or  white ghostly layer on finish. excellent finish.

Major Difference: The major difference between the two is: One is clear gel consistency while the other one has little coverage.
3 in 1 Matte Look has little bit of coverage in it which is good for daily use. You can use it just like that also when you are not applying any makeup or at home just chilling...Just apply this and you are done, it will give you little bit of coverage making skin little even tone as well as providing the required skin protection. It can be used before makeup as well.

Lotus Matte gel on the other hand is a clear Gel consistency, no coverage. This product is also awesome, it gets absorbs into the skin like magic. No oil or greasiness. Totally worth the money. You can use it before applying your makeup since it is transparent gel, gets 100% absorbed, non greasy, very comfortable on skin. It has SPF 50. Retails for INR 295 for 50g of product.


So, both the product are so worth the money. All skin type people can use it. When i said earlier good for oily skin people does not mean it is drying and dry skin cannot use it. Dry skin people can also totally use it and it will work great for them as well. But yes bonus points for oily ones since it is really difficult to find good sunscreen for oily skin, which do not make their skin oily.

I really hope this post for useful for you readers. Do not forget to comment and follow if you enjoyed reading this.
Happy Reading!

My Review:Lotus Herbals 3-in-1 Matte Look Daily Sunblock: Best Sunscreen for Oily Skin

My Review:Lotus Herbals 3-in-1 Matte Look Daily Sunblock: Best Sunscreen for Oily Skin:

  •  Price is not too high not too low also. Rs 235 for 50g of product
  •  Totally non greasy. Gets easily absorbed into the skin

·        
      The Review:


     Before using this product i was a firm believer of the fact that sunscreen are not meant to be for the oily skin. I tried dozens of sunscreen before this one and all of them made my face so greasy that i actually had to remove it. They all use to make my skin more oily, greasy and  appear even more dark. So i decided that since i have oily skin i should not use sunscreen on to my face and use in only on arms, neck, legs etc


     Then i came across this Lotus 3 in 1 daily sunscreen and i was totally surprised the way it suited my skin. This product is so good , it is just perfect. It provides u all the things u want in your sunscreen.

I    It did not made my skin more oily, it gives little bit of coverage too which is great for daily wear. It is totally mattifying.  Very suitable for college going girls, with sunscreen they can have a bit coverage too ;). I often use it as a base and then apply my foundation, that way also it works great for me.  My skin looks even tone after applying this. 
      Now i just cannot do without it, it has to be there with me.

I    would like to recommend this product to everyone. Truly a 10/10. It is also pretty long lasting. Don’t have to re-apply it very frequently but of course that depends on where u r wearing it (indoors or outdoors). 


     Definitely one of my favorites.

DIY: Beat the Skin Tan this summer....(With Home Made Facepack)

DIY: Beat the Skin Tan this summer....

Hi Friends, i am back with yet another DIY.
My biggest problem in summers is getting tanned. The moment i step out i get this 'hard to remove' tan on my legs, arms, face and neck. Because of this slowly slowly my complexion was getting dark and dull. Moreover i have read that too much of sun exposure and getting tanned leads to pre age wrinkles in skin, which i definitely dont want. 

So, here is a very easy home made face pack\ beauty remedy, which helps to get rid of sun tan.
I have been using it 2 times a week on my affected areas and  it has actually reduced sun tan from my skin.

 So, here is it: You will needing two ingredients:
1. Curd\Yogurt
2. Turmeric powder


  
How to make this Pack:

 Take 2 tablespoons of curd. Mix it well with around 1.5 pinch of turmeric powder. Pack is ready!
Just make sure you do not add too much of turmeric powder, otherwise after the pack your face will end up looking all yellow. 
Leave it around 15-20 mins and wash it off with normal water.
I generally use it 2 times a week before going for bath, so that if sometimes i get yellow color, it gets removed during bath.

How do these two things work in removing Sun Tan from skin:

 Turmeric  is know for its anti bacterial, anti oxidant properties. It helps in curing wounds, burns and infections. Turmeric is know for its healing power. It helps in reducing skin pigmentation and darkness due to sun tan.
Curd or Yogurt contains lactic acid. It has anti fungal properties so helps in reducing acne. Curd has been used from ages to remove pigmentation and tan from the skin. Curd can work wonders in making skin soft and radiant by removing its darkness. It also helps to calm and cool down the skin in summers.

 So, that was the easy and instant home made face pack, which you can try to remove the tan this summer. All you need to do is get into the kitchen to get these and get started. 
Happy Reading!
