Being a south Indian, Ayurvedic products have not been unknown to me. I have been accustomed to using exotic herbs and oils from childhood. The role of Ayurveda in beauty has not been known enough in my opinion. One product that deserves a lot of appreciation is Kumkumadi Thailam. This product has been there from a long time but somehow did not get enough of importance that it truly deserves.
However in recent times, certain luxury brands have revived it and popularized it and everyone has been raving about it since then. Today however I am introducing you to a product that is the authentic kumkumadi thailam!
I recently hauled some skin care products from Ethicare Remedies, which is one of the very trusted brands suggested by dermatologists. I picked the products from their ‘skin lightening’ range this time. Though I’m not someone who’s into skin lightening, I wanted these so badly as I want to get rid of my leftover chickenpox marks as fast as possible! They are already gone by 90% but I want to get rid of them all to get back my clear skin!
I also want to vanish my uneven-even tan caused due to swimming for a long time in chlorinated water under the sun! (At Kishkinta, Chennai. Never going there again!) I’ve already started using a couple of products from my haul and they are reacting good. Today, I’m sharing my haul and photos with you!
Hope everyone is doing great. So here I am back with another DIY post. This post is about homemade face packs to treat uneven or patchy skin tone. All woman desires for long lustrous hair and flawless radiant complexion. But often we notice few patches on our skin or sun spots, skin redness etc. Our skin tone becomes patchy or uneven. Skin darkening is very embarrassing.
We do not feel beautiful. And it makes us look unhealthy and tired. It also gets difficult to apply make up on our skin if the complexion is uneven. Various factors like busy lifestyle, pollution, unhealthy habits, ageing, hormonal changes, long exposure to sun and stress lead to skin darkening. While extreme cases need to be taken care by medication and cosmetic treatment, moderate skin darkening can be cured by few home remedies.
Here I am going to share four homemade face packs that will help you to get back your even skin tone.
Take 3 tbsp of gram flour in a small bowl and add 1 tsp of baking soda in it. Now mix these two by adding enough milk and make it a paste. Apply on your face and wait till it becomes dry. Rinse off with cold water. This face pack is best suitable for normal and oily skin. Use three times a week for best results.
Benefits : This face pack is very effective in dealing with sun tanned skin, skin pigmentation and brown patches. It contains gram flour which scrubs off the dead skin cells and make skin smoother and firmer. The lactic acid present in milk helps to enhance skin complexion and make skin radiant.
