    hi

    For improvig complexion applying on outer skin you could find results

    you have to intake fresh carrot juice every morning this improves

    your skin and makes your skin light day by day,controls pimples,If

    carrot juice taken daily you would find impressive results...Try out

    this one month.

    For applying on skin :First steam your face with lemon

    and then rub ice cubes to face after that apply this pack

    saffron a pinch,butter and sugar(powdered or not powdered)

    apply this pack to your face all over for scrub for 2 minutes and

    leave the pack for about 5 to 7 minutes on your skin,,,,

    It makes your skin brighter.:thumbsup

    Mary Kay,

    i have seen your posts in other threads too.
    You recommend vichy, body shop and marykay products. Can you tell if overnight creams are available in these brands ? how much would it cost ?
    What about neutrogena and olay ? are they good or the above international brands safer and better ?
    please let me know.

    Hi all,

    Now only i raed this thread about dark complexion and modes of overcomin it..All r valuable tips
    I would like to share my personal experience.I read that cucumber +lemon helps us in gettin rid or dark underarms.I applied the paste everyday for 2 months.My mom even asked e..did u go mad???..lol..it dint even work a bit.Then i didn use soap for 2 months,I used green gram flour mixed with milk/curd for 2 months
    it also dint work
    then i used cucumber juice +lemon everyday for 2 months,this also dint work.during these 2 months,i appiled olive oil on face daily..maybe it helped me in gettin a soft skin but increased my pimples too...
    as one of the indusladies said,the homeremedis are a hell lot of time consumin and it ll take 2 months to show one percent improvemment which is quite unsuitable for workin ppl and students.

    and also not all the products works best on all skins.i would like to present a consolidated list of all the home-present fairness enhancing products which are supported by almost all ladies and claim to be fairness enhancers:
    1.besan
    2.green gram flour
    3.lime juice
    4,cucumber
    5.honey
    6.milk
    7.curd
    8.ofcourse our kasturi manjal(turmeric)
    9.olive oil
    10.almond oil
    11.egg white
    12.carrot juice
    13,papaya pulp
    14.multani mitti
    (fullers earth)
    15.potato(tan remover)
    16.tomato

    PLEASE ADD THE THINGS which U FIND COMMON IN ALL THE WOMAN FORUMS FOR FAIRNESS...

    NOW I VE TRIED ALL THE ABOVE OTHER TAHN ALMOND OIL AND PAPAYA..NONE WORKED...

    I READ about roopamrit,kumkumadhi thailam,meladerm(2500rs/product)....i wanna try these but not sure whether i ll get the result or not
    i got fedup and am using vaseline skin lightenin body milk...

    pls be aware tht lemon juice is photosensitive.u ve to wait atleast 4 hrs after u applied it before u go under sun..other it ll reversely react and causes more darkness.

    i ll say wat an ayurvedic practitioner told me,"continuous usage of cucumber juice will cause the formation of very small minute insect like things in ur skin pores..this is due to its seeds"..sorry if teh info is incorrect..he is an ayurvedic speacialist in kerala..i jus told wat he told me..

    even tomato has got acid

    usage of oils on face might cause ugly acne

    fullers earth,all those flours might dry ur skin makin it more rough....


    i m so confused and frustrated..pls donjump over on all these home products seeing a positive attractive comment..they too ve got side effects(too much of anythin is bad)..

    there is definitely a way for improving our complexion.we gotta find out which thing works well for our skin.I think takin a professional help would help..But again it should be trustworthy
    I m thinkin of going to kaya,but also saw bad comments in mouth shut .com
    I ve haerd that night creams and kumkumadhi thailam would help...but really don even know a bit about these night creams..

    i ve putforth my ques and confusions.. i m lookin forward to see the supports and differences over wat i wrote above..

    cheers,
    Joie

    hey joie don't get desperate dear, there are few things which works great for some ppl but do nothing for others, its true that some skins are allergic to some products which are beneficial for others, even my skin is allergic to anything acidic like lemon, curd, tomato etc..I have also tried lots n lots of products in my whole life, visited so many skin specialists but at the end i got solution in ayurveda alone...sometimes using too many cosmetics makes our skin so sensitive that it becomes allergic to everything...this is my personal experience ...

    I just want to tell u that if nothing works for u go to ayurveda..it has solution for every problem..might be ur problem is internal so external application is not helping u anymore..Pls visit a good ayurvedic doctor..i did the same & now i am very satisfied with the results..

    or u can also try kinshukadi tail with haridrakhand that will really help u in rejuvenating your skin from inside out..:thumbsup but if ur problem is chronic do visit an ayurvedic doctor..

    Hi,

    U can use Basin powder (Kadalai mavu) and kasturi manjal powder. Mix both these in an air tight container and use it regularly.

    Tip - You can apply honey and lime early in the morning, leave it to dry for a while and then wash your face with the mix. This will ensure your skin soothens and also looks bright...

    Rgds

    Hi,

    I guess the colour of the skin is not important. What is more important is how healthy and glowing your skin is.

    As long as your skin is shinning it looks great.
