    acne remedy:
    1.e most important thing to do if you suffer from Acne is to drink at least four pints of water every day. Drinking a lot of water is very beneficial to your skin. Including fresh fruit and leafy green vegetables in your daily diet will also bring about a marked improvement in the quality of your complexion.
    2.fore bathing, apply a mixture of tomato pulp – real tomota pulp, not packaged one – honey and rose-water to your face and keep for twenty minutes before washing off.
    3. night, before going to bed, apply a mix of cream, glycerine, and lemon juice to your face and again keep it on for a short while before washing.

I wanna come to India so bad!

    Hi Savatree

    Here are my remedies for good skin and hair:

    1. Make a paste of Chick-pea Flour (Besan), Honey, Turmeric, Milk... apply on face. Scrub off and wash off when half dried.

    2. Put a few drops of Lemon Juice In Honey, apply on face and leave it on for 20-25 minutes... the wash off.

    3. Take a slice of Tomato and rub it on your face ... then leave the juice on for 10-15 minutes then wash off.

    4. For Hair, mix Almond Oil, Olive Oil and coconut oil Or MIX Castor Oil, Gingelly Oil and Coconut oil and apply on your scalp leave it for and hour or so then wash with a mild Shampoo or Shikakai Powder or Reetha Powder (available in Indian Stores, promotes hair growth).

    5. Also for dandruff, mix little bit of vinegar in water and after shampooing just rinse it through your hair... it helps in dandruff.

    6. Apply Henna to your hair and scalp, it'll help control hairfall...

    7. Eat Amla (Embilica Officinalis), it promotes hair growth.

    8. Apply Curd mixed with lemon juice on your hair... after 30 minutes wash off.

    Follow these regularly and you will see a difference in a month or two. for anything to work Committment is really important

    Take care
    ~Abha
