Yoghurt sugar and honey scrub
How to :
Mix equal quantities of yogurt, sugar and honey. Create a thick paste and use it on your face as a scrub. Allow it to stay on for a few minutes and then wash off; you will notice that it serves as the best moisturiser for dry skin. (You can even add some ground coffee beans to enhance the efficiency of this scrub.)
How it works:
Dry skin may feel rough but it is actually super sensitive and needs a gentle moisturising scrub that removes dead cells without damaging the skin. While yogurt with its lactic acid exfoliates skin, sugar rubs off the flakes and honey hydrates your skin; all working together to keep your dry skin exfoliated.
Milk, rose water and lemon juice
How to :
Mix a few drops of rose water, lemon juice and 4 tablespoons of milk in a bowl. Apply the solution all over your body. Leave it on for about 10 minutes and then wash off with cold water.
How it works:
Milk is the best known natural remedy for dry skin. It contains lactic acid and other components that stimulate oil glands which in turn control acne, prevent ageing, make skin more radiant, heal wounds and soften and nourish the skin all at once.
Egg
How to :
Mix an egg's yolk with a teaspoon each of olive and castor oil, orange juice, lime juice and rose water. Apply this mixture every morning for 10 minutes and rinse it off.
How it works:
Eggs provide a punch of protein which can make your skin come alive, orange juice with its vitamin C content helps you get rid of blemishes while honey, olive oil, and castor oil are all known to be potent moisturising agents.
