Diaper rash cream to get rid of blemishes
Big, irritating blemishes crop up anytime and treating them can get very frustrating. Fret not! Here’s a quick way to get rid of the redness, swelling and any pain associated with the nasty pimples. All you need to do is dab some diaper rash cream to the affected area and the pimple will practically shrink before your eyes.
Facial oil to treat oily skin
Tackling oily skin is no easy feat. But, did you know that facial oil can be a solution to this? Yes, one of the best ways to hydrate oily skin is by using facial oils. If you apply facial oils, your skin will realize that it does not need to over-produce oil on its own. This will balance out the oil production, leaving you with a non-greasy look.
Dandruff shampoo is the answer to dry, flaky skin
This may sound surprising, but it actually works. If you’re experiencing extra dryness and flakiness, then grab a dandruff shampoo to treat your skin. Once or twice a month, swap your cleanser with a dandruff shampoo to balance the yeast levels on your face, which could be the reason for flaky skin.
Sensitive skin hack
Take a washcloth and soak it in milk and ice cubes. Next, wring it out and place it on your face for about 10-15 minutes. Ensure that your face is cleaned out before covering it with the washcloth. The pH level in the milk, the cold temperature derived from the ice cubes and the protein will make your skin feel new and fresh within minutes.
