Thank you for posting these tips 😃 Almond oil is a really good product.

To reduce dark circles I apply baby oil on that area and massage it before going to sleep.

Awesome tips! I have a few questions:

1) I have danfruff problems and I have used a lot of medicated shampoos mostly ones with selenium sulphide and other chemicals that I think were too harsh on my hair. They did help with the dandruff but now I think its back to the same old problem, if not worse. I oil my hair using the Dabur Amla oil every week or two weeks at most. And I think dandruff + stress from school is leading to hair fall too. One thing I have tried on my hair is avacado which most people use for their face. If you leave it on for half an hour to forty five minutes, it makes it really smooth, silky and shiny. But that didn't solve the dandruff. I have tried different shampoos but none of them work except the really chemically strong ones but those are damaging to my hair. So I really have no clue what to do?? Please help?

2) Another problem is the spots left from pimples. I don't get pimples usually but once in a while I do and they go away by themselves but the problem is that they leave behind really dark spots and I'm light-skinned so it shows a lot. Is there a way to prevent this?

3) What is the best way to deal with black heads (preferably a natural way)?

Dandruff I dont know yet but will find out soon..

spots : Rub sliced raw potato on your face and leave it for 10 mins on ur face. Repeat this 3 times and wash your face with lukewarm water.

Important is : Clean your face before using raw potato and use a fat free moisturizer after this.

Facial mask : Grind 5-7 peeled almonds

Mix this with 3-4 tbsp curd (depends on amount of almonds)

Apply on face and leave for 20 minutes.

Rins with lukewarm water.

Its important to clean face well and use a scrub twice a week.

Black heads : Steam your face. Just boil water and let steam come on your face for about 2-5 minutes.

Remove blackheads after this with a blackhead remover.

If u dont have one, remove them with tissue paper or soft cloth.

Just kinda push them out but gently⭐️

I have tried the raw potato slices but I gave up after a while...How long do I have to do it for? I will try the almonds, never done that before. And I gave up on the steaming too. Lol. I need to learn to be patient I think. Thanks a lot!

Well I tried raw potatoes for 3 weeks...I have heard something about apricots but I havent tried that yet. Dermatologist told me that scrubbing 2-3 times a week will remove dead cells thus marks/spots will vanish slowly. ur welcome 😃

Lime juice is another bleach like product. It is really agressive so use it carefully.

Use it in evenings only and wear SPF day after it.

I use it twice a week.

Clean your face and apply lemon juice on it.

Leave it for 20-30 mins and rinse with lukewarm water.

After this wear good moisturizer and day after wear HIGH sun protection otherwise sunburn/damage can be caused.⭐️
