These are all beauty tips you can do at home with most items you have around the house anyhow. You can pay a fortune for skin care but why not try a couple of these home made beauty tips and see if you don't see a difference; they may surprise you and cost you nothing!

Dry Skin: Cook a small bowl of oatmeal, add 2 teaspoons of honey and mix well. Apply to face and leave on for about 5 minutes. Rinse off  completely and pat dry. This is a wonderful cleaner and moisturizer.

 

Wrinkles: These are several things you can do to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and they do work. Take a green seedless grape, cut it in half and apply to the wrinkles and leave on for 15/20 minutes letting it naturally dry. Rinse off with warm water and the wrinkles will be gone or disminished! Same thing applies for using a core of a pineapple following the same technique. 

 

To prevent wrinkles, apply castor oil after you have washed your face at night. Of course, always watch your diet eating healthy foods with lots of fruits and vegetables. What we eat and drink does take a toll on how we look!

 

Dark Circles Under The Eyes: Slice raw cucumbers or potatoes and laying flat apply to the eyes for 15 minutes and your dark circles will be gone. Most of us don't have 15 minutes so try mixing an equal amount of lemon and tomato juice and applying twice daily. Massage almond oil at night around the eyes at bedtime and see a difference in 2 weeks.

 

Baggy Eyes: Use Preperation H. It really does work. Just apply a dab under the eyes and it will shrink those bags.

 

Facial Masks For Smoother Skin and Less Wrinkles: Banana mask helps with wrinkles. Just mash about a 1/4 of a banana until smooth, apply to face for about 15/20 minutes. Rinse with warm water and then cold to close the pores.

 

Dry Skin Mask: Use 1 Tsp of butter and 1 Tsp of water. Apply to face for about 15 minutes and rinse with COLD water.

 

Oatmeal Mask: Mix 2 Tsp of oatmeal and 1 Tsp of baking soda and add enough water to make a paste. Apply to skin and leave on for 15 minutes and wash off to leave your face clean and smooth.

 

Facial Mask For Aging Skin: Take 3 Tsp of sugar and dissolve it in 4 Tsp of warm water and apply to the whole face. This will help soften aging lines.

 

Facial Mask For All Types: Take 2 egg yolks, 2 tablespoons of honey and 3 drops of almond oil and blend them all together well. Apply to the face and leave on for 15/20 minutes and rinse off.

 

Soothing Spa Treatment Without The Upscale Price: Good Old Epson Salt. Just add 2 cups to your bath water along with your favorite aroma and soak for 12 minutes 3 times a week. Works as well as those fancy spa places.

 

Protein Hair Treatment: Take 1 ounce soy sauce and 1 cup warm water and mix together. Apply to hair AFTER you have shampooed, comb thru and leave on for about 15 minutes then rinse out.

 

Moisturizer Hair Treatment: Take any mayo and apply to your hair completely. Cover with an shower cap or plastic and leave on for about 15/20 minutes. Wash hair completely and your hair will look so great. There isn't any residue just great looking hair.

 

Hair Lightener: Just like you buy in the store. Just comb Hydrogen peroxide thru your hair and go outside into the sun. Looks like you paid a fortune to have it done and it costs nothing. Just be careful not to get this into your eyes.

 

Natural Hair Removal: Mix 1 egg white, with sugar and corn flour until it is a paste. Apply the paste to your face and when it dries, gently peal it off. Use 3/4 times weekly until the hair is completely gone.

 

Skin Lightener: Take pineapple and coconut milk and combine an equal amount. Has to be natural products, not the ready to use. Apply to face with cotton balls and let dry naturally and leave on for 20 minutes and then rinse with warm water and pat dry.

 

Dry and Flaky Arms and Legs: Mix 6 teaspoons of petroleum jelly, 2 teaspoons of glycerin and 2 teaspoons of lemon juice. Apply this 2 times a week before bedtime and you'll see a difference quickly.

 

Invigorating Body Scrub: Brew a pot of coffee. It's important you use the grinds within 20 minutes! Take 5 Tablespoons of the coffee grounds and mix in 2 tablespoons of salt and mix together. Scrub mixture over entire body in the shower and then wash and usual. Will leave your skin toned and mositurized.

 

Elbow Bleach: Mix 1/2 lemon squeezed along with 1/2 cup of mint water. Apply to elbows and leave on. Repeat 3/4 times until the elbows are there natural color again.

 

Age Spots: Just cut a lemon wedge and apply to the age spot every day until the spot disappears.

 

Cold Sores: Apply Pepto Bismo when you first know your getting one and guess what, you won't.

 

Even before the prices of everything went up, I have used these home ideas. Give them a try and you might even be pleasantly surprised and save some money.
