    For glowing skin
    Taking hot water with lime juice first thing in the morning.
    Taking tomatoes in the morning.
    Before having a bath apply tomato juice all over the body ,wait for 1/2 hr and then have a bath.Your skin would simply glow.
    Mix wheat husk with moong dal flour .Use this powder instead of soap.

    re: For clear & glowing skin

    Wheat husk with moong flour works superb and even papaya paste works very good. i have tried those for many yrs and everyone who saw me after 1yr or so commented on my skin. now i have no time and stopped all these, and dh comments how good my skin was before.

    Thanks for posting the list.

    re: For clear & glowing skin

    you can also try this paste for a cleaner smoother face -

    put a pinch of turmeric powder (haldi) in about 2 table spoons gram flour (besan).
    add required amount of lime juice and make a paste.
    Apply on face and leave until dry.
    Scrub it off and wash.

    For dry skin, a teaspoon of cream (malai) can also be added to the paste.

    Charu..

    re: For clear & glowing skin

    Hi,

    I heard from my aunt who visited China/Mongol region last year, the people there drink a mixture of almonds, pistachios, saffron, fresh or dried rose petals in milk daily for their fair & glowing complexion. Anybody has tried this or knows about it, please do share your views.

    Regards,
    Shakta Kaur

    re: For clear & glowing skin

    Hi latha,

    Moong flour is smooth flour made from moong dall(yellow

    moong).(prepare flour like chana flour) Wheat husk is not the broken

    wheat but it is the dry outer

    covering of wheat (brown colour) u get when u seive the wheat flour.





    bye
