Dear uma,

For Almond paste: Soak almonds (3 or 4) in water for min 2 hrs and then grind it to a smooth paste using the same water that u soaked the alomonds, u can through out the remaining water after using. Now mix honey to this paste and apply this to ur face leaving the eye area and wash it off after 15mins. Now apply ur normal moisturizer

Cleanse ur face first and then apply the paste
You can also add oats powder (grind the oats) to this paste..this is very helpful too

For ur eyes u can dip cotton in cucumber juice (grind cucmber to a paste) and place the cotton on ur eyes. This helps for ur dark circles and puffiness

You can do this procedure every week and u vil definately see the difference

Luv
Deepthi
