Some Skin Care Tips and Advice
- Always wash your hands clean first. This will prevent the transfer of bacteria to your face.
- Start with your hairline first, as hairstyling products attract dirt, and then sweep cleanser over face and lips and down the neck to beyond where you apply foundation.
- After you've applied your cleanser, gently massage it in with the balls of your fingers and leave it on for a minute or so to allow make-up to melt away. Then use a soft cotton ball to wipe away dirt, pollution, and cosmetic build-up without tugging at the skin.
- Then wash face clean with water and a good quality face wash so that all traces of dirt is gone and skin becomes perfectly clean.
Making skin tonic at home is simple and easy. All you require is rosewater and witch-hazel. Rosewater is one of the best-known skin tonics and is easily available. Witch-hazel is available at a chemist or homeopathy shop. Toners vary according to skin types:
For normal skin
Mix ¾ cup rosewater with ¼ cup witch-hazel and store in a jar.
For very greasy skin
Mix equal quantities of rosewater and witch-hazel and store in a jar.
For dry skin
Mix ¾ cup rosewater, ¼ cup witch-hazel and ½ teaspoon glycerin or honey and store in a jar.
