Easy & Simple DIY Skincare Treatments
Anti-aging Cocoa Face Mask- An antioxidant-packed cocoa mask helps in replenishing moisture and gives the skin a youthful and restored look.
As the skin starts aging, the moisture barrier starts to break down which leads to dry skin and the immunity layer of the skin starts weakening.
At this stage, hydration is the most important thing!
For making this DIY skincare product, you need to combine 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder, 1 tablespoon of sour cream, 1 tablespoon of honey, and an egg white.
Apply this mixture to your face and allow it to dry before washing.
The powerful ingredients used in this product make it a multi-tasking cream.
Sour cream is a great source of lactic acid that hydrates as it exfoliates, honey boosts hydration whereas the protein in the egg white makes the skin firm.
Milk hand soak for soft hands- If your hands are tired and hard after a long day’s work, then this nourishing hand cream is for you!
To prepare this, you will need just 2 to 3 cups of whole milk. Heat it in the microwave till it is warm.
Pour it into a bowl and allow the hands to soak for 5 to 10 minutes letting the fat from the milk hydrate and Vitamins E and A nourish the dry skin.
Oat Face Mask- Regulate the pH balance of your skin with alpha-hydroxy acids in apple cider.
Ground oats are known for removing excess oil and dirt build-up. The oats consist of saponins, a powerful cleaner that works wonders for your skin.
Combine 3 teaspoons of ground oats and 1/4 teaspoon of apple cider in a bowl till you get a paste consistency.
Then, add 1/4 tablespoon of lime juice along with 1/2 tablespoon of brown sugar. Mix it until the mixture gets an even consistency.
Next, apply this mixture to the freshly cleaned skin and allow it to sit for 5 to 10 minutes, letting the ingredients penetrate deep inside the skin.
Rub in a circular motion to exfoliate and improve the blood flow. Wash off with warm water and pat dry using a towel.
Blueberry Face Mask for Skin Brightening- Now you can detox your face with a soothing blueberry mask.
The antioxidants in Blueberries protect against free radicals and helps in repairing skin damage while Vitamin C from the lemon helps in brightening the skin.
For making this recipe, mix 1 tablespoon of crushed ripe Blueberries, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of cucumber juice, 2 tablespoons of baking soda with 2 tablespoons of water.
Spread this mixture all over your face. Leave it for 15 to 20 minutes. Gently wash your face using warm water.
Foot care with Exfoliating baking soda- Another DIY skincare treatment you can easily prepare at home is a simple foot soak of water and baking soda.
Baking soda is good for treating calluses as it is abrasive and helps in loosening the dead skin.
For preparing this recipe, add a ratio of 1/2 cup baking soda for each gallon of warm water in a huge tub and mix it till the powder dissolves.
Soak your feet for nearly 30 minutes.
Wash away the baking soda and pat dry your feet before you apply your foot cream and cover your feet with a pair of cotton socks.
Use sugar for glowing skin- Sugar makes a great exfoliating scrub and it is quite easy to make your own.
What do you need to do?
Mix one part of coconut or olive oil with two parts of sugar.
If you want, you can even add a few drops of fresh-smelling essential oil.
You can even make a therapeutic sugar scrub by combing ground oats with honey for extra calmness and hydration.
Apply egg white on clean pores- This is one of the popular DIY skin treatments for clearing skin pores.
A mix of yogurt and egg white is best for clearing your skin pores. The lactic acid present in yogurt loosens the gunk in your skin pores and the egg whites dry it.
On the other hand, an Avocado adds moisture and is best for fighting inflammation.
You can prepare a homemade clear skin face mask by mixing an egg white with a tablespoon of yogurt and half an avocado.
Leave this mixture on your face for at least 10 minutes and then wash it off.
Aloe vera for keeping your skin healthy and strong- Aloe vera has healing properties and may enhance cell growth.
It also soothes and moisturizes the skin without clogging the skin pores.
Applying aloe vera after you wash your face every day will give your skin a healthy glow.
Some people are allergic to aloe vera.
So, it is always better to test it before applying it to your face. If there is no allergic reaction in 24 hours, you can go ahead.
Apply coconut oil before going to sleep at night- This is another one on the list of several DIY skincare treatments.
Coconut oil becomes solid when kept at room temperature. So, use it as a moisturizing cream at night.
For chapped hands and heels, apply this oil, and then wear thick socks.
Reduce your Shower time- This DIY skincare treatment is something that many people ignore.
Heat and steam can open skin pores and help you get rid of toxins.
But pouring hot water on your skin for more than a few minutes can take away all the oil from your skin.
This makes the skin dull and dry. Try to reduce your skin’s exposure to hot water as much as possible.
You can also consider cooling the temperature in the latter part of your bath to enhance blood circulation, which may give your face a more toned appearance.
I am sure many of you will be surprised to know that this is good for enhancing the immune system.
Paying attention to your skin is a type of self-care that can pay off in skin that glows.
There are times when conditions like nutritional deficiencies, stress, and hormonal imbalances can damage your skin.
Try these DIY skincare treatments and nothing can stop you from having glowing skin.
