At times, we all have been through rough or dry skin which makes our face look a bit dull. Like in winter, my skin tends to dry out, giving a dull, worn-out effect. So, today I'm listing five things, which work wonders in making your skin become soft and smooth.
1) Aloe vera- Aloe Vera works like magic for me! Firstly, it's natural, so you don't have to worry about side-effects(unless you have allergies), and secondly, you can use it for any skin problem! Be it Acne, Pimple, scratches, roughness, dryness, Aloe Vera gel seems to heal all of this. I always use Aloe Vera gel too, for pimple problems.
2) Cucumber- Yes, I know cucumber is good for the eyes, but cucumber is also good for your skin. It works as a good cooling agent in hot summer days. And just like Aloe, no side effects plus it works for almost everything. Recently, I heard from a friend that,cucumber gel also works for getting rid of dark circles. I haven't tried this out yet, but I do intend too, and I'll let you know accordingly.
3) Turmeric- Might seem odd to you, but I've seen people use turmeric as a fairness agent, and I'm quite sure it helps in smoothening your skin too. For this, you make a paste of turmeric with water, and apply it on your face. Let it dry and wash it out later. It will brighten your face and soften the skin too.
4) Fuller's Earth- Called Multani Mitti in my country, India, this is one very effective product! It is mainly used in facepacks and facial kits. This is quite famous here, because of the instant results it gives. You just have to apply it all over your face and let it dry for quite some time. While drying it tends to give a stretchy feeling on your skin, but well, no pain no gain. Once you are washed with it, smooth and fair skin, here it comes!
5) Coconut oil/ Petroleum jelly- However much I hate oiling my hair, skin or anything, I can't disagree with the fact that it works wonders on your skin. Even petroleum jelly works wonderfully in making your dry skin soft again. And these are probably the best options out there! They are cheap and they work marvelously!
So, these were my 5 things to help you get smooth skin, this winter. Go natural instead of using some creams ! ;)
