Tomatoes for a healthy and Beautiful Skin
Tomato is not only useful for health but also for improving the beauty. Here are some tips which can be followed at home for improving your beauty of the skin.
- Tomatoes work as astringents (Astringents are the chemical compounds which precipitate the proteins). When the skin is exposed to sunlight and becomes weak, grind the tomato and make juice and to that add some curd and apply to the skin and wash the skin after 20 minutes.
- Take equal amount of tomato juice and honey and apply on the skin. Wash it after 15 minutes. If it is done regularly skin becomes soft and glow increases.
- If the skin is oily and pimples are present, then take tomato juice and cucumber juice in equal amounts and mix well. Then take a cotton swab and apply with it. If it is done regularly the oiliness decreases and pimples also get reduced.
