Cucumber Honey Mask(home remedy)

This year it was terribly cold in Bhopal & I spend my most of the time at farm house which is far from Bhopal & is far colder than the city. I avoided the mask & all coz of the cold.

But since temperature hasn’t increased  alot yet and my skin is feeling dry ,so I am using this homemade mask from last 15 days and it doing great.

Cucumber & honey mask:

be beautiful with punam

Take a cucumber & grate it & squeeze it to take out its juice & mix honey half of cucumber’s quantity in to it.My mom says i can store it for 3 hours only but i have stored it for 3 days in refrigerator.
I am using it with cotton ball & let it stay for at least 15 min only coz it's stightly sticky & then wash it with plain water.

With the continuous use you can see a brightened & soft skin.
I had some dryness as well & it reduced my inflammation on cheeks very quickly.

Why honey & cucumber:
I always say honey is my favorite ingredient. Honey is rich in nourishing trace element, natural moisturizer.
Cucumber reduce pigmentation, hydrates & soothes skin resulting in reduced inflammation.

Amazing... my skin is smiling reading the list of ingredients.

In my college days i used to grind orange peels to use it as face pack,but now I can get the benefits of orange peels without that tedious grinding. Thanks to aroma magic...

My experience: It comes in a plastic tub with an extra foil lid covering the tub. The fragrance is light & not irritating at all.

The best part is its creamy & waxy texture. Which never makes my skin dry & stretched like what other face pack does. Even after washing, my skin never felt dry instead I have soft & brightened skin.

I have been using this from quite a long time & every time it gives lovely glow to my skin. It’s great when you want a quick fix to brighten dull skin. And the glow will last at least for two three days.

Direction to use says to keep it for 20 minutes but it doesn’t dry completely in 20 minutes so I take 10 more minutes to let it dry completely coz I think it works better if kept for longer duration.

It even out my skin tone & makes it look clearer.

It never broke me out even being so creamy .I think it can work great for all skin type coz its really creamy & moisturizing.

Conclusion: It’s a Holy Grail product for me. Probably I have no plans for visiting parlors till I have this product with me coz I get that brightness & glow at home with my choice of music instead of that boring instrumental.

No parabens , no sls , no harmful chemicals , wow my skin is smiling J.I was very much impressed reading its ingredients  like kokum butter which is a substitute of cocoa butter & rich in fatty acids. Kokum butter is composed of beneficial compounds that helps to regenerate skin cells.

Sandal &  turmeric are its main ingredients & the most commonly heard ingredients for skin care especially by nanny’s& mommy’s .We all are aware of there qualities but let me remind you once again.

Sandal helps in reducing blemishes, acne & its scars; it heals scrapes, rashes, dry & itchy skin because of its cooling properties.

Turmeric: helps in treating infection, gives glowing & fair skin.

My experience:

Sadly I have few blackheads, some of them are old & some are new, some keeps reoccurring at the same placeL

Uff my only enemies are blackheads & for killing them I keep trying scrubs (as an weaponJ).

Well coming to this scrub, it’s a very soft scrub with a very light fragrance which is herbal & natural.

It’s absolutely not harsh or abrasive to skin coz granules are very tiny & soft.

Never left my skin with a film that most of the scrubs did especially on those parts where I prefer to scrub slightly more to get good result like the corners of lips & nose.

It left the skin clean & soft (as its really moisturizing)

Though it’s so much enriched with butters it never broke me out. I used it as a body scrub as it’s mainly a body polish scrub only but it’s so gentle that it couldn’t exfoliate my skin that nicely, I was just left with a smooth & light scented skin.

During winters I used it on my face before going to bed without following my moisturizer & it kept my skin completely moisturizing. I think it’s completely buttery.

It’s mainly for skin lightening & I noticed some clarity & brightened skin every time I use it.

Being a scrub I expect it do something for my blackheads & it worked on soft & new blackheads as well as white heads but not good for deep blackheads. As the granules are very soft it never hurt my skin. So I think every one should try this, it can be used daily & it’s good for all skin type,it can do wonders for dry skin.

Auravedic outlets are only in few cities like: Mumbai, Hyderabad, Pune, Banglore & Goa. It is also available online on www.naturalmantra.com
