DIY International Beauty Treatments You Have in Your Kitchen! - Women Campus
Greece
Tired of drying out your skin with new facial products? A quick trip to the grocery store is all you need to transform your skin the healthy and Grecian way. All you need is Greek yogurt, ground almonds or honey, and lemon juice. Mix the yogurt with either the ground almonds or honey, and lemon juice. Rub gently over your face and rinse with rose water, which can be ordered on Amazon.com, to leave skin hydrated. According to EndlessBeauty.com, "the lactic acid and enzymes found in yogurt help to hydrate and soothe irritated skin."
India
Even though our high school days are over, acne still creeps up on us once in a while. A unique acne-free solution that women in India use to keep their skin clear is the sandalwood plant, also found on Amazon.com. EnlessBeauty.com suggests mixing together one tablespoon of sandalwood powder, one tablespoon of turmeric powder, found at your local grocery store, and one tablespoon of water until a paste is formed. Gently apply the paste onto the acne-infected area and leave on overnight.
Dominican Republic and Morocco
Ready for a new secret to keep your hair silky smooth without it getting greasy? Again, another trip to your grocery store for avocados and olive oil makes it that simple. EndlessBeauty.com suggests mashing two avocados in a bowl then adding a tablespoon of olive oil. After applying the mixture to your hair (wet) and covering with a shower cap for about thirty minutes, rinse thoroughly. According to EndlessBeauty.com, women in Morocco have been using Moroccan oil, or argan oil, to create silky hair for hundreds of years. The oil is applied to dry hair and left overnight to soak. EndlessBeauty.com also suggests heating up the oil and adding lavender for fragrance. Wash hair thoroughly in the morning for fresh, soft hair.
Algeria
Want thicker eyelashes and eyebrows without using painful products? EndlessBeauty.com recommends castor oil, found in drugstores and beauty supply stores, the Algerian secret to beautiful lashes and brows.
Apply the oil on your eyebrows and lash base using a cotton swab every night for two weeks for best results.
