Hey my beauties!! Welcome to my “Sunday Pampering” series.
Today I'm going to tell you about a wonderful almond night cream that does wonders to our skin. I have tried a few other almond face cream recipes in the past and though they were good, this recipe is the best. It has very powerful anti-aging properties and if used regularly will help reverse all signs of aging especially if coupled with a good diet.
Good natural anti-aging creams without any harmful chemicals
are so expensive but trust me you can make equally effective anti-aging creams
easily at home and this is one such recipe. If you use this cream every
day and night regularly, your skin will look nourished, supple and
glowing.
Just follow this recipe exactly and you'll get a smooth
luscious cream. Though everyone will benefit using this cream but aging
skin will benefit the most with it. This cream will last well in the
fridge for five to six days, do give it a try without fail.
For this recipe, we need five to six raw almonds. Soak them
overnight and the next day peel the outer skin.
Now take them in a mortar pestle or you can also use a mixer.
Add enough rose water to grind. Now grind to a paste.
Now strain the ground paste, don't discard the strained
pulp. We'll be using it later.
Now for every 2 teaspoons of almond milk, take around a
tablespoon of aloe vera gel that is free of color and perfume.
Add in quarter teaspoon of vegetable glycerin too.
Now mix well, at first the mixture will be very lumpy but as
we keep mixing it will form a smooth thick cream. If you're interested,
you can also add in few drops of your favorite essential oil to make it
smell good. This cream will dry quickly onto the skin. I have used only quarter
teaspoon of vegetable glycerin but if you have extremely dry skin, increase it
to half teaspoon. If you have oily skin, you can skip it all together.
Now take the cream in a bottle and store it immediately in
the fridge. To use, before going to bed remove all makeup and apply this
cream all over the face and neck in gentle upward strokes. You can apply
this cream under eyes too. If you use regularly under eyes, it will help
reduce dark circles very fast.
I am going to make a full body scrub that helps treat
and prevent strawberry skin and ingrown hair.
For that take the pulp in a bowl.
Add a tablespoon of coffee powder to it. Add in a
tablespoon of brown sugar too.
Finally add in liquid of your choice. Now mix well, I have
used plain water here, you can use rice water or even milk, if you have extremely
dry skin. Ingrown hair and strawberry
skin can be prevented if you use this scrub regularly.
To use, take the scrub and apply it all over the body, massage
for a few seconds and then wash it off. If you're using an epilator or
shaving your legs, there are higher chances of getting ingrown hair
and bumpy skin and this scrub will greatly help prevent it.
This scrub exfoliates the skin gently and leaves the skin
petal soft and radiant.
I hope you found this blog useful. Tell me what you think
