We all try so many different things to get beautiful skin, isn’t it? Yes, we do for sure! Some people try different beauty products such as cleanser, toner, moisturiser, etc. to get healthy skin, and others try home remedies to rejuvenate their skin. And then, there are some people who try the blend of both: beauty products and home remedies. Believe me, friends, when I say this, that one of the best ways to heal your skin from within is using fruit face packs.
Know why? Because fruits are full of nutritional values that can make your skin look beautiful as a young princess. Now, before we dig into the tips and ways to prepare your own fruit face packs, let me tell you some essential factors that you must keep in mind before you get a fruit facial done at home.
Tips to Remember when you Apply Fruit Face Packs
1. You must apply the mask after you have cleansed and exfoliated your skin. It is because both cleansing and exfoliating will remove all the dirt, impurities and dead skin cells from your skin and also boost blood circulation, which will eventually improve the results of the fruit face packs.
2. You must always keep this thing in mind that you need to blend the fruit thoroughly so that you can extract a large amount of pulp.
3. Avoid wearing new clothes while applying face mask as fruit packs can get messy and ruin your clothes.
4. Some fruit packs can get runny due to extreme fluid present in the fruit pulp, and so you can add oats to the fruit pulp so that the fruit pack can stay on your face.
5. Your face and the neck are both exposed to the same environment and affected by the same; hence, you should apply fruit pack to both face and neck.
