besan to form a gooey paste . Apply this on your face and let it sit until it
gets dry. You will be surprised to see your skin with absolutely tan free and
smooth.
Not many
of us relish getting pelted on the face with tomatoes, but believe it or not,
tomatoes are excellent for the skin.
The humble tomato is one item no kitchen shelf is ever without, no matter what the season or location. Perhaps this is why most of us take the tomato for granted and do not appreciate the tremendous health and beauty benefits it brings.Even I belonged to the same category until I discovered it myself.
Tomatoes are rich in anti-oxidants and so they counter the ageing effects on the skin, by cutting out the number of free radicals in your body. Free radicals break down the support system for your hair and skin, so it makes sense to eat a tomato a day.
In addition, tomatoes help preserve moisture levels in the body. In the summer or winter, when our skin is exposed to artificial heating or cooling, moisture levels in our body fall. We need to constantly replenish this water supply, or our body will start sucking moisture from the skin and the hair. In addition to eating a tomato a day, it makes sense to drink no less than 10 to 12 glasses of water daily.

Apply tomato paste to your face and leave on for 15 minutes. Wash off with
warm, not hot, water. In addition, tomatoes also help lighten the complexion,
especially if mixed with cucumber juice. This makes a great face mask for oily
skin. Place a cucumber slice on each eyelid and cover the rest of your face
with the mask, taking care to avoid the delicate under-eye area.
