Hello Glamreaders,
Today i write to you about 'the importance of pre-wedding
facial routine
I have come to find that many brides will visit the
beauty salon and spa just before their wedding day. It is also a time for the
bride to engage in pampering herself before her big day. These days, the bride
will be joined by her bridesmaids etc. However, a day at the beauty salon and
spa will not have much of an effect on a bride's facial skin unless she has
also been taking good care of it prior to the big day.
If you want great looking, radiant and beautiful skin on
your wedding day, then it is important to begin a pre-wedding bridal beauty
care daily regime well in advance.
In keeping with eco-friendly and natural living ethics of
this blog's writers, we propose a few homemade facial masks with natural
wholesome ingredients that should be part of a bride's beauty regime (or any
woman's for that matter)! These masks work very well with us,and so we thought
its needful to share.
The starring ingredient in these facial masks
is...Yogurt!
Why Use Natural Yogurt in Face Masks? :
Well, yogurt has amazing cleansing properties that help
remove traces of dirt, pollution and make up from the pores of our skin and
leave it looking fresh, glowing and younger. A Yogurt Face Mask acts as a skin
tightening and reviving agent. It is particularly good for those who are
acne-prone.
The main function of yougurt is deep cleansing. It also
brightens the skin and evens out the skin tone. Apart from that, it is also
good for moisturizing and firming the skin.
These facial masks should stay on for 10-15 minutes, and
should be followed up with cleansing and a thin layer of moisturizer as the
last step.
Warning: If you have sensitive skin (for instance, react
adversely to AHA/ BHA) then do not use this recipe. If you put the yogurt on
your face and experience a burning sensation over the cheeks, you should wash
it off! A mild tingling sensation on the other hand is all right.
