Is almond oil good for the hair? Also, is rosewater helpful for oily skin? — Swathi
Almond oil is a good choice. However, if your skin is oily, your scalp may be oily too. Olive oil or sesame seed oil may be used. Rosewater is suitable for all skin types. Mix it with lemon juice or cucumber juice for oily skin. Or, buy an astringent lotion from a cosmetic store. Mix it with rose water in equal quantities and apply it.
The skin around my lips is dark and there's a hint of a moustache. What should I do to get rid of it? — Archana
Home remedies do not remove facial hair. They are said to lessen facial hair growth if used regularly over a period of time. Try any of the following remedies to discourage facial hair growth. Make a thick paste of sugar, lemon juice and water and apply it in the direction of the growth. Wash it off after it dries. Apply it once or twice a week. Apply a paste of turmeric powder and milk on the skin with a circular motion. It is said to discourage facial hair, but it may leave a yellow colour on the skin. For the dark area around your lips, mix honey and lemon juice in equal quantities and apply it daily. Wash it off after 15 minutes. Twice a week, apply a face mask. Mix 3 teaspoons of oatmeal with one teaspoon each of honey, curd and lemon juice, or egg white. Apply it on your entire face, avoiding the lips and the area around your eyes. Wash it off after half-an-hour.
