Tomatoes for clear, radiant skin


How many of u hate tomatoes?? Well, now ull love dem :)

Tomatoes are a staple in every kitchen but hardly will you hear anyone extolling its cosmetic benefits. Whether you want to cure large pores or reduce acne and rashes or sooth a nasty sunburn or simply to revive the glow on dull skin, tomatoes are beneficial in enormous ways.

Tomatoes are an excellent source of antioxidants which acts as a natural toner and reduce ur skin pores. Give a try and ull never regret J

Some quick tips for my bloggies below:

  Smash a tomatoe till a nice paste and mix 1 spoon of honey and apply evenly over fresh face. Remember a clean skin absorbs the vitamins much deeper.
  Add little almond oil and extra virgin olive oil to the above paste for that extra smoooth skin.This mixture works wonders specially for dry skin and during winter.
  Take half a cup of oatmeal , 1 smashed tomatoe, honey and little almond oil. Mix well till you get a thick paste. Apply gently over face,neck and hands and scrub over for 5 mins. Leave on for 15 mins and rinse with warm water followed by your moisturiser. I jus loooove dis scrub coz you can instantly see ur skin glowing J . Repeat this twice a week.
