Hi Everyone!
Sorry for writing less, I am still adjusting (read:struggling) to come back to routine. I am totally in love with the mountains (True Love) and our love gave me a ‘love bite’ as well! Extreme Tan 😛 It’s more like a sunburn (on my hands and upper back). So I have been using multiple things to get my original color and texture back 🙂
One being my ultimate Tan Fighter Packs and other one is this. Since scrubbing helps get rid of superficial tan I decided to make myself this pack. It works great as a scrub and as a pack for Soft, Bright and Glowing Skin.
Things you need for Soft, Bright and Glowing Skin:
- Watermelon – 2-3 medium sized pieces
- Banana- ¼ piece
- Milk Powder- 1 tbsp
- Oats powder – 1tbsp
- Organic Honey – 1tsp (optional)
Procedure:
Step 1: Mash water melon and banana in a blender and transfer it into a bowl
Step 2: Add milk powder to it
Step 3: Add powdered oats to it
Step 4: Add honey to it
This pack is also great for an instant face lift just before going to a party. I have been using this pack since a few days and I love to see the soft dewy glow on my skin. The brightness is yet to come (Our love was too strong you see :-P)

How to use this pack/scrub for soft, bright and glowing skin
I use this pack on week days mostly to revitalize my tired skin. I’ve kept weekday because it is in the middle of the week where your skin starts getting dull due to regular stressed life. This pack is a super savoir at that time!
I first wash my face with warm water so that my pores are open; then apply pack generously and keep it for 30 minutes; wet my hands and start scrubbing it for 2 minutes. I then wash it with warm water and lastly splash cold water to close my pores. Do not forget to moisturize later.
Ensure you are not allergic to any of the ingredients mentioned, please do a patch test first 🙂 So go ahead and give your skin this wonderful treat 😀
Love and Light,
