LEMON. Here
are just a few of the ways you can use it, to achieve spectacular results.
Skin Sense
Mix a few drops of
lemon juice with an equal amount of water. Apply it on your face with a
cotton ball. This makes a great astringent.
Beset by blemishes? No
problem. Simply dab the area with lemon juice a few times a day. This removes
the redness from the blemished area.
 Mix the juice from 1
lemon with 2 parts coarse salt and 1 part olive oil to make a paste. Step
into the shower and massage into body. Turn on the shower and rinse. Pat dry
and apply a rich moisturizer. This makes a great exfoliating scrub and leaves
your skin soft and glowing.
Turmeric powder is
also excellent for your skin. Mix turmeric powder along with a little lemon
juice and wash off after 10 minutes. Be careful though the yellow tends to
stain the face, so do this before going to bed.
You can make an
excellent face mask by mixing 2 tablespoons papaya pulp with 10 drops of
lemon juice. Rinse off after 20 minutes. You've heard it said again and again
- you can never drink too much water, but what's even better is water to
which a twist of lemon has been added. (No sweet or other spices - we're not
talking lemon water here!) This is not only great for your health, but good
for your complexion as well.
Step by Step to
Steam Cleansing
 Most skin types
benefit from regular steaming, but don't steam your face if you have thread
veins as it would only worsen the condition. Also, don't steam your face more
than once a week. it may dry your skin excessively. Bring a quarter of water
to boil and take it to the table. Add the juice of half a lemon and a handful
of any herbs (basil or mint). Tie back your hair and drape a towel over your
head and the bowl to form a tent, to trap the steam. After you've steamed
your face for fifteen minutes, gently squeeze out blackheads, if any, and
splash it with cold water to close pores. Apply a moisturizer 15 minutes
later.
A Natural Bleach
 Streak your hair the
natural way. Add lemon to strands of hair and sit in the sun for fifteen
minutes. Do this sparingly because it could damage dry hair. Cut a lemon in
half and rub it on hyper-pigmented areas like your elbows and knees to
lighten them.
Mix a few drops lemon
juice with an equal amount of honey if you have dry skin, or with cucumber
juice if your skin is oily. Wash off after 15 minutes. Get rid of age spots.
Cut a lemon wedge and hold it directly on the spot for ten minutes. Rinse
with warm water. Repeat this every day until the spots lighten or vanish
altogether!
Lemon is good for
removing stains on teeth - rub with the peel, then rinse with water.
Hair Care
For hair that shines,
add the juice of a lemon to one cup water. Pour it over your hair after
shampooing as a final rinse. Do not rinse off.
Squeeze lemon juice in
your hair while rinsing off the shampoo. This removes shampoo residue from
your hair and smells great!
Troubled by hair loss?
Try this: Mix the juice of one lemon with 4 tbsp coconut milk. Massage it
into your scalp and wash off after half an hour. Do this at least once a week
to arrest hair fall.
And More...
Instant refreshment
for your face: Add lemon to water and freeze it. Rub your face with this
lemon and ice cubes whenever you're hot, tired or simply bored...
Soak your fingertips
in a mixture of 1 cup warm water and the juice of 1/2 lemon for about 5
minutes. Rinse and pat dry, pushing back cuticles as you dry.
Rub lemon peel over
your nails and buff with a soft cloth. This is great for your nails. Do this
once a week.
Adding lemon to a warm
bath helps to invigorate the body. You come out from your bath feeling fresh
and fabulous!
