Apple for firm skin.

Apples are full of health boosting antioxidants. They are not only good for your body but can also be used for skin protection. The juice of fresh apples tones the skin and provides enzymes that help balance and cleanse the skin. For healthy, glowing skin, apply a homemade apple paste after your regular face mask.

For clear skin:

1/2 apple, sliced
1 tsp honey
1 egg
1 tsp ascorbic acid

Make a fine paste of the above ingredients. Apply it evenly over your face and neck and leave on till it dries. Wash off with luke warm water. Apply this paste twice a week for clear skin.

For smooth skin:

1/2 apple sliced
2 tsp house hold starch
2 tsp warm milk

Mix together all these to make a paste, and apply the paste evenly over your face and neck. Wash it off after 10 minutes. Use regularly for smooth skin.

For Firm skin:

1 egg
1/2 apple sliced
2 tsp sugar
1 tsp honey
1 cup dry oats

Mix together and warm slightly before use. Apply over face and rinse after 15 minutes. Do it once a week.
