Apples are a rich source of vitamins A, B, C, malic acid, beta-carotene, as well as antioxidants that are vital for a glowing and younger-looking skin. This homemade night cream will sooth acne, heal scars, regenerate skin tissues, and smells simply great.
How to prepare it:
Cut an apple into small slices and blend them with two teaspoons of olive oil or rose oil or almond oil until it gets a smooth consistency. Bring it to a warm temperature in a double boiler. Now, add two teaspoons of rose water. You can also add turmeric, honey, nutmeg or cinnamon to reduce acne. Apply it every night to a clean, dry face for optimal results.
Olive Oil Night Cream
Olive oil has the phenomenal power to lessen pigmentation and improve skin tone. It is a natural skin moisturiser and delays the signs of ageing. More suitable for dry skin, this homemade olive oil night cream will give your skin a glowing, radiant effect.
How to prepare it:
Mix one-fourth cup of extra virgin olive oil, one teaspoon of coconut oil, and one teaspoon of beeswax in a pot. Heat it in a double boiler till the beeswax starts melting. Whip it up until it gets to a smooth and fluffy consistency. You can add a vitamin E capsule to it and a few drops of your favourite essential oil. Store it in a jar and apply every night to a clean, dry face by rubbing the cream in a circular motion on your skin.
