Egyptian Beauty Secrets ☆
6/28/2013
Today I am starting a new segment called Egyptian Beauty Secrets (EBS).
Time to time, I will post many different skin tips, recipes and information about ancient beauty. Stay tuned!
As we all know, Cleopatra is a beauty icon. I adore her for many reasons. Although she isn't alive in modern day, she used to have ravishing beauty like no other. She must have been a sight of beauty to have TWO empires fall for her. :3 Today I will tell you some secrets that you can do to get skin like hers.
♡ Milk ♡
1.Milk can do wonders to your body and face. Cleopatra used to use donkey milk, but you can easily replace that with your regular milk. If you use this on your skin it will glow and look more brightened. Use this repeatedly and it will make your skin softer, and more smooth looking. Here's a recipe that you can use.
RECIPE
Take about a cup of milk and add it to your bath. The tub should be full of water. Soak in it for as long as you want, and voila! Your skin should feel as smooth as a babys' butt.
♡ Honey ♡
Our next environmentally friendly ingredient is... Honey! Honey was used for thousands of year. Many people have its different use, but it was always a skin secret. Honey can do some of the same things as milk, but it also does better. Here are some of the things it does for your skin. :)
• Makes your skin look younger as it removes wrinkles
• Does not irritate skin (pure honey only)
• Makes you look brighter
• Fights and prevents acne
• Can be used to lighten hair (will make a seperate post in detail)
There are much more amazing things honey does for your skin! :3 Here is a recipe you can use:
RECIPE
- 2 tbs of sugar {acts as an exfoliator}
- 1 tbs of honey
- 1/2 a lemon {lightens skin tone}
Mix the above ingredients^^ When it is a nice consistency; apply it on your face and neck** Leave it on for about 15 minutes and wash off with cold water. Pat face dry with a towel. You should see results when you use it repeatedly~
This ends today's post ladies! If you have any more recipes, please do comment! I am always looking for natural skin treatments.
