Aging is something that every one has to face, but what’s important is to age gracefully.

Here are a few simple home remedies you can try out by yourself to keep looking fresh, youthful and not show the tell-tale sign of aging:

• In order to get that radiant look, grate raw coconut and squeeze milk out of it. Apply this milk on your face and it will give your skin a glowing effect.

• Avocado really helps to give you a young and fresh look because of its oily nature. Simply apply either the pulp or slices of avocado on your face and you skin will get that rejuvenated look.

• Buy castor oil and apply this on your skin, to soften your skin and remove wrinkles.

• Marks and pigments on the skin can be removed by rubbing raw potato on areas having marks or pigments. Many of us suffer from pimples and blackheads and they really mar facial appearance. With age these problems worsen your appearance. A simple home made remedy for this is applying a mixture that’s made up of equal quantities of glycerine, lime juice and rose water on the skin before going to sleep. It’s quite effective!

• Heavy work really tells on your eyes and with age they get wrinkles and look very tired. Counter this by applying best quality bee’s honey around the skin of your eyes.

• Lemons are not just useful to quench you thirst during the summer you can use them as part of your beauty treatment as well. Just applying a few drops of lemon juice on your face can help remove blemishes and age spots as well.

• The oldest remedy to reducing wrinkles on the face is to drink plenty of water. It makes a difference and it shows!

• Sugar cane juice when combined with turmeric powder gives you a paste that’s quite effective in controlling wrinkles and prevents the skin from aging.

• Cut off the core of a pineapple and rub this core on your face. Leave your face to dry for 10-15 minutes. This method is very effective in removing the first signs of wrinkles.

• Certain essential oils are very helpful in reducing wrinkles. Take drops of oils such as sandalwood, geranium, rosewood, rose jasmine, neroli, and frankincense. Mix these oils with primrose oil or some other oils which you feel you can use as a base oil to make a natural anti wrinkle lotion.

The benefits of using home-made remedies are such that they won’t cost you too much. It’s not like going to a beauty salon or seeing a skin specialist, using costly cosmetics to look good. Home-made remedies save your time and money, plus they are quite effective.

Regularly applying home-made mixes will give you that youthful appearance you always been craving for and you don’t have to spend to much of time in doing them. Just allot a couple of minutes each day for your face treatment and in a few month you will see the difference.

-Can I use the instant ones instead? I see coconut milk mixes on the shelves...it would really save me time!

-Burt's Bees has a really nice and luxurious eye cream! It's quite expensive so I haven't picked up mine yet, but I'm thinking of getting one this Christmas. :)

Multani mitti is the most effective natural remedy for cleaning oily skins.It works as a scrb and cleans the deep pores of the skin.
The good thing about it is that it can be applied all over the body not just face.

the problem with natural homemade solutions is that they take effect so slowly. i usually end up getting tired with all the mess and the routine and not being able to lay down on my pillow while i have them on my face.

but this is the best and most proven anti-aging and over-all skin care tip:




The oldest remedy to reducing wrinkles on the face is to drink plenty of water. It makes a difference and it shows!

A quick fix for tired saggy eyes is to lie down and put cucumber slices or two cool tea bags that have been steeped over the eyes for about 10 to 15 minutes. It refreshes and helps decrease swelling and dark areas.

With those lines around the eyes, we call the crow's feet it may be worth considering a daily massage routine and the use of a good moisturizer each day to keep the skin as supple as possible.

Massage in a little apricot oil and with the ring finger massage in a circular motion from the corner of the eye outwards towards the temple area. Do this on a daily basis to exercise and improve the efficiency of the muscles encircling the eye.
Botox is widely used in invasive treatments but good alternatives can be found in the form of certain moisturizers, use these on a daily basis to keep your skin from drying out, there are some that provide excellent overall anti aging treatments in general too. Look for those with built in sun protection.

Sour curd (home-made, if possible) is a great antioxidant that reduces the signs of aging, much effectively. It helps preventing the activities of free radicals, within body. You can intake it with sprinkles of black salt, in the afternoon. You can also massage some curd on your face and neck, before you bathe and then mop it with a wet towel. Curd not only lessens wrinkles, but gives a radiant and glowing look to the skin. However, it is not ideal for oily skin.

I did a separate post on the benefits of apricot kernel oil for everyone to be able to find. It is a very good oil for aging skin!

I am going to try this around my eyes and see if it will help out the crows feet that are starting there. I wonder if it will help out the frown lines too.
