Tomatoes to the rescue!!
Yes you read correctly. Tomatoes make an excellent skin treatment for everything from large pores and acne to rashes and more.Tomatoes have cooling elements to soothe raw skin, astringents to remove excess oil, and tons of vitamin C and A to brighten dull skin and restore its health. Tomatos are good because they contain alpha hydroxy acid to help get rid of any dead skin cells and encourage regular cell turnover. So basically to get rid of bad skin and help good new skin grow. It also helps clarify any acne scars you have. Who would have known your granny was right all those years ago with her "miracle home remedies"
Honey i shrunk the pores!!! lol sorry i couldnt help myself. So here's what you do.
Combine one tablespoon of fresh tomato juice with two to four drops of fresh lime juice. Apply the mixture with a cotton ball and massage gently into skin using circular motions. Leave on the skin for about 15 minutes. Rinse with lukewarm water to shrink pores even further, then moisturize.
Cure Acne!! Mash a fresh tomato and apply the pulp liberally to your face. Leave on skin for an hour or more, then rinse and moisturize. Do this every day for several days and your acne will disappear. Yes this has worked for the odd breakout i might have had. Never had acne so can't tell you from my own personal experience but i know it's worked for others.
The quick and easy facial!! Cut a tomato in half and rub it on your face. Press into blackheads. Let the tomato juice sit on your face for about 15 minutes. You can also rub it on your neck area. Rinse and moisturize.
The alpha hydroxy acid lifts all the dead skin and helps give your skin a healthy, even toned glow. It is actually gentle enough to do this every other day...but that depends on your skin type so test it out on a smaller skin area before you start using it regularly.
Use tomato as an astringent!!
To remove excess oil from your skin, crush a fresh tomato and strain, then set the juice aside. Next, squeeze a cucumber into the tomato juice. Apply to skin with a cotton ball daily to keep oil and acne under control.
Get a honey glow!!
Mix honey and tomato juice and apply to your face and neck. Let sit for 15 minutes, then rinse!!! Your skin will be smooth and glowing!
