Face Pack… with Orange

Orange is purely a drink to most of us. But do you know that when it’s used directly on your skin the benefits are there. In fact, just the peel of the orange has way more Vitamin C than the orange itself. Bright, shiny and tangerine, the peel of the orange contains antioxidants and using it regularly in face packs will give you clear and brighter skin. Okay, now try this out…

* Orange Peel and Yoghurt:

Take one tablespoon of orange peel powder and two tablespoons of yoghurt. Mix well. Apply on face and wash off after 20 minutes. This is an instant rejuvenating face pack which you can apply before a party or any big event.

* Orange Peel, Turmeric and Honey:

Take one tablespoon of orange peel powder, just a pinch of cosmetic turmeric, and one tablespoon of natural honey. Mix everything well into a fine paste. Apply on face and neck, and wash off after 5 to 10 minutes with any gentle face cleanser or rose water. Try not to use this on acne prone skin but if you decide to do so then follow it up with an acne skin face pack. Use this face wash over a period of time to remove stubborn tan.

*  Orange and Papaya:

Mash the pulp of one orange and quarter of a papaya in a bowl and apply it to your face and neck with your fingers or a brush. Keep it on for 15-20 minutes and then rinse your face. You can apply this pack once every two days. The face pack provides vitamin C and vitamin A to your skin, lightens dark circles, blemishes, while giving your face a distinct glow.
