15 Natural Skincare Tips and Recipes that are Cheap and Effective

Need a quick (and cheap!) beauty fix? Just head to the kitchen. Try our DIY beauty recipes and natural skincare tips to get better hair and skin for the price of pennies.

Fix eyebags with tea bags

This is one of the classic natural skincare tips!  Place two teabags in a small bowl in the refrigerator. Whenever your eyes feel puffy or tired, just take out two bags and leave them on your eyelids for 10 minutes.

Get whiter, brighter skin with a papaya mask

Enzymatic exfoliants break down dead skin cells without scratching your skin. The two best natural sources are papaya and pineapple, which both contain bromelain. Just blend or mash ¼ cup papaya with 1 tablespoon fresh pineapple and then leave on your skin for 10 to 15 minutes.

As for the rest of the fruit, drink it! They both contain loads of vitamins that are good for your skin and immune system. Fresh pineapple juice can even help lower your blood pressure!

Get rid of breakouts (and body fat) with apple cider vinegar

Did you know that taking a tablespoon of raw apple cider vinegar firs thing in the morning can improve your digestion and help you lose weight? That’s already one great reason to buy a bottle!

But that’s not all. If you have acne-prone skin, just pour a little apple cider vinegar on a cotton pad and then apply it just like a toner. It kills bacteria and tone the skin. Rinse off and continue with your regular skincare routine.

Apple cider vinegar is also great for removing product build up in the hair (just add a teaspoon to your shampoo once a week).

So that’s three natural skincare tips for one product – what a beauty bargain!

Turn a night cream into a sleeping mask with honey

Once a week, mix a few drops of honey into your usual night cream. Honey is a humectant, which pulls moisture into your skin. That makes any moisturizer work just like a special sleeping mask!

Make a clarifying shampoo with baking soda

Residue from shampoo and styling products can build up on your hair and make it greasy and flat. Just a teaspoon of baking soda into your regular shampoo once a week. This will cut through all that product buildup and make your hair extra clean and bouncy! Read more…
