Easy ways to care for your skin while staying home

When Bellahut products are not available (hehe) there are some hacks you can use to care for your skin. For instance we have all seen the use of cucumber slices to help reduce puffiness and discoloration around the eyes. Here’s a couple we can share with you during this time of crisis when we all need to stay a home.

Moisturizer – Milk and honey. You don’t need to mix too much but a small amount of each can help keep dry skin in check. The ratio for this is usually best at a 2:1 milk to hone. So if you want just a bit we suggest 1 tablespoon of honey with 2 tablespoons of milk (Buttermilk or at least whole milk is suggested for best results.)

Lightening & Hyperpigmentation – Lemon. Lemon is rich in Vitamin C which in turn helps stimulate the melanin production in our skin. Using a Lemon on your face once daily can help prevent hyperpigmentation which can help you maintain that glowing skin you have worked so hard to get. We recommend squeezing one lemon into a small container and using a cotton ball to apply the juice, let sit on the skin for 10 minutes and rinse. If you wish you can gently apply directly from a cut lemon by dabbing the lemon on your face. Be sure not to get lemon juice near or in your eyes as it will burn and cause discomfort.

Don’t forget about the juice from a potato as well. Yup, that’s right, a potato. I always like surprising people with this one. The juice from a potato is also rich in vitamin C and has mild bleaching properties. The starch can also be a great way to help reduce dark spots caused by age or the sun.

Puffy eyes – Cucumber. Cucumber slices only about 1/8 inch thick can be applied to the eye area and left to sit for 20 to 30 minutes. Cucumber is the same PH as our skin and aids in replenishing your skins protective and natural acid mantle which helps promote glowing skin.

Repair and Regenerate – Aloe Vera. If you have it around the house, Aloe Vera is a great way to increase cell turnover and help skin repair and regenerate. Aloe Vera is also known for helping your skin to remove dead cells which can help you maintain your glowing skin at home.

That’s all we have for today. Stay safe our there and we look forward to seeing you soon at BELLAHUT.COM.
