Ubtan would work wonders on the uneven skin.. also this mask/scrub.

2 tablespoons milk powder
2 tablespoons orange peel powder
2 tablespoons almond peel powder
3 tablespoons brown sugar

Mix all of the above with either lemon juice or tomato pulp (u can even use both) and leave it on for 15 mins, then scrub-off in circular motions.

Gina, have you ever thought of writing a book on beauty tips or maybe coming out with your products? You can be like Carol’s Daughter…and market your beauty treatments to Sephora.

And then you can give RV a huge discount for giving you the brilliant idea.

Blend a a bunch of mint leaves with the juice of 2 lemons and apply the mixture to u're arms.. leave it on for 20 mins. Keep re-applying it as it dries on u're arms.

Yes yes! People have bought hair-oil and ubtan from me in the UAE.. my grandmother makes it and does ‘dum’ on it by reciting certain verses from the Quran.

A GS member also bought the ubtan and oil right before her wedding..

LOL........go global, girl! I get discount for that idea!

Gina · July 23, 2009, 12:08pm
