Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

^ Jincho where about do u live and when is ur wedding now…?

The best thing to get good skin etc is, healthy diet and good sleep which is between 10pm till fajr… And ofcourse we don’t follow this :bummer:

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

i live near peshawar! i cant sleep at 10pm coz i talk to my fiance after 12 because his working time ends after 12. gime some home remedies, my skin is no more glowing

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

Same my prob...


I know we are going off topic... but where in Psh... because I too belong from same, living in Isloo, though... but all my functions would be in Psh.. need to ahve some info... or we should talk in private

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

well, i need remedies na, im really getting frustrated coz of my skin :( near peshawar, cant tell u exact place, shorry :( wht info u need?

Shay, is u're friend anaemic? She needs to take an iron supplement.. usually hairloss is due to a poor diet and low iron levels.

For topical application she can take about 500ml of coconut oil and 3 tablespoons of powdered "methi dana" fenugreek seeds..just heat the oil till it bubbles and add the methi-dana powder, turn off the flame and let it steep overnight.. ask her to massage the scalp.

Jin, do u have active cne and pimples or is it just the scars?

If u still get breakouts (pimples) then u shud see a derm and get those treated first, no use of treating u're scars when u'll breakout and scar again. Please remember u have to treat them from inside..maybe a short course of antibiotics, maybe topical creams. U can try equal parts of cinnamon powder and honey JUST on the pimples, wash-off in 10 mins.

For scars I find red sandalwood powder, wild turmeric and lemon juice the most effective.

Wash u're face and then use a toner made from neem leaves boiled in water use this toner several times a day.

Mint juice with turmeric powder (paste) apply for 10 mins and wash-off

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

Gina i came across this great thread yesterday n today tried 2 of ur remedies...1 for facial hair..n other for blackheads..baking soda did the magic, sum1 else also told me this but i didnt trust her...but u r really trustworthy
now i wanna try for acne scars but wanna ask u before starting...is it ok for red acne scars..whenever i exfoliate my face even wid soft hands n scrub for sensitive skin my face gets red. I dont wanna apply anything tht makes my face more red like tamatar....
Then i live in KSA due to dry weather thrs a white powdery layer of dryness on face n dryness also causes ance on body..even use of extra dry skin moisturizers n regular exfoliation doesnt work tht much...
I was using neutrogena face wash for acne but due to dryness left it but again hv started using it as it works for me but followed by baby oil..wht do u say abt this?
Then we hv hair fall common in KSA n i think whole of the middle east... no deficiency or prb n even taking multivit tab...but still hair falling n wht to do for the oily ones?
Is only ubtan enough for dark neck?
For how long to apply the mix of mint leaves n lemon juice for freckles?
Then frm wht kind of shop n in wht kind of packing do we get red sandalwood powder n ubtan in middle east?
Sorry for being too long...but why not to take full advantage of u ask for all....Thnk u so much for this thread

I wanna share 1 tested remedy for tanned hands n feet....take sum olive oil n mix equal amonut of fruit vinegar in it n rub it over hands n feet...for abt 5-10 min. Then remove wid cotton swab. IA u will see fair skin instantly.

Any Indian shop wud have red sandalwood.

If u have active acne and pimples, please dont exfoliate and have u're pimples treated first.

Many people complain abt hair-loss in KSA, so try the remedy I've given earlier.

If u have oily skin, dont use baby oil on u'e face! Use a water-based or oil-free moisturizer.

If u have a dark neck, mix ubtan powder with lemon juice and when it's dry scrub it off.

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

hey Gina, how do you get rid of black heads and in-grown hair? Specially in-grown hair! Thank you, your really good at all this, are you like professionally into skin care and stuff?

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

Thanks Gina for ur quick reply.
Well i dont hv much pimples now, so can i use tht sandalwood paste n etc on area widout acne?
N u didnt mention for how long n how frequently to apply tht mixture for freckles? my aunt hv them on face...

As far as I know, malai is the skin of the milk, after its been boiled. What I do is boil full fat milk and scrape off with a spoon the skin from the top. Repeat process until milk is all finished and then mix malai into haldi and then put on skin. scrubb into face, like a scrub and leave for at least 5/10 mins. Wash off and your skin is all nice and clear.

Do you speak Pashto? Your English makes me laugh. Sorry. :)

Dolce, for blackheads try the baking soda and water mixture..and to reduce them apply potato juice to the affected area every night. For ingrown hair exfoliate it's the best u can do. Olive oil and brown sugar makes a great body scrub.

If u have oily skin, please dont use "malai"

Mano, yes u may use the red sandalwood paste and use it 4 times a week.

Potato JUICE? How can you get juice outta potatoes? I never knew potatoes had any juice.

U grate them and squeeze them.. that's potato juice! Or put them into u're "juicer"

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

thanks Gina G for ur reply!!pimples dont breakthrough now a days but when i thread uper lips and eye brows then it comes out, secondly pimples are not much but scars and spots left behind by pimpples look so ugly. how to get rid of these "daagh"? i have oily skin, i dont use much things over my face, even i dont use makeup daily. i just wash my face with johnsons foaming facial wash and nothing else i do. then why is that so, why my face is getting darker coz of spots?
