Hey, quick question for you all...
My soon to be sis in law is Caucasian with very pale skin. Do you guys think haldi will stain her skin? I assume all the aunties will want to put that haldi/besan mixture on her during the mayoon and mehndi days...
Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~
Why not use something else instead of haldi, but im sure Gina will help u..and guide u better..
Haldi doesn't stain the skin for days.. wipe it off with an astringent.
Lemon juice and glycerin will also help get u're normal lip color back.
For teeth whitening scrub it with half-cut strawberry sprinkles with black pepper..even baking soda is known for it.

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~
I need help with my hair... can someone tell me wut to do for thining hair? i oil my hair regularly but i need somehting else to make the front hair look fuller and become healthier. I have thick hair in the back but the front looks thin and makes it look thin comparing it to the ones in the back. Anything else besides oiling it?
Don't over-do the oil.. ure just using more shampoo to wash it out and hence more chemicals.. apply oil 2-3 times a week.. try the remedies posted on this thread there are plenty!Milli, the stuff that u have posted maybe great combined in a particular way..but combining everything won't result in a "good" ubtan :)
gina
what do u think i should eliminate from it
Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~
hi Gina, thanks for your tips, quite helpful! :)
i have one more question abt feets, i have dark not really dark though but kinda , spots on my toes, n they luk ugly :( ... i do exfoliate and moisturize them often. they got a lil lighter but still the spots are not completly gone. any suggestions?
Mili, ubtan is a dry powder and u can't combine it with all the oils and extracts.. it's best to be sure of u're skin-type then apply anything onto u're face. What "formula" works for u may cause a serious reaction on another person.MissK, what were the spots caused by?
Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~
hi i was wondering if anyone of you has used bio oil for uneven skintone or anything else?
Maria, ask her to exfoliate them often (pumice stone or a scrub) and moisturise them really well too.. she shud apply vaseline and wear LOOSE socks at bedtime for a couple of hours.. In addition to this a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice and sugarcane juice can be applied for 1/2 hour.
