Re: ~ Glowing Brides ~

Gina I want to know about some way to darken the color of mehndi on hands, its doesn't give very dark color on my hands...I only got dark color on my wedding else its just ughhhh.
I know about sugar syrup n about smoke of burnt cloves but I dont think they work much as I hv tried them... Any other good technique?
And henna which the arab women usually use, is it the same as black henna? I hv heard that there is some good arab henna that gives very nice dark color...

Water is no doubt great for u, flushes out all u're toxins and keeps u hydrated..but has no effect on the quality of u're skin.

That henna is actually a dye and not real henna..it's harmful and shud be avoided! After u're mehndi dries..apply vicks vapour rub on it.. then scrub it off don't wash u're hands though.

Gina, I need your help/advice again!

hey gina i have tiny wee pit holes in my skin bcos of my acne, i'm not sure if u have mentioned any tios 4 this b4 cos i cnt seem to find any. What wud recommend i use or put on to mimize them, ive already tried microderm, but i got a sin infection 4rm that and more pimples(

Gina · February 23, 2009, 9:44pm

Put a drop of chilled rosewater in u're eyes before u sleep :)

Gina · February 23, 2009, 9:45pm

Tweety the deep indented marks called "pit/pock marks" don't really go away.. but mint paste and neem paste combined with lemon juice, all equal portions would help u're skin appear more even.

Great advice Gina!

Wow Perfect timing! I'm getting married in 2 months insha'Allah and I couldn’t have come across a better thread. Thanks Gina! =)

U're welcome! :)

Wow!! How come I never saw this before!! You're great Gina! :)

Gina I am using turmeric and besan as a face wash once a day.. is it too much? I just mix it with some water(in hand) apply on face and wash it off just like you'll do with any other face wash,, i was just wondering if i should not use it daily..

Thanks a BUNCH!

I believe it really does. I drink lots of water. I am lazy in eating fruit so what I do is I cut loads of fruit up (I get my five portions ready and lay them in a tray) and put them all in a juice-machine and gulp it down in 3 goes through-out the day.

Marshallah, my skin texture, hair and nails have been looking so alive and amazing for years b/c of this diet. Also during the summer season I drink a lot of lassi which does wonders too. :)

Iggle · March 1, 2009, 9:25am

I just rub oil on it when the mendhi becomes hard. It always works for me. :)

Iggle · March 1, 2009, 9:29am

I really believe that the cure for such hair is to change your diet. Fruits, water etc will do wonders. :)

Gina · March 1, 2009, 11:07am

Waleeja, don't use turmeric everyday..besan is great and can be used everyday.
