Here are a few I use every summers, they work well for me..try some out!
Boil a tsp of green tea and squeeze the juice of a lemon, freeze this in ice-cube trays and use it on your face and after waxing/threading.
Watermelon pulp (chilled) great for oily skin
Yoghurt and mint paste, cleanses and moisturizes.
Fill a small spray-bottle with rosewater and place it in the refridgerator, and spray as often as you like.
Keep a tube of aloe vera gel in the refridgerator, for sun burns
Mix powdered fullers-earth/multani mitti with enough rosewater to form a paste and put it in the refridgerator in a sealed jar. Helps tighten pores and removes excess oil/sebum.
A rose/cucumber, aloe calming mask is a great thing to have.
Soak cotton-pads with rosewater (chilled) and place it over your eyes at night.
Buttermilk (cold) soothes sunburnt skin and moisturizes.

Thanks Gina
Just wondering what does this one do does it help with the redness after waxing or something??? and also i find that after waxing or threading sometimes i break out in some place on my face and it's like just a few tiny zits in one area of my skin. Is there something I can do about that or is just that my skin is sensitive?
It's great for minor sunburns swat, and tones your skin and tightens your pores as well. Use a toner right after threading or waxing.. followed by aloe vera gel. Inshallah it'll prevent the breakouts/irritation.
