Here goes the first remedy and care
for cracked heels-
I just apply glycerine on the cracks of my heel at night and let it dry for a while and then get into bed. It makes the skin soft and supple and heels cracks. U can also apply this to maintain softness.

Hope it works for u people.

for soft and supple and glowing hands and legs-
apply some oil(i use normal cooking oil- canola) on legs and hands and then scrub in sugar cyrstals on the applied area till it dissolves. U will feel the difference. So soft and silky skin.

Everyone is welcome for their inputs with body/beauty care in this thread..Please share ur recipes/experiences..

Quite interesting thread..there is no age limit to take care of yr body and face..So, keep on doing to make yrself young which I use to do..This is what I do everyday.

Take a piece of banana and mix with olive oil, apply on face. After 30 mts, wash completely in warm water. You can feel the softness immediately and yr face will start glowing slowly!!

During summer, can apply fresh whole moong flour(not direct flour) with curd or buttermilk on the face. Basically, moong is very good for skin and that is why, we are applying it to the new born baby's body. If you dont want, can omit kasturi manjal podi. But, moong with curd itself gives a good improvement to yr face.

Will share more..

The best scrubber:

For face the best way to scrub and cleanse it is use sugar. Apply soap on the face and neck and then use sugar and keep scrubbing , till the sugar dissolves in the soap. You can definitely feel the difference.

wow nice thread!! Yes you are right R.

For soft face skin. take a few drops of gingellly oil and add a few drops of water and turmeric and rub it in the palm of the hand and apply on the face (also can be applied on hands and legs).

Wash with soap or face moong dal powder. You will feel and see the difference

Keep it going napolims445!!

Thanks

But, seetha, there is a problem with this local indian store turmeric because of the strong stain which will never leave the face. Being in US, it is difficult. So, it is better to use virali manjal or kasturi manjal where you will not face this yellow problem and the smell for kasturi manjal will also be much much better than our regular turmeric.
