    People with acne- pimple problem, please don't scrub your face too much.

    Yes, you are right for kasturi turmeric. The smell is totally different from our regular turmeric. And for virali manjal, it is in the form of solid (can say hard turmeric).

    In those days, they used to rub this virali manjal on stone and apply on the body; that thick. And, also they use to give it to ladies during function/festival(haldi kumkum).

    Today, I read in a magazine:

    Give a try-Take equal quantity of Radish juice and buttermilk, mix and apply on the face; after 30 mts or so, clean with water.

    Or

    Take a quarter portion of tomato or whatever you need and apply on the face or that particular black scars. Wait for some time and clean with fresh water.

    But, you cant find the result soon; will take a longer time.

    Hi
    This is an interesting thread .
    I made a home made scrub using sugar and honey equal parts mix well and store in a bottle. it was good for two weeks, it got over by that time and my face skin was soft and supple due to the honey.
    one more tested recipe is grated potato with curd applied to the face reduces black cirlces and black marks on the face, but have to do it cont. for long time.

    here is tip using malai (creme from milk..)
    Very good for dry and normal skin. for oily skins suits to some and does not suit to the other..
    Apply malai on skin( face/ neck/body) and lightly massage while applying and let it sit on skin till dry. wash with cold water.
    UR skin will be soft, supple, shining and will have got moisturised in this process.

    Use the honey sugar mixture as a scrub. if ur skin is too smooth then dont use it, if it is rough and u have black heads etc, then u can use the scrub alternative days or once in three days , apply little on ur face and rub it gently and then wash away with lukewarm water. it helps exfoliate the dead cells in ur skin.

    Honey doesn't change the hair color. i have applied it on my face and sometimes it gets over the eyebrows etc, but the hair color doesnt change, i remember my mom telling that honey on hair will make hair turn white but it doesnt. it is a natural moisturizer.
