For dark-circles cucumber juice and potato juice mixed with rosewater is ideal. Soak cotton pads with this and leave it for atleast an hour =)

Feel free to contact me for any queries any of u may have =)
cool thanks. You're sweet

Girls pay alot of attention to their face, and don't take care of their hair/nails and feet..I have made-over the prettiest of faces but sadly they never took time out and "groomed" themselves =)

A manicure/pedicure is essential and can easily be done at home.
1.) remove all old nail-polish
2.)soak u're hands and feet in warm water with a little shower-gel.
3.) pat-dry hands and push back u're cuticles with a cuticle cream and an orange stick wrapped with tissue. (professionals cut the cuticles which cud lead to infections so avoid that)

4.) scrub hands with olive oil, lemon and sugar till the sugar dissolves.
5.) wash-off and buff nails and cut and file them (always file in one direction)
6.) apply u're favorite moisturizer

Do you mix this together and apply it underarm? For how long? and how often? I think this dark underarms problem for girls...so annoying!

Yes, Asian skins *sigh* mix them together to form a paste and leave it on for 20 mins and scrub-off (yes its a messy procedure)

i think its more of a hormonal problem.....or birthcontrol pills....
i would say...lose the stick...and exfoliate using a glycolic wash every other day(10% glycolic wash..or a 20% one..if you are tolerant)..dont rub too hard...wear loose cotton clothes...and keep your diet light...(so you wont sweat offensively..)

glycolic acid is used to exfoliate the skin...it comes in many concentrations...but you have to start with the mildest..and work up to the strongest...

If waxing aggravates u're skin's condition u shud either bleach or thread it..that damage can't be reversed do please give-up! For dark pigmentation, use red sandalwood and wild turmeric and honey (leave on for 30 mins and wash-off)

Sure, if u have brittle nails that chip and break-off easily then soak them in warm olive oil and massage into the cuticles as well..(soak for 20 mins)

Scrub u're knuckles with almond oil, lemon juice and brown sugar...

Gina I tried the Cinnamon and Honey mix on my face and it worked wonders! I have acne and all of it is gone! Only one or two pimple come out now, and my skin is all evenly toned!! Its amazing, thank you for sharing! My acne from 8 years went away in 2 weeks. I had tried everything, medication, all different types of creams, but nothing worked.

Do you have any recommendation for acne marks? How can I get rid of them? I also have acne on my back, shoulders, and arms... if there is any way to get rid of those could you please tell me? Thanks sooo much!
