Beauty remedies to fight this Summer’s heat wave
First things first – Watch your diet!
Remember to avoid rich gravies, fried snacks, starchy food, alcohol and soft drinks.
Instead, drink buttermilk, tender coconut water and fresh fruit juices (musk melon, watermelon, lemonade, etc)

Besides maintaining a light diet, here are some easy beauty tips for girls that can help you cure your summer woes.
1. Burning Hands and Feet
Rub bitter gourd slices on the soles of your feet and the palms of your hand.

2. Burning Eyes
Keep used tea bags in the freezer and place them on your eyes for a few minutes and relax. Rose water pads and cucumber slices are also very highly effective.

3. For Fresh Looking Skin
Store fresh rosewater in the fridge at all times and spritz your face and neck with this several times in a day.
Never throw away watermelon peels; in fact just keep them in your freezer and rub them whenever you get back from outdoors. Not only will it help cool the skin but also provide natural AHA’s and make the skin soft and well hydrated.

4. Open Pores
To prevent this, just put a couple of slices of raw tomatoes in the freezer and then place them on your skin for it to absorb the juice. Rub gently into the skin and feel the tautness.

(lel! :D)
5. Scalp Problems
This could well be due to the sudden heat wave and the best way to treat this is to rinse the hair with neem water.
The rinse can be made by boiling a handful of neem leaves in one litre of water and letting it cool.
After shampooing, rinse the hair with this mix.

6. Body Odour
Avoid synthetic material and stick to cool cottons. Linen also works well. Avoid tight fitting clothes and weave your day around loose and airy fits to keep your cool.
Try and bathe twice a day and add a few drops of essential oil such as lime, geranium, bergamot and lemon to your last rinse of bathing water.

Keep following these steps this summer and no sooner than you know, you would be feeling as cool as a cucumber!
