FRECKLES

Freckles are seen as dark colored spots on the skin. These may be more apparent on the facial skin, especially on or around the nose. Generally, light or fair skinned people are more prone to freckled skin. Freckles get more emphasized on exposure to sunlight.

There are two basic types of freckles:

Ephelides - These are flat red or light-brown spots that typically appear during the summer months and fade away in the winter. These types of freckles could be hereditary.

Leave the juice on your elbows for 15 minutes. Soak a clean towel in hot water, and scrub your elbows. Your elbows will lighten with time. You can also make a cream by combining � tsp. of lemon juice and � tsp. of glycerin. Apply the cream to your elbows nightly.

The herb turmeric can also remove black elbow stains. Mix a paste of 1 tbsp. of turmeric and three curry leaves in a small bowl. Apply the mixture to your elbows and let it sit for 15 minutes. Wash your elbows in warm water. If taking a bath, apply the mixture before you get in, let it sit for 15 minutes, and simply wash it off as you take your bath. You can also use Mehndi leaves in place of curry leaves. Mehndi and curry leaves are found in most international grocery stores and some health food stores.

CASTOR OIL IS THE SECRET INGREDIENT

Castor Oil applied to the eyelashes at night WILL make your eye lashes grow longer and thicker.

Some people will claim this is ridiculous, but they have neither tried it nor understand why it works.

The reason it works is that nearly nobody's eyelashes have grown to their maximum length and thickness. Castor oil just ensures that they grow all the way. My Outer lashes are now actually nearly a cm outside of my eyes to the left and to the right (Respectively for each eye) which means the whole look of my eyes is soooo much more improved and well from what people tell me.. 'sexy'. TRY IT. THIS WORKS.

HOW TO APPLY?

You need a clean mascara brush to put it on properly. Get a bottle of pure castor oil, this all you need.

Dip the brush into oil, and put it on your EYE LASHES and EYE BROWS just like you put on mascara.
