Here is a list of Thai beauty secrets.
1. Tamarind:
Tamarind has great beauty benefits due to its rich vitamin and mineral content. This Thai ingredient can help you as a great beauty product, reducing your beauty expenses.
One of the best ways to use tamarind is to make a pure organic paste and use it as a facial scrub to exfoliate the skin. This makes your skin soft. Alpha-hydroxyl acids (AHAs) in the tamarind help reduce all the blemishes and dark spots, resulting in brighter and more youthful looking skin.
The highly acidic tamarind makes a great formula for skin brightening and lightening. A simple recipe of tamarind cleanser is – one cup of honey and tamarind paste with three tablespoons of yoghurt. Gently apply it all over your face, avoiding the delicate eye area and wash it off after 10 minutes. It is perfect for cleansing and removing all the dead skin cells and helps boosting blood circulation.
2. Papaya:
Thai beauties use the highly nutritious papaya as a great beauty agent. Papaya contains the miracle papain enzyme which works effectively to banish all dullness from your face and gives a radiant glow. The enzymes in papaya also work as cleansers, banishing all the dead skin cells from the skin.
A simple body polish of papaya can be easily made by peeling the outer skin of papaya and mashing it into a nice pulp. Massage it to your face and body. Follow up with a shower for happy skin.
