Homemade Beauty Remedies and Treatments

Homemade remedies and treatments are similar to beauty recipes, but target a specific problem. For example, homemade remedies for acne use household products to get rid of the pimples. A pimple recipe using toothpaste puts the paste directly on a zit for as a spot treatment to shrink acne. Only use the white, pasty type toothpaste for acne rather than gel toothpastes. Other remedies are designed to remove wrinkles, such as a banana mask. To fight wrinkles with banana, mash a banana until all of the lumps are gone and it becomes creamy. Apply the banana directly to the skin and allow it to sit for about 20 minutes before rinsing with warm water. The banana helps firm up skin and minimizes wrinkles.
