5 Skin tricks you can find in your fridge


1. Apple Juice- Use an ice cube tray to create apple juice ice cubes. The malic acid in the juice is a natural alpha hydroxy acid that is anti-aging. Glide the ice cube over your skin. The skin is instantly tighter and firmer.

2. Strawberries- Strawberries are rich in salicylic acid, which is a common ingredient found in most acne creams. Strawberries also help lighten pigmentation on the skin overtime. Cut a strawberries in half and poke it with a small fork. Glide the strawberry over cleansed skin twice a week and leave the juice on your skin for 20 min.

3. Sour Cream- Twice a week apply a tablespoon of sour cream to sensitive skin for 20 min. It will nourish the skin and the natural lactic acid gently smooths skin texture.

4. Avocado- smash an avocado and apply to skin for 15 min once a week as a hydrating mask.

5. Olive Oil- Olive oil is a great moisturizer. Apply a pea size amount to cleansed skin and follow with moisturzer. Avoid this if you are acne prone.
