Pineapple for the skin!
Avoid over the counter astringents with alcohol content–they’re drying. Some of the best skin care methods are homemade and natural. And, it makes sense! It’s really quite logical to assume that items available in nature, when carefully selected, will yield the most natural results.
Two of the simplest and most effective methods of cleaning and toning the skin involve strawberries and pineapples!
Strawberries
Mash 3 fresh or 3 thawed frozen strawberries in a bowl, and apply to clean face, rubbing in a gentle circular motion. Leave the mask on for approximately 10-15 minutes, and then rinse.
Pineapples
Pineapples contain an enzyme (bromelain) that breaks down dead skin cells. Simply use a chunk of fresh or canned pineapple and lightly rub over your clean face. Leave on for about 10 minutes. You’ll feel your skin tightening and tingling as the pineapple juice works. After this mask treatment, skin is temporarily a little pink. Skin glows–it looks and feels refreshed. The pineapple juice also acts to tighten pores.
For people with dry skin, follow the treatment with a small amount of olive oil applied directly to the skin.
