The skin reflects your health, and thus indirectly your diet, lifestyle and habits. In order to improve your skin tone and colour, you should lead a healthy lifestyle, devoid of unnecessary stress, with a regular exercise routine and a balanced diet rich in vitamins, minerals and fibres. In addition to your regular intake of whole grain cereals, proteins and fats, a cupful of fruits and vegetables or a glass of juice of the Colour Diet is beneficial to improve the skin.
This diet involves an amalgamation of various foods in different colours: Red/Purple (brinjals, berries, grapes, apples, beetroot, red cabbage and red peppers), Red/Pink (tomatoes, guava, pink grapefruit), Orange (apricots, oranges, mango, pumpkin, muskmelon), Orange/Yellow (papaya, pineapple, sweet lime, tangerines), Yellow/Green (avocado, mustard, cucumber, green peas, lettuce, spinach), Green (broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower) and White Green (mushrooms, asparagus, celery, leeks, spring onions).
Turmeric is very beneficial for the skin and should be applied regularly to the skin to improve the skin tone and colour. Daily application of a paste of turmeric powder and lemon juice or cucumber juice helps to improve the skin colour, as well prevent pimples and boils.
You can also prepare a wonderful body scrub by mixing turmeric powder and gram flour with some milk and water. Scrub your body with this natural scrub to improve your skin tone and texture. A regular scrub exfoliates the dead skin cells and layer of dirt accumulated on your skin, automatically working wonders for the appearance of your skin. You should try using natural products for your scrub, since they also have healing properties and prevent skin conditions and problems. You can make an excellent scrub using oatmeal and milk or curds. Fill this in a small pouch made with a loofah scrub or a muslin bag and scrub your body using this after soaking it in water. You can also use sugar and lime to make a pack that lightens your skin colour.
