Day One of Your Beauty Crash Course
Facial cleansing routine: Crush a few fresh strawberries (what you’re having for breakfast). Mash the strawberries into a pulp like texture. Facial and neck skin in touch your face and neck. Let it stay on your skin for 10 minutes or more and rinse with warm water.
For breakfast eat as many fresh strawberries as you like. The organic variety is most preferred as the non-organic versions are high in pesticide residues. If you can’t find organic (or are on a tight budget), then look for local farmers markets to buy your strawberries from . Be sure to eat strawberries alone. It is also critical to wait 2 hours or more before eating other foods of the day. Eating strawberries (alone) helps your skin appear fairer because of the high dose of vitamin C content. Vitamin C in berries can be absorbed more efficiently by the body if eaten alone than with other foods or fruits. Using strawberries externally will exfoliate and cleanse the skin.
An additional benefit is that vitamin C is absorbed into the skin. Since these berries are super high in vitamin C, the high concentration of vitamin C will be absorbed into your skin! Forget about those expensive Vitamin C sprays on the market—the Vitamin C will stay absorbed into your skin (and wash off after you) for up to four days! And yes, use your regular facial skincare products as you wish (follow the instructions).
Day Two of Your Beauty Crash Course
Facial cleansing exercises: Mix about 2 teaspoons of lemon juice with warm water and wash your face with the mixture. Do not take lemon juice in your mouth. Immerse yourself in cold water. This practice helps clear your complexion.
Breakfast: Eat as many blueberries as you want for breakfast.
These are best to buy organic as the berries are high in pesticide residues. You can buy frozen organic blueberries; They are attractive in price and can be kept for a long time. Wait 2 hours or more before eating anything else. This is optional, but if you want instant lighter, brighter, and softer skin, this is a very useful trick to try: At night, before going to bed, apply honey to the skin of your face and neck. Wait for about 25 minutes before washing it off with cold water.
Day Three of Your Beauty Crash Course
Facial cleansing routine: Ripe banana. Rub all over your face and neck. Use upward circular motions to thoroughly rub the banana material into your skin. Leave it on your skin for three minutes or so, and wash it off with cold water. Make sure you don’t get the banana thing inside your mouth.
Breakfast: Eat as many cherries as you want. These are probably cheaper and better to buy frozen (preferably organic). Eat them alone and wait 2 hours (or more) before eating other foods. Night exercises: If you have acne, peel a tomato. Rub the contents over your face and neck. After 10 minutes or so, turn on the washcloth inside.
