Talking about skincare ingredients that can be sourced right from a hands reach today let’s get to know the ingredients in I that give you the perfect skin.
Ice
Most skincare experts when sought for skincare issues advice on drinking up enough water. Now why would that be a common advice? Drinking enough water helps flush out toxins from the body which is the major cause of many issues.
Frozen water or ice has multiple benefits to skincare. Surprised ?? It helps boost blood circulation and also aid skincare products used to show better results. Now let’s take a look at how this wonder ingredient in your freezer makes your skin glow. You could use this magic ingredient once a day on face and neck and notice the change.
Keeps acne in check
Acne could lead to redness and itching. Sometimes it could lead to inflammation that causes pain. Ice cubes help in making the pain subside. On continuous usage it could show good improvement on skin.
Reduce eyebags and puffy eyes
Wrap ice cubes in a cloth and then apply under the eyes. This is similar to how ice alleviates swelling. The under eye skin is delicate so take care not to have prolonged massage with ice cubes.
Ease waxing pains and discomfort
Ice cubes helps in easing the pains and discomfort post waxing or threading. The area usually appears red and sensitive. An ice cubes massage definitely helps in healing it.
Reduce pores
Post cleansing ice cubes can be wrapped in a cloth and used for massaging the skin on face. This helps in reducing the pore size and also sweating. Doing this massage also adds glow to skin.
Keeping foundation intact
Post cleansing and toning with an astringent, massage your face with a wrap cloth that has ice cubes. This will make your foundation last longer. You can thank me later for long lasting make up.
Reduce signs of ageing
Regular usage of applying ice cubes on face also helps in reducing signs of ageing. This is because the ice cubes help in boosting blood circulation which help the anti aging products to work better on skin.Since it also reduces pore size it helps prevent fine lines as well.
Remove facial hair
Applying ice and then using a facial scrub to remove facial hair could work when done over a longer period of time but could guarantee permanent results.
You could also use variety of ingredients in your ice cube to improve the benefits.
Aloe vera– for dry and dehydrated skin.
Rose water – for healing inflammation and rashes
Green tea – for antioxidant boost
Milk cubes– for firm cheekbones and contouring effect.
Ice apple
The summer fruit known as ice apple, tadgola is rich in vitamin, iron, minerals and calcium.
It’s an excellent coolant and great for cooling down the body heat naturally.
It is loaded with calcium, phosphorus and has antiinflammatory and antioxidant properties. It is great to heal rashes in summer.
Applying the flesh of ice apple.over rashes and prickly heat helps in soothing the area and relieves itching.
It slows down the process of ageing and due to the presence of photochemical which possess antioxidant properties.

Have been using ice for skincare but the idea of using aloe vera, rose water, and green tea sounds cool, particularly in summer. Never knew ice apple can also be used to relieve itching and rashes.
