Your Refrigerator - Your Beauty Salon

Strolling through the mall the other day I came across an array of vendors peddling “natural” products to make my skin glow like a newborn baby again. Taking a closer look at the variety of offering available for my skin I noticed some key ingredients which lo! and behold I see in my refrigerator everyday. Hmmm...that got me wondering, when I have all this at my disposal why should I pay $50 for a cream which has apple extract in it when I could get a whole years supply of apple extract at home!

Let’s take the apple for instance. Take out some apple juice and pour a cup in your bathtub to make your skin nice and velvety, it even makes a surprising acne treatment. You can stop scratching your head because of that dandruff, just rinse your hair with some apple juice and say goodbye to those ugly white flakes snowing from your head!

Pick up a lemon and apply it over dark patches on the skin and see them fade away with regular application. Who can forget the fresh smell of a lemon, so be lemony fresh all day with just a rub here and a rub there of a slice of that beautiful yellow fruit.

Mash up that banana and put it all over your face just for twenty minutes and feel your skin transform into a marshmallow, all supple and smooth. Put some on your hair with a little honey and make people look twice at your radiant crown of glory.

The good old pineapple tastes so yummy. Spare some for your shower in the morning and use a slice instead of a loofah to rub away all the dead skin cells and smoothen out the prickly areas on your arms and legs.

No doubt about the fact that your body will be eternally grateful to you for your consumption of fruits but your skin will reward you amply with a little external application too.
