We love the avocado in these masks because it helps to moisturize and rejuvenate your hair and skin. The healthy fats act as an all-natural and super hydrating moisturizer. And let’s not forget about the apple cider vinegar (one of our favorite elixirs). You might remember us talking about the benefits of apple cider vinegar here on LaurenConrad.com last month. Not only is it good for your body, it’s great for your hair. It closes the cuticles, allowing your locks to lay flat for shinier hair that’s easy to style.

Spirulina Uses And Benefits

Spirulina is a natural “algae” (cyanbacteria) powder that is incredibly high in protein and a good source of antioxidants, B-vitamins and other nutrients. When harvested correctly from non-contaminated ponds and bodies of water, it is one of the most potent nutrient sources available. 

It is largely made up of protein and essential amino acids, and is typically recommended to vegetarians for its high natural iron content. It is often touted for its high B-12 content, though there is a lot of debate about if this particular form is a complete and absorbable form of B-12 and I don’t recommend it completely in place of animal products.

5 Ways to Get Rid Of Pimples Acne Easily

The temptation of picking, rubbing, touching and pressing your pimples runs the risk of spreading the bacteria on your skin which ultimately condones scarring and more breakouts on your skin. If you're prone to acne and wear makeup, use oil-free makeup. This is better because it won't clog up your pores as badly as other types of makeup will. Always be sure to remember to wash your face every night before you go to bed.

Fresh Lemon Juice: Daily application of fresh lemon juice (3-4 drops) on the acne scars can also help to clear this skin problem as early as possible. For severe acne scars, application of lemon juice may only lighten the scar, and might not remove it entirely. Combining this treatment option with other treatment options might be more effective to treat deep scarring caused by severe acne.

Honey & Cinnamon: Honey has the ability to provide clear, glowing skin, while cinnamon helps in eradicating pimples. Make a paste of the two and apply it on the affected area just before sleeping. Allow it to remain overnight, and wash your face the next morning.

Cucumber Facial:  Simply grate cucumber and apply it on your face regularly. This on of those home remedies for pimples, remedy that will prevent any future outbursts of pimples, blackheads, and will also keep the skin moisturized.

Cloves Yogurt Mask: Dry roast some cloves in a pan and add to a little yogurt to make a thick paste. Apply this paste on the pimples, allowing it to dry and then wash it off. The cloves help dry up the pimples and this remedy is especially effective for people with oily skin.

Vitamins: Vitamins are some of the best nutrients your body can digest. Beans and peanuts will give you a healthy dose of vitamins B5 and B6, and wheat foods are prime for folic acid. Eat plenty of whole-wheat bread, lentils, black-eyed peas, pinto beans, sunflower seeds, asparagus and spinach. Peppers, sweet potatoes, broccoli, dandelion greens, beet greens, mangoes and papayas will give you more than enough vitamin E. And parsley, cauliflower, strawberries, grapefruit, kiwi, oranges, cantaloupe, tomato, watermelon, cranberries, chili peppers and onions make it easy for you to take in a healthy level of vitamin C every day.

Health Herbs For Your Skin

The alternative to these problems are to utilize all natural beauty techniques, which include using foods and herbs found naturally in the environment to treat your skin problems. Herbs have been used for countless decades to treat all types of ailments. Although it is possible to have an allergy to a specific herb, it is much less common to have an allergy to something natural than to something made in a lab. 

This is because our bodies don't recognize man-made elements and as such, it attacks them. This is what an allergic reaction is – our body reacting to what it thinks is an intruder. For this reason, it's usually a good idea to opt for something natural when you're able to, which is why we're covering the four best herbs for your skin today.
