And if you are reading this then I am sure you would be curious to know how to make your skin glow. Those expensive products can give you a great look temporarily but won’t be helpful for a long run. If you want a healthy-looking skin always, stick to only natural tricks. I believe in safe, organic and no-side-effect tips. Keeping this factor in mind, here are some things to note from this article.

How To Get Glowing Skin Naturally?

Pollution, sun-rays and busy schedules are the reasons why your skin is losing its glow day by day. You need to care every single day to retain its natural glow, fairness and moisture. Now, you don’t have to spend dollars and dollars on those expensive products to make your skin look beautiful and radiant. These work only for the time being. If you naturally want to possess a healthy skin, you need to follow few things in your everyday beauty regime. The tips listed here can bring back your skin’s lost charm & glow.

Since the below listed tips are 100% natural, it takes some time. So, don’t anticipate the process to be instant or overnight. Keep applying on a regular basis and you are sure to see best results.

1. Exfoliate Gently

Exfoliation helps in removing dead cells, excess oil and impurities from your skin. And after scrubbing your face, don’t forget to use a good quality cleanser. Massage in circular movements for some time but don’t be vigorous. Doing this gently promotes blood flow and eliminates excess sebum. Most cleansers will have few ingredients or exfoliating beads that lets you achieve both tasks simultaneously. Just stay away from using cleansers that incorporate drying agents like deodorants, fragrances or colors. Also, avoid “antibacterial” cleansers. Finally, take a cotton ball and dab some toner. Apply on your face gently until there is no dirt.

2. Oats

One of the best ways to make your skin glow naturally is by using “oats”. This natural scrubber enhances fairness, smoothness and shine. Take ½-cup oats & pour some warm water into it. Keep it aside for 5 to 7 minutes. Water helps this turn into a thick paste. Mix it well and apply onto your face. Rub it gently and massage using your fingers. Concentrate more on your nose in order to eliminate blackheads. Wash with cold water. Doing this thrice a week can help you achieve a glowing skin much faster.

3. Always Use A High Quality Moisturizer

Now, just because you have an oily skin, doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t use a moisturizer. No matter what your skin type, a moisturizer is mandatory in your everyday regime. If you are serious about making your skin glow naturally, make sure to use a moisturizer that contains natural oils like almond or rosemary. Use it right after your bath and before bedtime. This will keep your skin 100% nourished and healthy always. It gives that dewy look. Buy a moisturizer that is of SPF 15. This prevents premature aging and sun damage. Look for a moisturizer that contains humectants like propylene glycol, urea or glycerin. Also pay attention to AHAs (alpha-hydroxy acids). These are proven to decrease dryness, wrinkles, age spots and acne. It is equally important to use a moisturizer according to seasons. During summers, use a milder one while in winter, it has to something thick or heavy.

4. Use Papaya

If you ask me how to make your skin glow with a very effective natural ingredient, then I would suggest “papaya”. It naturally makes your skin beautiful. If you have a tanned skin, trust me, it works like a wonder. Just mash its pulp but make sure it is ripe. Apply it directly on your skin and leave it for 15 minutes. Wash off with cold water. Do this every day to see a glowing skin much faster. If you want, you can even add lemon juice, turmeric powder, gram flour and yogurt for best results.

5. Steaming

If there is something that can enhance your skin’s look, then it is “steaming”. It opens clogged pores & removes dead cells. It is simple. Just boil some water and pour it into a kettle. Have your face covered with a towel, over the water. Let the steam encounter your skin. If you want, you can even add few herbs or essential oils into it. Right after steaming, apply a homemade face pack.

6. Never Take Long Hot Shower

Yes, this is something that relaxes you and you will want to be there showering all the time but this isn’t good for your skin. Hot water easily strips that natural glow and moisture. Limit your hot showers to ten minutes, especially during winters. Use lukewarm water instead.

7. Apply A Homemade Face Pack Once A Week

To learn how to make your face glow, this is something you should be doing. Make a homemade face pack and apply it at least once in a week. Here are few ways to make:

• Combine 2-tbsp mashed avocados, ½-teaspoon olive oil, ¼ cup whip cream & 1-teaspoon calendula petals. Mix everything properly and apply it on your face. Leave for 20 minutes and rinse off.
• Whisk 1-tbsp fresh plain yogurt along with some sesame oil. Apply this mixture on your face, neck, upper chest and throat. Leave for 20 minutes and wash off.
• Mash a ripe banana with few drops of honey. Apply it on your skin and leave for 15 minutes. Wash off with cold water
• Peel 1 mango & mash its pulp. Apply this directly onto your face & leave for few minutes. This will clean as well as tighten your skin pores.

8.Olive Oil

Massaging your skin with olive oil is a great way to nourish. In fact, it rejuvenates it deeply. Just take some drops of it and massage your cheekbones, hands and legs. Leave it for a while and have a hot shower. This gives a great glow instantly. You can even replace olive oil with jojoba or coconut oil.

9. Fuller’s Earth

This ingredient is no exception. Just mix fuller’s earth with water in appropriate quantities. Apply the paste on your face and leave for about 10 minutes. Do not let it dry. Wash off when it is wet. This gives an instant glow.

10. Sandalwood Powder

Yet another great tip on how to make skin glow is none other than using sandalwood powder. Just take 2-tbsp sandalwood powder & add few drops of rose water into it so that it forms a fine smooth paste. Apply and leave onto your face for 15 minutes. Wash with cold water & pat dry. Don’t forget to apply a moisturizer.
