Cucumber is a key ingredient for many home beauty treatments. With its nourishing, hydrating, and astringent properties it works wonders for your skin. It also soothes, brightens and tightens it. Cucumber has the same pH as your skin so it acts as a natural restorer of the acid mantle(the body's natural protective layer of oil)

   2. one teaspoon yogurt

Place 3 or 4 strawberries in a small bowl and mesh them with a fork. Then add the yogurt and stir. Apply the mixture and leave it on for 15 minutes. Rinse with warm water.

Strawberry is loaded with vitamins, antioxidants and has antibacterial properties. Its salicylic acid is a good combatant for acne and blackheads. It also has antiseptic and lightening properties.
