My Opinion: - All of us know the need of body lotions in the cold dry months, and it was in February that I received Parachute Advansed Body Lotions- Dry Skin Intense Care & All Season Gentle Care. Immediately I started using the Dry Skin Intense Care Lotion as my limbs turn very dry in the winters. And upon the very first application, I was so happy as my skin absorbed the lotion and looked so normal :P No I am not kidding, really it made that much of a difference. So in short if I have to review this lotion, it is amazing :D

                   This white body lotion is thick in consistency, somewhere in between a cream and a lotion. It’s very creamy but not greasy at all. It gives heavy moisturization but feels light on the skin. But the fragrance is not up to my liking, it is herbal scented but nothing like coconut or coconut oil. Girls with sensitive noses stay away or take a whiff before investing in this lotion. The packaging is unique and so beautiful, the mint colored bottle looks like the torso of a curvaceous woman. It comes with a flip open lid which clicks shuts tight; hence it’s perfect for traveling.

                    I had applied this lotion twice daily from the day I received it in Feb till a few days back when I finished it. It made my skin soft and smooth; also this lotion gave relief from dryness to quite an extent. It moisturized my skin well and gave my arms & legs and my full body much needed nourishment. A few pumps are all that is needed to apply all over arms, legs & body. It gets absorbed very quickly and spreads easily, which saves time for rubbing/massaging the lotion into the skin. This lotion is not greasy and sticky and that’s the reason I loved it so much. The only problem I had with this lotion is that it does not contain SPF, so I have to slather on an additional sunscreen. Also it needs to be reapplied every 3 hours in my case.

Pros: -

• Spreads easily & gets absorbed quickly, so I don’t have to waste 10-15 mins
• Highly moisturizing, cared well for my dry legs & arms
• A little goes a long way as not much product is required for each use
• Very affordable at Rs 99 for 250 ml
• Interesting packaging, bottle shape is similar to the torso of a woman and its travel friendly as well
• Non-sticky & non-greasy

Cons:-

• Fragrance is not good, I personally didn’t like it
• Does not contain SPF
• Contains Parabens and Carbomer
• Don’t think it will work on very dry, parched & flaky skin

                                 I rate this Parachute Advansed Body Lotion for Dry Skin 4.25 out of 5, minus 0.75 for the cons. It’s a must buy for people with dry winter skin, I shall buy another one in the next winters but for now my limbs have turned normal with the advent of summer, so I am using Parachute Advansed Body Lotion for All Season since 10-15 days or more. Shall come up with the review very soon. Till then hope you enjoyed reading this post and leave behind your lovely comments. Thank you and do have a good day ahead.

               For Glowing Complexion:- Grind half a cup of yellow mustard seeds adding a little water in it, also throw in a few rose petals in it. Apply on your face, neck, nape, arms and legs or your entire body as you wish. Leave it on for 20 mins and wash off.

               For Dry Skin:- Massage fresh milk cream gently on the face and neck. It will nourish dry skin and will remove dead flaky skin. If done everyday, you will never grow old. It will preserve fine textured, soft skin.

              Removing Wrinkles:- Apply a paste of gramflour and raw milk on your face and neck. Wash off when it dries. After a couple of weeks you will find much improvement.

Soak 10-20 gms of dried amla (Indian Gooseberry) in 1/4th cup of water.Churn the mixture after half an hour and then apply on your face and neck. Wash off after 15 mins. You will find remarkable results.

              Curing Pimples:- Clean face with a cotton soaked in rosewater. Apply a mixture of turmeric and sandalwood powders on your face. This will not only remove the pimples but also brighten and soften your skin.

             To Get Rid Of  Dandruff:- Take a bowl of curd and leave it open for 3 days. After 3 days apply all over scalp and leave it on for 20 mins. Repeat this treatment for 2-3 days continuously for favorable results.

             For Cleaning Sparkling Teeth:- Burn rice husk on a griddle till it is reduced to ashes. Sieve it and store in a small jar and use as a dental powder.

              The onset of winter is a season when we are supposed to be healthy, beautiful but at the same time cold and dry weather affects the skin. During this season we have to pay extra attention to skin. Skin becomes dry giving birth to so many skin diseases.

                     
              Always use tepid water for washing your face. Do not use astringents during winter otherwise your skin will become drier. Moisturiser should be used during the winter season. Also use natural homemade products as much as possible for maintaining the glowing complexion and overall beauty.

                      
              Today I brought for you a few homemade moisturising face masks that are beneficial for winter use.

                    
              Curd Mask:- Mix 1 tspn each of curd, honey and almond oil and apply on your face and neck. Leave it on for atleast 20 mins and wash off with tepid water.

                      
             Egg mask:- Mix together the yolk of an egg and 1 tbspn of almond oil. Apply all over face and neck thickly and leave it on 20 mins. Then wash it off with tepid water.

             Honey Mask:- Mix together 1 tbspn of honey, 2 tbspn of egg white, 1 tspn of olive oil and a few drops of rose oil. Apply this mixture on your face and neck and leave it on for 20 mins. Wash it off with tepid water.

                      
             Milk Mask:- This is one of the simplest and cheapest mask which is also very effective. Dampen a cotton ball in raw milk and apply on your face and neck. Leave it on for 15 mins and wash off with warm water.

                     
            Strawberry Mask:- Mash up four strawberries and apply on your face. Leave it on for 15 mins and wash it off with tepid water. You will find the skin clean and sparkling.

Apply a mask on your mask at least thrice a week. Masks are one of the oldest beautifying treatments.

                      
            Always use a cold cream or nourishing cream suited to your skin all throughout the winters. Your skin will become soft and supple with just a little care.

            This post is for all those who had requested for dry skin face packs. Sorry for taking this long to come up with  these but now that I have these packs for dry skin, hope you all will be happy.

            Hi Beauties, Winter is just round the corner. It brings with it the festive season and weddings of course. Therefore it can be understood how important it is to look your best during this time. But alongside it brings dryness, both of skin and hair. So this winter let's not panic and work our way towards a moist and dewy complexion.



* Twice a week internally take a tbsp of raw turmeric juice. Also make a paste with 1 tsp fresh milk cream and 1 tsp raw turmeric juice, apply it on your face and neck. Wash off with tepid water after 10-15 mins. This paste can be on your entire body including hands and legs. It makes the skin smooth and satiny. Better done at nights before hitting the bed.



* Grate a carrot and add to it a little raw milk if you have normal or oily skin or add milk cream if you have dry skin, now use it on your face and neck for 15 mins. Wash off with tepid water. This will reduce dryness as well as roughness of your skin if done twice or thrice a week.



* Take 1 tbsp of cucumber juice, 2 drops of lemon juice and mix it well. Now apply it on your face and neck with a cotton pad soaked in it. Leave on for 30 mins and wash off, done regularly your skin will acquire a glow.


* Take 1 tsp olive oil and add to the white of an egg, beat well and apply on face and neck. When it feels dry, wash off with warm water and sprinkle your face and neck with cool water. This pack can be used 3 times a week and can be stored in the fridge for a few days.

              

























* For mellowed skin, before taking your bath use on your face and neck a mixture of 1 tsp honey and a few drops of lemon juice. Keep it on for 15 mins and wash off with warm water.



* Treat your whole body with a paste made of 1 tbsp each gram-flour and milk cream. Also add a little turmeric paste to it and apply on your face, neck and full body. Keep it on for 15-20 mins and bathe.



* Massage your body regularly with either mustard oil or almond oil before taking bath. It will make the skin smooth and glowing. Its better not to use a soap on dry skin but instead use those moisturising body washes available at beauty stores.



* Every night before hitting the bed massage the face and neck with a good quality massage cream and add a drop of lemon juice to it if you have oily skin. Also instead of massaging cream a mixture of fresh milk cream and a few drops of lemon juice can be used to massage your face and neck.



* Not to forget your feet, every night soak your feet in basin of warm water. Add to it a little foot/pedicure shampoo. After a few mins brush off the dead skin on the heels, clean nails also. Now take another basin of warm water and add to it a few drops of mustard oil or olive oil. Dip feet in it for sometimes. Take out and dry with a towel properly. Rub in a rich foot cream and give a gentle massage, wear socks and jump into bed. Vaseline can well be used instead of foot cream.


Just set aside a little time for yourself and pamper your skin this winter. Drink lots of water to keep yourself well hydrated.
