1. Honey

Honey or Shahad is a great addition to an ideal skincare routine. Raw honey is a wonderful remedy for acne treatment because it balances the bacteria on your skin. It is also a great ingredient for skin care because it contains antimicrobial, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties that promote skin health.

2. Green Tea

Green tea is one of the most common beverages enjoyed across the world. Green tea consists of vitamin E, which is known to promote nourishment and hydration of the skin. The polyphenols in green tea can be effective in treating skin cancers, and the green tea extracts can potentially prevent acne and pimples. According to Dr Gupta, the calming effects and antioxidants of green tea can soothe and protect sensitive and acne-prone skin.

3. Avocado

Avocado is a nutritional powerhouse and includes vital nutrients that not only promote better health but also keep skincare problems at bay. They are induced with skin-boosting properties that can be effective to treat dry skin, eczema, psoriasis and other skin conditions. Dr Gupta states that avocado is hydrating and nourishing and is perfect for dry skin, leaving it supple and radiant.

4. Yoghurt

Yoghurt is high in protein, vitamins, calcium, and probiotics that can provide immense health benefits. Eating yoghurt is extremely beneficial for health, but applying it over your face can have an abundance of benefits for your skin. Dr Gupta shares that yoghurt is rich in probiotics and gently exfoliates and brightens the skin, catering to combination and acne-prone skin.

5. Cucumber

The high water content of cucumber makes it a hydrating addition to DIY skin treatments as well as being generally safe for sensitive skin due to its lack of harsh, potentially irritating ingredients. The high water content of cucumber soothes the skin and keeps it hydrated and well-nourished. Dr Gupta says that cucumber soothes, hydrates, and cools the skin, making it a treat for all skin types, especially in hot weather.
