Who doesn’t want beautiful, flawless and healthy skin? While few are blessed with naturally glowing skin, many of us restore to chemically treated skin creams, masks & treatments to achieve the same. Result: dull, dry, damaged & irritable skin in the long run.  

Natural skin remedies vs chemical laden products:

There’s no denying the fact that the results you get using easily available OTC skin products are temporary and they do more harm to your skin than good. They rob the skin of its natural pH balance and their regular use can give rise to problems like patchy skin, acne, pigmentation and uneven skin tone among others.

So what should you do if you want to get rid of skin problems without causing any damage to it? Try natural homemade skin remedies. Simple.

Using ingredients that are easily available in your kitchen not only eliminates the harm that chemicals present in factory ready products can cause but also proves to be an affordable and easy way to get clean, clear & glowing skin.

What makes sugarcane juice healthy for skin?

What if we told you achieving glowing skin was as easy as applying skin care remedies made at home using natural sugarcane juice! Yes, pure sugarcane juice is a blessing when it comes to getting blemish free, naturally glowing and soft skin. Its health benefits aside, the presence of minerals, vitamins & antioxidants in sugarcane juice goes a long way in keeping your skin healthy, glowing & problem-free.

  • Presence of antioxidants helps fight problems related to pre-mature ageing, fine lines & wrinkles
  • High levels of phyto-nutrients found in sugarcane juice reverses the sun damage on skin & prevents the harmful UV rays from causing pigmentation or uneven skin tone
  • As a good source of alpha hydroxyl acids (AHA), it helps in removal of free radicles, reduce accumulation of dead cells & keep skin pores unclogged
