Basic Tomato Scrub


Materials Required

* 1 Ripe Tomato
* Granulated Sugar
* Cutting Board
* Cutting Knife


Procedure

* Wash your face using a mild face-wash and remove any dirt or grime present on the surface of the skin.

* Take a large ripe tomato and wash it properly under running tap water.

* Get your cutting board ready and slice the top of the tomato with the cutting knife. The stem of the fruit can be used as a gripper and as a cleansing pad.

* In a platter, take a single spoon of granulated sugar and make a coating of sugar on the tomato, by dipping it in the same. Ensure that the coating is even and thorough.

* Use the tomato to make gentle rubbing movements all over the face. This will cause a mild exfoliation of the facial skin and remove the dead skin cells.

* Once the face is evenly coated with the tomato juice, wait for a period of about 10 minutes. After this, rinse off the tomato scrub with fresh cold water and pat your face dry, using a soft towel.


Tomato & Rice Scrub

Materials Required

* 4 Ripe Tomatoes
* Rice
* A Grinder


Procedure

* Soak some rice in water, for a period of about 30 minutes to 1 hour.

* Grind the soaked rice to a coarse paste, using the grinder.

* Wash the tomatoes properly under running tap water, to remove any grime or dirt on the surface. Cut them into fine pieces.

* Using a blender, make a paste of the chopped pieces, until a soft puree is achieved.

* In a mixing bowl, add together the rice and the tomato paste and gently massage it all over your face.

* Leave the paste on for a period of about 10 minutes or until it dries off moderately.

* Wash off using warm water.


Tomato & Wheat Husk Scrub

Materials Required

* 2 Ripe Tomatoes
* Wheat Husk
* Pure Honey


Procedure

* In a small bowl, place the ripe tomatoes and mash them into a fine paste, using a fork.

* To the mashed pulp, add the wheat husk and the honey, alternately, until a thick paste is formed. While adding the ingredients, check out for consistency of the paste. The mixture should neither have a watery consistency, nor be too hard.

* Massage the paste all over the face and even around the neck. This paste should be allowed to remain in place for about 10-15 minutes.

* Wash off using cool water and pat dry with a soft towel. Complete this skin care regime with your favorite moisturizer.
