The face is full of black spots. Make-up does not cover it, resulting in inferiority complex. Even after using several types of artificial cosmetics, the results are not the same. In such a situation, you can try Athiya Shetty's home makeup tricks. For this, the question of spending heaps of money does not arise, but rather a very common kitchen ingredient is needed.
Rice water- This ingredient is useful in cosmetic procedures, may be more or less known to many. Sunilkanya Athiya recently appeared in a podcast. Talking about her skincare routine there, Athiya said that she also has pigmentation problems. That is, the face is filled with uneven black patches. It cannot be covered with any cosmetics. Only exfoliating from within will give you clean, smooth skin.
Athiya said that after cooking rice at home, she saves the leftover water and keeps it in the fridge. Then spray it on the face.
What is rice water?
According to dermatologists, rice water is the starchy water obtained by soaking or washing raw rice. It contains vitamins, amino acids, minerals and antioxidants. This water can be used directly. Some people use it after fermenting it for a few days.
According to experts, certain antioxidants present in rice water soothe the skin. Skin glows from within with regular use.
How to use?
It is better to use rice water for a short period of time instead of keeping it on the face overnight. You can apply it on your face like a toner and leave it for 10-15 minutes and wash it off with plain water.
But before use, it should be seen whether the rice water is properly prepared and stored. It does not contain any added preservatives, so if left for a long time, it can grow bacteria. So it is better to use fresh rice water. If kept in a separate refrigerator, the container or bottle should be cleaned regularly. Even then it should not be left for more than a week.
Use of rice water on sensitive skin may cause irritation or allergy. So first a patch test should be done on a small area of skin. And if the skin spots or pigmentation is for a long time, it is better to consult an expert instead of home remedies.
