Dull skin is such a mood dampener when it comes to skincare. Even if your skin is clear, unless it is glowing and radiant, it makes you look tired and older than your age. Due to pollution, stress and bad lifestyle habits such as less sleep, smoking, drinking, and sitting in an air-conditioned environment for long hours, the skin loses its sheen and starts to look dull.
If you too have this problem, you can find the solution to it right in your kitchen cabinet. The pulp of tamarind is useful in bringing back your skin's lost glow. All you have to do is soak it in water for some time and mash it if required to get a gooey, paste-like consistency. Next, apply this on your face carefully avoiding the area around the eyes. Let it stay for a few minutes and then wash your face with water. Tamarind's pulp has antioxidants and vitamin B and C which will remove dead skin cells and other impurities in your skin and leave it feeling soft and glowing.
