Things no one tells you about home remedies

Here are a few things about home remedies which no one tells you:

✅Only moisturises or gently exfoliates
These are the two things home remedies do. They will help in moisturising the skin if you use ingredients with diary products or high oil content.
Gentle exfoliation is caused by mild acids that are present in home remedy ingredients

✅Ingredients too mild to show effect
Even though we know vitamin C is beneficial, using fruits with vitamin C on the face will not show same effects as the active ingredients present in a low concentration to show any effect

✅Can irritate even if natural
Home remedies may appear as harmless but ingredients like orange peel, lemon, baking soda can cause burns on the skin.

✅Results are temporary
They will not show any lasting effects on the skin. As most of the results are due to moisturising effect , the brightening that you notice immediate a home remedy lasts just a day at max.

✅Use as relaxation and not as treatment
Home remedies are easily available and can be used but look at it more as relaxation, some me-time which may also be good for skin. Dont rely on it to treat or correct your underlying skin concern.
