Shahnaz Husain Q&A
Frequently asked questions answered by the Beauty Icon
Q1. I am getting white scales after I have a bath and rub my skin with a towel. How to get rid of it?
This could be due to dryness of the skin. However, if there is any itching, it should be referred to a dermatologist first. Apply til oil daily before bath and massage it on the skin. Use a mild glycerine soap. Immediately after bath, apply a body lotion while the skin is still damp. This helps to seal in moisture.
Q2. I have combination skin and also have lots of blackhead on my nose.
Blackheads occur on oily areas of the skin. After washing the face in the morning, wipe the blackhead prone areas with an astringent lotion, using cotton wool. In the morning after washing the face, make a paste of baking soda and water. Apply the paste on the area and wash after 5 minutes. Use a facial scrub three times a week on the blackhead prone areas.
Q3. I have oily skin. Pimples and dark spots are increasing. Please help me to get a clear face.
Wash your face twice a day, morning and night with a medicated soap or anti-pimple face wash. Then wipe with astringent lotion, using cotton wool. Mix a little rose water with sandalwood paste and apply on the face. Wash after 15 minutes. Mix cinnamon (dalchini) powder with a little lemon juice and a few drops of honey into a sticky paste. Apply only on the pimples daily and leave it on for one or two hours. Mix multani mitti with rose water and lemon juice into a paste and apply on the face two or three times a week. Wash it off when it dries. Use only oil-free products. Drink 6 to 8 glasses of water daily. Add the juice of a lemon to a glass of water and drink it first thing in the morning.
Q4. How can I make my tanned skin fairer?
Use a facial scrub twice a week. Apply on the face and rub gently on the skin using small circular movements. Leave on for 5 minutes and then wash off with water. Mix one teaspoon each of honey and lemon juice and apply daily on the face, at any time. Wash off after 20 minutes. Twice a week, apply face mask. Mix 3 teaspoons oats with one teaspoon each of honey, curd and lemon juice, or egg white. Apply on the entire face, avoiding the lips and area around eyes. Wash it off after half an hour.
