How To Make Your Own Organic Beauty Treatments Using Milk

Are you aware that milk is a fantastic skincare ingredient? That's right; this ancient beauty secret is rich in AHAs (alpha-hydroxy acids), which promote exfoliation. In addition, lactic acid, a natural skin exfoliant. It's also a fantastic anti-inflammatory.

Milk also consists of high levels of Vitamin A, D, and E. So seeing as this wonder ingredient is probably sitting in your fridge already, why don't you give a few of these recipes a whirl:

This gentle Oatmeal Cleanser is an excellent alternative to harsh soap.

Directions:
Mix all of the parts for at least 2 minutes. The mixture should have a creamy consistency. Then, with a funnel, pour the mixture into an air-tight container. Store in the refrigerator.
To use: Place a small amount in the palm of your hand, then gently massage it into your skin. Use lukewarm water to rinse and pat dry.

Blend the ingredients for about 2 minutes. A thick paste should form.
Next, massage a small amount on a freshly washed face for about a minute. Rinse with lukewarm water and dab dry.

Nail Strengthener

• 1 cup of organic milk
• microwave-safe bowl

Place the liquid in the bowl and heat it on high for 30 seconds in your microwave. Make sure that it does not boil/burn (you'll notice a funky smell). It should smell sweet and be warm to the touch.
After washing your hands, dry them off with a towel and place your fingers/hands in the bowl of milk. Leave them there for 5 minutes.

After you finish, your nails will be stronger. They will look beautiful, glossy, and your hands will be softer.
