Promotion of circulation, cell regeneration and hydrating is the essence to that natural facial glow.

Below are a few recipes that will give your face a natural glow:

Gentle Facial Exfoliate
1/2 cup oatmeal or cornmeal
Plain yogurt
Mix either the oatmeal or cornmeal and the yogurt to form a paste. With your fingertips and in an upward circular motion, gently massage the paste into your skin. Rinse with warm water and then apply a toner to restore pH balance and remove any traces of the mask. Finally apply a moisturizer.

Another alternative to the above recipe is to add cornmeal or oatmeal to your regular cleansing cream which gives an excellent exfoliation treatment.

Baking Soda is highly effective in reducing redness and cleaning pores. Combine equal parts baking soda and water to make a paste. Gently rub onto face in a circular motion for 2 to 3 minutes. Rinse with warm water then cool water. Follow with toner and moisturizer.
