*In a little bowl, take 2 tablespoons of rice flour and to this add a whole potato’s juice along with two tablespoons of water. Mix it so that you achieve a brownish running paste.

*Put this mixture on low flame and once it slightly begins to thicken add a vitamin E capsule (you’ll get one easily at the chemist) and add 2 tablespoons of aloe vera gel. Lastly, if you have dry skin you can add a few drops of almond oil.

*Mix it all together on a low flame and let it cool. Transfer it to a container which you can store in the refrigerator.

Do not keep this at room temperature and use it within a week.

Aloe vera gel has anti-bacterial properties while almond oil helps to calm dry skin calm and nourishes it from within. Potato juice and rice flour brighten the skin and tighten it overall. Vitamin E helps with acne scarring, hyperpigmentation and delays the onset of wrinkles and fine lines.
