If you’re looking for a veggie that will give your skin a radiant glow, then look no further than the humble potato. Loaded with vitamin C, the mighty spud has the power to brighten and refine your complexion. Plus, its juice is considered to be a great anti-aging cocktail that repels wrinkles. Put it to the test with these recipes below!
Relaxing Eye Patch
Raw potato slices can be placed under the eyes to soothe puffiness and lighten dark circles.
Natural Cleanser
Blend a potato wedge, three cucumber slices, a tablespoon of baking soda, and a bit of water into a paste. Use this as a natural facial cleanser to make your skin refreshed and dewy. Store it in the fridge to preserve its shelf life.
Anti-Acne Toner
Potato juice calms inflamed zits. Dip a cotton bud in the veggie juice and apply directly on the spot.
Exfoliating Toner
Combine grated raw potato with two tablespoons of lemon juice, and let your skin soak in the solution for 10 minutes to free the skin from dead skin and dullness.
Shine-Busting Face Mask
Grate a potato, soak it in rice water, and add one tablespoon of calamansi juice to create a mask that absorbs excess oil buildup and clears the complexion.
Anti-Aging Face Mask
Blitz a raw potato in a blender with two tablespoons olive oil and honey. This will create a mask that can boost your hydration, strengthen your skin's barrier, and fight wrinkles.
