2. Beetroot Whitening Mask
Using natural ingredients for skin whitening has been applied by many people for a long time. Beetroot is no exception. Here are 2 ways to apply:
Beetroot and Orange Peel Beauty
Orange peel is rich in vitamin C. When orange peel is combined with beetroot, it becomes the best mask for whitening and brightening the skin. Orange peel also contains a lot of citric acid, which acts as a whitening agent, brightens the skin tone, and gives a radiant white pinkish appearance.
Mix 2 teaspoons of orange peel powder and 1 teaspoon of beetroot juice to create a thick mixture. Apply the mixture all over your face and rinse off with cold water.
Lip Pinkening
Peel the beetroot and then grind or slice it evenly. Try placing the beetroot slices on a tray in a sunny place for 3-4 days. After the beetroot is dry, use a grinder or blender to grind it into powder. Use a sieve to filter the powder to make it smooth. To color your lips and cheeks, add 1 teaspoon of powder (or more depending on the shade you want) to 1 teaspoon of aloe vera gel.
Mix the two ingredients together, adding beetroot powder to get the desired color. Store the beetroot powder in an airtight glass container. Apply this lipstick on thoroughly exfoliated lips and even on your cheeks. Continue applying 2-3 layers until you achieve the desired shine.
If you want this lip cheek stain to be more liquefied, add 1 tablespoon of rose water and pour the mixture into a small dropper bottle.
