Home remedies for flawless skin and healthy hair are a firm favourite of Telugu actress Raashi Khanna. Make the best of your self-care Sunday by using ingredients she swears by.

Apart from turning to celebrities for style inspiration, you can also knock on their doors (not literally) for skin and hair care routines. It goes without saying that celebrities, at least some of them, have flawless-looking skin and hair that can compete with Rapunzel.

While the secret behind their glow is surely a healthy diet, adequate sleep, and plenty of water, there are some celebs who treat their skin and hair to something extra, something natural yet effective. Telugu actress Raashi Khanna is one of them. Raashi is a sweet patron of home remedies and believes that pocket-friendly and easily accessible kitchen ingredients can do wonders for one’s skin and hair.

The Tuglaq Darbar actress, in an interview with Pinkvilla, opened up all the natural ingredients she swears by and why. Calling herself a ‘multani mitti girl’, Raashi revealed that uses the ingredient almost regularly. As for her hair, the actress could not stop emphasising how great eggs are for one’s tresses.

First, take a look at her sans makeup glow here:

Multani mitti girl 

Raashi, in the interview, advocated the use of multani mitti. For the unversed, multani mitti or fuller’s earth is a natural clay material that you can use to get rid of pimples, open pores, and also achieve even-toned skin.

How to use: For those who wish to use this ingredient, take one tablespoon of multani mitti powder and mix it with rose water. If you want smooth and glowing skin, add crushed almonds and two tablespoons of milk to the material.

Aloe vera gel – a miracle product

Speaking of pimples, the Telugu star called aloe vera gel a ‘miracle product’ and revealed how it is one skin product that she keeps by her side at all times.

How to use: You can use aloe vera gel that is naturally extracted or the one available in the market. To use the product, just apply it directly to your acne or pimple marks or else make a face mask using aloe vera gel as the base ingredient.

Natural hair ingredients Raashi Khanna uses

Eggs 

You must have heard it plenty of times but never really tried using eggs for hair, right? Well, Raashi Khanna emphasises the use of it and we all know about her pretty hair.

How to use: While Raashi applies eggs directly, you can make a mask of it using lemon juice. Beat 2-3 whole eggs and add few drops of lemon juice to the same. Eggs are rich with nutrients and boost your hair growth while lemon juice tackles the smell, dandruff and dryness issues.

Methra leaves

A home remedy that has been passed onto Raashi by her grandmother has to do with methra seeds. She added that the ingredient helps in tackling hair fall.

How to use: Take methra leaves and soak them in water overnight. The next morning, use the leaves and grind them. Once done, you can use the ground material and ‘mix it with oil’ as Raashi revealed. Then apply this hair mask till it dries out and then shampoo.
