How To Use Tomatoes For Skin

Tomatoes As Face Scrub

Cut a tomato in half, extract the juice, and add some sugar granules to it. Add 1 tbsp of honey and mix all the ingredients well. Now take the scrub on your fingers and gently massage it on your face. Make sure you are not using too much pressure on your face and working in a circular motion. The sugar granules and tomato juice in the scrub help to get rid of the blackheads, whereas honey hydrates your skin.
