"Beauty is only skin deep"
True, true but we, human, likes and loves beautiful thing. After all, we are what we see. The visual sight of ourselves is the first impression that we present to others. So, even though beauty is only skin deep, a lot of people think otherwise.
The most basic step in maintaining one's beauty is taking care of one's skin condition. Skin, being the largest organ in us, do need care and maintenance. As we age, it loses its elasticity and it shows through the wrinkles that surface in our faces and bodies.
These are the natural ways to maintain a beautiful skin and face picked from Mark's Traynor Beauty Book.

For those with oily skin, add one or two teaspoon of orange juice to the liquid honey before applying to the body and face.
A radiant, fresh and soft skin is ours for the taking if we make this honey method a regular routine.
Milk, if added to the water we bath, will soften the skin of our bodies. Add a cup of liquid milk or milk powder to the bath tub, and then soak ourselves in it. After some time, rinse off the milk and water mixture with clean water.
