Beauty Benefits of Curd

Curd is high in calcium, protein, and a variety of vitamins and minerals. It's chock-full of vitamin D, which has a lot of health benefits for your skin. The lactic acid in curd aids in the removal of dead skin cells from the skin as well as the prevention of wrinkles and other early signs of ageing. In addition, lactic acid helps to hydrate the skin, making it soft and supple. It also improves the appearance of the skin, inhibits acne breakouts, decreases redness, and aids in the removal of tanning. 

5 Ways To Add Curd In Your Beauty Routine

Here we have mentioned 5 different ways of using curd as part of your beauty routine.

Acts As Moisturizer

Curd moisturizes the skin If you notice that your skin has lost moisture, curd can help in restoring the moisture in our skin. Applying curd to your face on a daily basis might help you achieve soft, supple skin. Take some curd and mix it with honey. Combine all of the ingredients in a mixing bowl and apply to your face. Allow it to sit for about 15 minutes before washing it off with cold water.

Provide Great Relief From Sunburn

Curd Helps In Lighten Dark Circles

Curd reduces the appearance of dark circles. To do so, you have to take some fresh curd and apply it underneath your eyes for 10 minutes to get rid of those dark circles. Rinse your eyes with cold water once it's finished. Follow this procedure every day and keep an eye on the results.

Curd for Hairs 

Curd helps in enhancing the appearance of your hair. For this, you can add curd and egg and apply on your hair as a conditioner substitute to achieve soft, nourished hair. You can also combine 1 egg and 2 tablespoons of curd in a mixing bowl (it may vary according to the length of your hair). Mix the two ingredients together until they create a thick paste. Apply to your hair and leave on for 10 minutes before rinsing.  

Helps In Preventing Acne
