Green Papaya Extract with Calamansi and milk

Do you dream of visibly radiant skin? Well, my mom discovered one recipe for your face and body. This will whiten, remove dark spots, moisturize and rejuvenate your skin.

GREEN PAPAYA + CALAMANSI + MILK

GREEN PAPAYA

Papaya is one of the main source of proteolytic (protein dissolving) plant enzymes. Papain is a highly potent plant enzyme isolated from papaya when the fruit is unripe & green. Papain is most potent when the papaya is still unripe and green.

Papaya is rich in vitamins A, E and C, and other anti-oxidants that help in giving skin the moisture and protection it needs. The nutrients contained in the papaya fruit helps in the skin's healing as well.

CALAMANSI

Calamansi has a very distinct alkalinizing effect on the human body, with alkaline properties present in the peel and juices of the fruit. The fruit can be used for whitening the skin, as well as a bleaching agent on mild stains of white garments.

MILK  

Milk helps you to soften skin and rosy skin. Facts provide that milk contains lactic acid, proteins, enzymes, amino acids, and antioxidants that begin with exfoliating the skin, hydrating it naturally, providing it a glow and hence acting as a complete anti-ageing lotion.

Ingredients:

• 1 Green papaya
• 5 pcs. Calamansi
• 1/4 cup Fresh Milk

Directions:

• Grate the unripe green papaya and extract its juices using a piece of cloth
• Extract the juice of calamansi
• Mix all together the papaya extract, calamansi juice, and milk
• Place on a bottle and keep at the refrigerator

Application:

• Wash your face first with water and your facial cleanser.
• Dry your face with towel
• Put few drops of the cold mixture in a piece of cotton and gently wipe in your face. (The purpose why I let the mixture cool because cool temperature minimizes pores in your face.)

• Let it dry for at least 20 mins.
• Rinse with water only
