August 28, 2009


Papaya is fruit which has the power to fight with the free radicals present in our skin. Thus papaya helps to get rid of the age spots, wrinkles etc. A mask made out of papaya will help us to clean to skin by removing the dead cells and thus gives us a fresh look.

For beautifying our skin we have to use a fully ripe papaya because raw papaya contains enzymes and it may produce a burning sensation.
