BANANAS AGAIN:
When you mix 1 banana ,a tbsp of honey and a tbsp of sour cream and applied to your face it will leave it as soft as a baby’s bottom ?

Lemon juice when applied does reduce the black heads, even better would be if u can scrub ur face with Oats in water. It does give u a clean and clear face.
Olive Oil: Since your lips dont have any oil secreting glands, you need to keep them moisturized. Any oil for that matter gives ur lips softness. So it can also be used.
Cucumbers: It reduces the heat boils that occur during the summers and also when sliced and put on the eyes it reduces dark circles.
Oranges: it does give a glow to ur face when orange juice is applied.
Any citron will give u a hydrated supple look along with an aura.
Not sure about the others though. I’ve used, tried and tested the above at home

to be honest i didn’t read all of your ideas you were wondering about, BUT i do know that a miracle worker for home skin care is coconut oil.
It moisturizes skin, helps acne (once your skin is used to it), cures rashes or anything like that, plus many of those problems people have with their skin. it also helps make scars fade.
An example of how well it works: i’ve had a sort of rough rashy patch on my eyelids my whole life, and nothing dermatologists or anything anybody suggested worked, UNTIL i tried coconut oil. in about 2 weeks it was completely smooth skin.
Also, if you have dark circles, either potato or cucumer slices work well
Hope i helped!

Well you could try Neutrogena Oil Free Acne Wash for your oily- ness. It works great on me! I don’t know about all those home remedies, just try the really simple ones out to see if they work. I know cucumber can take out puffiness from the eyes though. And for your brother, try Nature’s Cure. It comes in a spray bottle that is meant to be used for back acne, because it also sprays while upside down, so your brother can do it himself. I got mine at H-E-B. It worked really good!! After I started using it, I never had any problems with back acne anymore. Just tell him to try it!
