Choosing a satin fabric reduces static and is also believed by some to reduce the development of wrinkles, and help avoid allergies.<\/p>\n EYE TIPS: <\/strong>Are you plagued by dark circles under your eyes? Grandma has a few simple tricks to get rid of them. Either try a mixture of tomato and lemon juice, mix equal amount of tomato and lemon juice, gently apply it under your eyes and leave it on for 30 mins or overnight and rinse off with cold water. Puffy eyes can be dealt with by using slices of cucumber or chilled tea bags.<\/p>\n NATURAL SHAMPOOS: <\/strong>There were no commercial shampoos in earlier days. So what did everybody use to clean their hair? Shikakai , Reetha, hibiscus and other herbs were used as a natural hair cleanser! Shikakai and Reetha concoction was made by boiling them and rest of the herbs were added in water and was used instead of shampoo.
