Top 5 surprising things you can use Milk for.

It is amazing the things we can do with nature, and over the years people have been using milk do some pretty surprising things. This is a list from the 10 to 1 on the must surprising things you can use milk for. 

5.Younger looking skin! Who doesn't want younger looking skin; as far back as humans go people have always wanted younger skin. It's not that big of a surprise by now, but using milk on you skin can keep it looking younger longer. Even Cleopatra took milk baths and she was known for having wonderful skin. 
  • How make a milk bath.
Fill your tube, and add a glass of milk from the refrigerator which is 2 cups of whole milk please. For extra silky skin add 2 Table spoons of Olive. Then soak for how ever long you want to; you will come out with skin as soft as a new born baby. 

4.Prevent and get rid of wrinkles.
 Milk is a wonderful way to improve skin elasticity. You can take milk bath for you body, but what about your face. The skin on you face in ever sensitive. Your face is always exposed to weather, sunlight, and gravity. So it needs a lot of TLC. Here are three ways milk can help you save face.
  • Face wash.
Washing your face every morning with milk good be the best thing you can do for. Seeing as you already washed your face with soap before you went to bed; you don't need to dry it out by washing it with soap again. Take 4 table spoons of milk whole milk please, and rub it on your face. Rinse off with cold water and your done.
  •  Face mask. 
This is so easy you may wonder why you haven't done it before. Take 2 table spoons of milk and rub it on your face; let dry and rise off. The best part about this is that milk is so good for your skin you can do this when ever you want; without hurting you sensitive facial skin.
  • Damaged skin.
Say you have just plucked your eyebrows, gotten waxed, or even threaded. If you do things things then you would know that it can turn you skin red and cause bumps, or even bleeding. No worries you can prevent the bumps, skin red, and even days of swollen skin by adding just a little milk. Soak up milk onto a cotton, paper towel, rag whatever you can find, but do it fast because this works better when applying the milk right after your done. Take the milk soaked cotton an apply to the damaged area let dry and keep applying until you feel better. It is best to leave the milk on all day; you can put make up over it if you have too.

3.Lighten your skin.
This one might seem a little out there, but farmers have been using milk to lighten pig skin for years. Not only does it leave the pigs skin soft, but it almost make their skin lighter. OK so I know what your think OK I am not a pig, but pig skin just so happens to be really close to human skin. The truth is people do it to. So if you have some darkened skin areas, or dark scares maybe for acne here is what to do.

  • Lightening.
First I am sorry to say that this works best with milk straight from the cow; now you know why I told you about the pigs. You can use whole milk from the store; it will just take longer. Take the milk and rub it were ever you want to lighten and let it set for a every long time. You can let it sit over night, or apply every hour; rinse with water only do not use soap. You would want to do this everyday until your skin is how you want it. Please let the milk dry before you get into bed, or your bed will start to smell something awful. 

2. Strengthen your nails.
How wonder right! Now you can stop buying all of those expensive nail hardeners. This is easy to do as well.

  • Two steps.
Step 1 Drink milk but you know this so lets move on to step two.
Step 2 Take a small bowl and fill it finger tips full of milk. Make sure the milk can cover your fingers at lest up to the first knuckle. Take the bowl and place it in the microwave, and heat the milk until it is warm. You will know if you heat it to much because it will smell or turn to curds. Then after you take your warm sweet smelling milk out of the micro wave soak your nails in it for 5 minute rinse with water after not soap. I suggest doing this everyday, but whenever you have time is good.  

1. Straighten your hair.
Oh yes I just typed that; your eyes did not read it wrong. You can straighten your hair with milk, and it last until you wash your hair again. It is also nasty old milk smell free. 
  • Milk straightener
All you need is a whole milk, spray bottle, fine tooth comb, and a wide tooth comb. Pour milk into spray bottle and start to spray and comb the milk through your air with a wide tooth comb. After your hair is milk soaked start to comb with fine tooth comb, and leave milk wash in your hair for 20 minutes. After rinse your hair with cold water, don't scrub your or flip it around, just let the water do the work. Condition you hair the way you always do, and dry hair. Never rub curly hair dry it damages the hair follicles, and really hurt your hair in the long run; it even causes hair lose. Wrap your hair in the towel and let the water soak into the towel you can also softly wring if you really have to, but I don't suggest it. Brush your hair again with the wide and fine tooth comb and let dry; like magic your hair will be straight.
