11 Can lighten your underarm skin

One of the most common uses of potatoes is to make your underarms’ skin look less dark. Just don’t expect results immediately because it takes time for any home remedy to work.

First, you can:

Wash and cut up a potato and rub the slices on your armpits for about 3 minutes. Let the potato juice remain on for about half an hour to do its job well. Rinse your armpits with cool water and pat them dry gently with a towel.

Or you can:

Cut up a clean potato and blend it until it is smooth. Put the mashed potatoes on your armpits and wait 10 minutes. Use cool water to rinse it off and a towel to dry your underarms. You should try both ways twice a day for at least 4 weeks to see better results.

12 Make a healthy juice

There are a lot of vitamins and minerals in potato juice, such as calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin C. Drinking potato juice makes your immune system stronger and has many other health benefits.

For example, scientists at Manchester University have found that potato juice has a molecule that can heal ulcers and heartburn and even stop bacteria from growing in your stomach. It can also help you lose weight, lower your cholesterol, get rid of constipation, and reduce the risk of cancer.

It’s simple to make:

• Wash a raw potato and peel it.
• Put it in a blender and blend it until it turns into a liquid paste.
• Put a piece of gauze over the paste to get the juice out.
• It might not taste like heaven, so you can cover up the taste by adding fresh juice from other vegetables.

• Helps with bug bites. Just rub a raw potato slice over the bite and let it dry naturally. Do this several times a day.
• It keeps your skin moist and fights against wrinkles. Grate a potato and mix in 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of honey. After 10 minutes, rinse the skin with cool water to get rid of the mixture.
• Helps with oily skin. Grate a clean, peeled potato and add some rosewater and a teaspoon of lemon juice. Mix these ingredients till they form a thick paste for a face mask. Put the mask on your face for 15 to 20 minutes, then wash it off and pat your skin dry.
