and hydrated because of the proteins it contains, thus milk is a

Natural plain yogurt
Yogurt, just like milk is known for it's moisturizing skin
properties. It is a great natural moisturizer for the summer
because it also helps cool down the skin. The natural plain yogurt
needs to be applied over the skin, left on for about 10 minutes and
washed off. You skin will remain silky and soft to the
touch.
Olive oil
Olive oil is known for it's multiple skin and health benefits. It

over the skins surface. Gently massage the olive oil into the skin

off and you will instantly feel a difference in the way your skin
feels.
Egg yolk and honey
This combo works wonders on your skin, and the mask made using

with a couple of teaspoons of honey and apply it on your face and
neck. Massage the mixture onto your skin and wait for it to start
drying. Once the mixture starts to dry wash it off with lukewarm
water. Your skin will feel soft and silky to the tough.
