Rubbing garlic on feet relieves soreness with its anti-inflammatory properties. This ancient remedy reduces swelling and pain. After sustaining injuries on the set of her upcoming movie The Bluff, she took to Instagram to share the remedy, cut garlic cloves were rubbed onto her heels. Garlic has antimicrobial properties, promotes immunity, and improves blood circulation when applied to the feet.

In a mixing bowl, add sea salt according to your requirements. Then, add pure vegetable glycerin and rose water. Mix well and apply the mixture to your lips. Scrub gently, then rinse off for fresher, exfoliated lips.

This body scrub aids in both detanning and exfoliating. Take one cup of gram flour (besan), unflavored yogurt, fresh lemon juice, and milk. If you have oily skin, Priyanka suggested using skim milk and low-fat yoghurt as alternatives. Finally, add a dash of sandalwood powder and turmeric powder. Turmeric powder adds a brighter hue of yellow, so the amount depends on your preference. Apply evenly to the skin, let it dry, and wash off.
If you have a dry scalp and suffer from dandruff, Priyanka’s homemade scalp treatment can help. In a bowl, take full-fat yoghurt, which has calming properties and hydrates the dry scalp. Next, crack an egg, an ultimate saviour for hair care, as it contains beneficial properties that promote overall hair health. Whisk the mixture until it reaches a creamy consistency. Apply it to your scalp, and once it dries, wash it off with shampoo.
