    Lemon is very astringent and quite drying. The sugar sounds a great natural option. Rose oil is fantastic for moisturising and keeping lines at bay.

    I've never heard of rose oil. Where would it normally be sold ? Pharmasist ? Supermarket ? I'm going to invest in a good moisturiser when I'm 30 for my lines insha Allah. I want to prepare myself for all of that.

    Houda, I thought you would have known about this, some of the highest quality rose oil comes from Morocco!
    Try to get pure rose essential oil - any good natural health shop should have it. It's quite pricy. You can also order online, try Tisserand's website or Neil's Yard. You can dilute it with other oils, such as almond for an all over body moisturiser. It smells lovely as well.

    Yikes....I've never heard of rose oil. I get rose water from Morocco just in case I'm on and I get a spot and I don't want it to grow or worse it multiplies.

    Wakha, I'll ask my MaMa for more info.

    No probs - maybe your Mum can advise on a good source to buy and you can start importing it! Someone's certainly making a lot of money on it.

    Showala:
    Haha, that's something we have in common. Crazy skin. Now in winter my face alternates between being scaly and dry to oily... I'm going to try your technique, since we have the "same" skin - it might work on me.

    But first I'm gonna get myself a professional facial --

    Me is good, sista. I'm finally done with this horrid semester at school and I'm going to partay and pamper myself to death...

    It appears I'm not the only one who has not heard of Rose Oil. Heard of rose water for cakes that could used for the face.
