Um yeah!! lol... but i have never heard of hydrogen peroxide/water solution and i want to give it ago as you mentioned in a previous post regarding whitening teeth pray tell?

For you CW...anything

I keep a spray bottle of A 50/50 hydrogen peroxide (35%)/water solution in the shower for the following reasons.

Its a cheap mouth wash! tastes gross tho' but it really does assist in slowly whitening the teeth and maintaining healthy gums.
Have you ever noticed how so many over-the-counter toothpastes and mouthwashes now advertise hydrogen peroxide as a beneficial ingredient? Go figure...

Its a quick disinfectant, just spray the tub down and leave

Its anti-fungal
For people who suffer from toenail fungus or athletes foot, spraying this solution on the toenails and between the toes helps to alleviate it. For nail fungus it will take persistence of a good 6 months at least until the whole nail grows out.

Pimples
The same hydrogen peroxide (35%) used to clean wounds can also be applied with a q-tip will help to dry out a zit

We can get 3% at the grocery store here...Foodgrade H2O2 would likely be at the chemist and in is 35% is available online.

Not to worry if you cant find the 35% try with the 3%

Alright, here's one tropicalgirl...

For dry skin chuck the lotions and potions. I make a body scrub from brown sugar and coconut oil. The sugar exfoliates (use brown because the granules are smaller and less abrasive than white sugar) and the oil moisturizes. Just get a glass jar or some such container, pour some brown sugar in and start adding the coconut oil, mixing well, until you get the consistency you want...perhaps more oil for drier skin, less for the opposite. Then just scrub yourself down in the shower and pat dry with a towel when you get you. It can take a little while to absorb into the skin but you will be SO soft and won't have the long-lasting greasy feeling some lotions can give you.

If I start to break out, after washing my face I'll cover it in a layer of Neosporin. I read online about a lot of people doing this, so it must have some sort of merit.

great idea, let me try this and see whether it will work out and I also need a suggestion from you guys. I want to become fair, can any of you let me know about home made tips to become fair.

I use hydrogen peroxide on my face too.... my eyebrows are getting lighter from it too so watch out! hahaha I'm not sure how much it helps clear acne any faster but I really love when it gets white and fizzy.... I like being able to see it actually working! hahah

I like the neosporen idea!
