Okay, let's all be honest for a moment here; ever since the lockdown was issued, we've all been trying our hand at all sorts of DIYs. And why not? After all, natural ingredients work just as well as store-bought products if not better. And if you're looking to opt for more of these natural ingredients, one such ingredient that you need to include in your beauty regime is beetroot. Loaded with vitamins and nutrients, beetroot can work wonders for your skin. So, here are a few beauty DIYs that you can opt for with beetroot.

Beetroot tint: You can use this on your lips, cheeks and eyes to opt for that natural rosy tint. To make this tint, you'll need two tablespoons of beetroot powder and two tablespoons of almond oil. Mix these two ingredients well so that you end up with a smooth and lump-free liquid. And voila! Your tint is ready to use! Trust us, everyone's going to ask you which makeup product you're using after seeing the tint on your face.

Beetroot scrub for cheeks: Give your cheeks the softness they need by scrubbing them with this beetroot scrub. You'll need half a beetroot (grated) and a tablespoon of sugar. Mix these two ingredients together to make the scrub. Apply the scrub to your cheeks and rub it in gentle circular motions for a few minutes. Leave it on for a few more minutes and then wash your cheeks. Lock the moisture in with a lightweight moisturiser. You'll end up with a beautifully rosy glow.

Beetroot scrub for lips: One of the major issues we all face during the summer season is chapped lips. So, if you're looking for a natural remedy, let this beetroot scrub come to your aid. You'll need one teaspoon beetroot juice, three to four drops of jojoba oil and half a teaspoon of sugar. Mix these ingredients well to form the scrub and then rub it on your lips gently. Leave it on for a few more minutes and then rinse the scrub off. Use a lip balm to help lock the moisture in.

Well, now that you know just how handy beetroots are when it comes to beauty and skincare, what are you waiting for? Go give these hacks a try! Stay tuned for more updates.
