PAPAYA is good for SKINCARE
Perk up your skin and eliminate the day’s worries with papaya. It’s beneficial for skin care and repair. You can use papaya to treat or eliminate old dead skin cells, dandruff and other skin
disorders and even to reduce the signs of premature aging. The following recipes will show you how.
Acne: Apply a mask using the fleshy side of a green papaya skin on the acne. A papaya diet supports the treatment internally. Apply a mask of pickled grated papaya in vinegar once a
week. Dilute papaya vinegar with water in a one to 10 ratio and use it as a skin cleanser. Treat stubborn areas with undiluted papaya vinegar and papaya oil.
Age spots: Place the fleshy side of the skin from a mature green papaya onto the age spots until the spots fade.
Dandruff: Shampoo hair with diluted papaya vinegar mixed with lemon juice and leave on for 20 minutes. Rinse the hair with diluted papaya vinegar. Papaya hair shampoos are also
available in health food stores.
Skin with enlarged pores: Washings or compresses with diluted papaya vinegar.
Skin, rough: Native Americans rub rough skin with the fleshy side of the skin from a ripe papaya.
Skin, unclear: For deep skin cleansing, apply a papaya mask followed by an application of papaya vinegar weekly, diluted with water in a one to 10 ratio.
Skin, hard: Repeatedly apply squeezed leaves or the fleshy side of the skin from a green fruit. For hard skin on the foot, use papaya vinegar in foot baths.
Sunspots: Apply the fleshy side of the skin from a green fruit to the spots. Also apply papaya vinegar to the spots.
Wrinkles: Old skin cells make wrinkles deeper. Use a papaya powder (sold in health food stores as "Paw-Paw Condiment") face mask to reduce old dead skin cells and to make the skin
smoother. Apply the fleshy side of the skin from a green papaya.
In rare cases and with long-term application, highly concentrated papaya could cause sensitivity and skin irritation.
Papaya Vinegar
Cut the fruit (with the skin) into thin slices. Fill two-thirds of a glass jar with the papaya. Pour in apple cider vinegar until the papaya is well covered. Let mature for four weeks. Strain
out the papaya and the vinegar is ready to use.
Papaya Oil
Cut the skin or leaves of a papaya into small pieces and place them into a pot (do not use an aluminum pot). Add enough extra-virgin olive oil to cover all the pieces. Simmer the oil for
five minutes, then store the oil and plant parts in a cool place. After two days, extract the oil by squeezing the plant parts in a towel.
Skin Cleanser
3 Tbsp (45 mL) pure honey
1/2 tsp (2 mL) extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp (2 mL) wheat germ oil
1 tsp (5 mL) papaya juice
Mix the ingredients together. Wash the skin with warm water. Gently massage the cleanser onto moist skin, then rinse well with water. Apply twice daily.

1/4 cup (60 mL) rose water
4 tsp (20 mL) lavender water
Mix the ingredients together. Use twice daily.

4 tsp (20 mL) calendula oil
1 tsp (5 mL) almond oil
1 tsp (5 mL) rosehip oil
Mix the ingredients together. Gently massage into the skin twice daily.
Papaya Fruit Mask
1 tsp (5 mL) pure honey
1 egg
1 tsp (5 mL) cream
