She learned many tips from other women as she traveled. Soon she decided she should share these tips. Thus came her book PASSPORT TO BEAUTY. Below are a few tips that are listed in further detail in her book.

BRAZIL:

These golden women are known to be some of the most beautiful women of the world. Want to know a couple of there secrets? How about this one? They use common beach sand to remove cellulite and dead skin from their bodies? They just pick up a handful and begin rubbing. Some companies are beginning to incorporate this same sand into their soaps. Speaking of skin, you know the women of Brazil are known for their rich, deep tans. Know how they keep their tans? Before they go out to sunbathe, they are known to drink carrot juice. They also drink beet juice on a regular basis to help intensify their skin. Just remember too much sun can be dangerous.

JAPAN:

Japanese Geisha girls are known for their flawless skin. One reason is that many love Camellia Nut Oil. Seems this oil is great for many skin conditions: dark spots, stretch marks, dry cuticles and can be used as a moisturizer. It can be found at local herbal shops.

CHINA

Here in the US we love Green Tea. China, on the other hand, use a lot of White Tea for many different products. Some of cosmetic lines are coming out with lines with white tea incorporated within them. Seems the white tea also has many different antioxidants in them, plus they are beneficial to help keep one from aging.

SPAIN

Women from Spain are known for their rich dark hair. Seems some of this hair color comes from Cranberry juice. Women here are known to use cranberry juice as a final rinse. They mix 1/4 cup of cranberry juice and 1/4 cup of water and rinse. But if you are blonde, do not use cranberry juice, try lemon juice instead.

INDIA

Women here are also known for their thick, shiny hair. They love Coconut oil. If you want thicker, shinier, or stronger hair, try a scalp massage with Coconut oil. Warm the oil in water and massage it onto the scalp of your head, leave on overnight and then rinse. Do this once a week. It also helps strengthen thinning hair.

AUSTRALIA

Women here love tea tree oil. It gives their skin a youthful glow. It can help many skin damage problems: sun, acne, dryness, and even some skin funguses. Just add a few drops to your normal cleanser or moisturizer. If you have dandruff you can add a few drops to your shampoo, to help stop the flakes, too.

Nice tips. You can find more in Shanlini Vadhera's book; PASSPORT TO BEAUTY.
