Guest Kaze Hime Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 You know how in the summer, when you eat watermelon slices and then the juice gets on your face? Is that good for you skin, or what? I've been wondering this ever since my mom brought home 3 watermelons >>; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kaze Hime Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Really? I thought sugar was bad for you skin? @___@ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest amity Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 ^ people sometimes exfoliate with sugar, it's not bad for the skin it just makes you gain weight! I think watermelon is only good because it has a lot of water... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wiwi_an Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 my mom always says u slice off the meat of the watermelon. then use the skin(inside part) and scrub it on your face(lightly). i heard tat it refreshes ur face and moisturizes? not really sure i don't do it.

twix0rz Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Not sure but it definitely can not be bad for your skin. XD People use sugar to exfoliate so the sugar part shouldn't be bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest -AngelzKiss- Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 i heard it's good to use the skin part of the slice of watermelon (after you eat off the red part, use the white part) and rub it gently over your face. i can't remember why it's good, but i heard a lot of ppl do that =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest me_maoh Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 idk. I've read so many natural healthy skincare remedies or whatnot and have come to the conclusion that if u put any 'ol natural fruit on ur face, it's good for you.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest _ATELIER Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 just rub it on your face and see what happens lol .. i can never do that to food :[ .. i would eat it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest xxiaoMEI Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 My mom said youre supposed to eat all the meat or whatever part, then use the skin, the part that you cant eat, and rub it on your face...and it should help you acne or something? LOL but i never dared to try sounds too eww haahha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lunastelle Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 i've never heard of that, but most fruits are really good for your skin. so i'm sure it won't do any harm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest melty-kiss Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 My mom always take the watermelon rind and rubs it on her skin. She also made me do that as a child but I really don't think it makes a bigger difference than splashing some water on your face or putting on some lotion. It seems like these days people will say you can put anything on your face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest balloons* Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Well I learned from a drama that watermelon skin is good for your skin. Not sure whether it's true or not. Oh. Btw you don't eat it (just trying to make my point clear) but you rub it on your skin. IDK if it really works tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Christinaisweird Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I've never heard of this lol. Watermelon juice is basically water + sugar sooo...its not bad for skin? There are other nutrients inside watermelon, like vitamins and others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest loveAmore Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I tried washing my face with a watermelon because my mom recommended it. But I'm allergic to watermelon and she didn't cut off the red parts so my face started to have an allergic reaction and my acne got bigger.

Guest marasshi Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 ^If you're allergic to watermelons, why would your mom tell you to put it on your face? (And why would you put it on your face?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest popolala Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 well watermelon has a good source of vitamin C.. So i would think it be good for ur skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest xrhapsody Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I've never heard of it being good for your skin but I know that I always wipe it off when I get watermelon juice on my face lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest morningcall Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I'm not 100% sure if it is good for your skin but it did clear up the acne for one of my friends. Maybe you could try it when you have time. I don't really see how it can hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
