Also, one can opt for home tips such as mixing honey with sugar and gently applying it to the back. The sugar will help with exfoliation and honey will work as a natural moisturiser. Also, one can mix oat powder with raw milk and apply on the back. Oats help remove the dead skin and raw milk will help lighten your skin. It costs approximately Rs 2,500- Rs 3,000.&rdquo; Poonam Sharma, owner of Head To Toes Hair And Beauty Salon said that this is the season when the back facials and back spas are in trend. &ldquo;This helps the girls wear backless dresses and blouses for Navratri and other seasons.&rdquo; Their facials are priced between Rs 850 to Rs 4,000. <h2 class="footer_style"> At: Tequeela Salon and Day Spa, Koregaon Park, A-3, Aashiyana Park, 323, North Main Road, Koregaon Park; All Kaya Skin Clinics across the city; Head To Toes Hair and Beauty Salon, Koregaon Park.
