To maintain the beauty and youthfulness of facial skin, there is no need at all to buy expensive creams and masks. Rejuvenation with folk remedies does not give the worst results, and sometimes its effectiveness exceeds the modern cosmetics of popular brands.
And before you do facial rejuvenation with folk remedies, you need to familiarize yourself with some rules for its use, which will help you avoid skin problems in the future.
Basic rules for rejuvenation at home
Folk recipes for rejuvenation are only effective if used properly. The word "correct" means the fulfillment of the following rules:
- All ingredients used must be fresh. Otherwise, inflammation and skin irritation await you.
- You should use ready-made home remedies immediately after they are prepared. Maximum lifespan is 3 hours.
- Before using the prepared product, you need to wash your face thoroughly using antibacterial soap. The active components that make up the prepared product almost immediately penetrate deep into the epidermis through the pores and "collect along the way" all that is on the surface of the skin. If it contains dirt, their micro particles will penetrate the skin. The result is redness, inflammation, acne, etc.
- When preparing the mask, do not use metal kitchen utensils. Upon contact with metals and exposure to oxygen, the product begins to rapidly oxidize and deteriorate, as a result of which the shelf life of the prepared mask decreases and its effectiveness decreases.
These are simple rules that require you to follow folk remedies for skin rejuvenation. Now that you know how to use grandma’s beauty techniques, let’s talk about how to prepare them.
Anti-aging mask recipe
Traditional methods of facial rejuvenation do not require solid financial costs. Masks are made from a variety of materials found in every home. So, let's get started.
Grandma's first recipe for wrinkles, which I want to tell, helps to improve skin tone, hydration and whitening. And this is the usual sour cream. And the fatter, the better. If you have a cream at home, you can also use it.
These dairy products contain large amounts of vitamins, minerals and fatty acids, which are essential for the skin to prevent aging. Sour cream or cream can be used on its own. They should be removed from the refrigerator and placed on the table for at least half an hour so that they warm up to room temperature. After that, sour cream should be applied on the skin for about 25-40 minutes. Then the remnants of the maxi should be removed with a cotton swab dipped in warm milk.
Another grandmother’s recipe for facial rejuvenation that deserves respect. This is a smear of aloe leaves with honey. The fleshy aloe leaves contain substances that contribute to skin regeneration and increase collagen synthesis. And honey relieves inflammation and has an antiseptic effect on the skin. But before you start preparing a mask from these ingredients, you must first prepare aloe leaves.
They need to be wrapped in an impermeable cloth and refrigerated for 10-14 days. Then they can be used. The leaves may be a little black, nothing to worry about. Just cut out the darkened parts. Squeeze the juice from aloe leaves and mix with honey in equal proportions. Apply the resulting mixture on face for 15 minutes, and after the remnants of the mask, rinse with warm chamomile soup.
Multi -component mask for facial rejuvenation
There are various anti-wrinkle beauty recipes of grandma’s ingredients that are also very effective. For example, a rejuvenating mask consisting of:
- aloe leaf juice - 1 tsp;
- raw egg yolk (if skin is oily, use protein);
- oil solutions A and E - literally ½ teaspoon each;
- freshly squeezed lemon juice - 1 tsp;
- honey - 1 tsp;
- pharmaceutical glycerin - 1 tsp
All these components must be thoroughly mixed with each other and the resulting mixture must be rubbed on the facial skin for about 15-20 minutes. You can wash the mask with plain warm water.
Another equally effective grandmother’s recipe for wrinkles requires the use of the following ingredients:
- oat flakes;
- cream;
- olive oil;
- yolk;
- Wheat flour.
You need to make flour from oatmeal. For this purpose, you can use a coffee grinder. Mix oat flour with 2 tbsp. l. cream. Let the resulting mass stand for a while so that it swells slightly. After that, you can add egg yolks and 1 tbsp. l. olive oil. If the mass turns out to be quite thick, you don’t need to add wheat flour to it. If you have it turns out liquid, then add flour to it "by eye". The consistency of the mask should be the same as sour cream.
The resulting mixture should be applied to the skin of the face and left to act for 30 minutes. After that, the mask can be washed with warm milk or plain water.
There are other recipes for making anti-aging masks. All of them are good in their own way, but effective only if they are used regularly and for a long time. Remember that folk remedies for facial rejuvenation work gradually, but give lasting results.
