To preserve the beauty and youth of facial skin, it is not necessary to buy expensive creams and masks. The rejuvenation with folk remedies does not give the worst results and, sometimes, its effectiveness surpasses even the modern cosmetics of popular brands.
And before performing facial rejuvenation with folk remedies, you need to familiarize yourself with some rules of use that will help you avoid skin problems in the future.
Basic rules of rejuvenation at home
Popular recipes for rejuvenation are effective only if applied correctly.
The word "correct" means that the following rules are met:
- All ingredients used must be fresh. Otherwise, skin inflammation and irritation await you.
- Use ready-made home remedies immediately after preparation. The maximum service life is 3 hours.
- Before applying the prepared product, wash your face thoroughly with antibacterial soap. The active ingredients that make up the prepared product penetrate the epidermis almost instantly through the pores and "collect along the way" everything that is on the surface of the skin. If it contains dirt, its microparticles will penetrate the skin. The result is redness, inflammation, acne.
- Do not use metal cooking utensils when preparing masks. Upon contact with the metal and exposure to oxygen, the products begin to oxidize and deteriorate rapidly, which reduces the useful life of the prepared mask and reduces its effectiveness.
These are the 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.
Recipes for anti-aging masks
Traditional methods of facial rejuvenation do not require high financial costs. Masks are made with a variety of ingredients found in every home. So let's start.
The first grandmother's recipe for wrinkles, which I would like to tell, helps to increase skin tone, hydration and lightening. And this is the usual sour cream. And the fatter the better. If you have cream at home, you can also use it.
These dairy products contain a lot of vitamins, minerals and fatty acids, which are essential for the skin to prevent aging. The sour cream or sour cream can be used alone. They must be removed from the refrigerator and placed on the table for at least half an hour to warm up to room temperature. After that, the cream should be applied to the skin for about 25-40 minutes. Then, the remains of the maxi must be removed with a cotton swab dipped in warm milk.
Another recipe for grandma's facial rejuvenation that deserves respect. This is the application of aloe vera leaves with honey. The fleshy leaves of aloe vera 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 with these ingredients, you must prepare the aloe leaves in advance.
They must be wrapped in a waterproof cloth and refrigerated for 10 to 14 days. Then they can be used. The leaves may turn slightly black, there is nothing to worry about. Just cut out the parts that are darkened. Squeeze the juice from the aloe leaves and mix with honey in equal proportions. Apply the resulting mixture on the face for 15 minutes and, after the remains of the mask, rinse with hot chamomile broth.
Multi-component masks for facial rejuvenation
There are anti-wrinkle beauty recipes with several ingredients that are also very effective.
For example, a rejuvenating mask consisting of:
- aloe leaf juice - 1 tsp;
- raw egg yolk (if the skin is oily, use protein);
- oil solutions A and E - literally ½ teaspoon each;
- freshly squeezed lemon juice - 1 tsp;
- honey - 1 teaspoon;
- pharmacy glycerin - 1 teaspoon
All of these components must be well mixed and the resulting mixture must be applied to the skin for about 15-20 minutes. You can wash the mask with warm water.
Another equally effective grandmother's recipe for wrinkles requires the use of the following ingredients:
- oats; cream
- ;
- egg yolk;
- wheat flour.
Oats are used to make flour. For this, you can use a coffee grinder. Mix the oatmeal with 2 tbsp. me. cream. Let the resulting mass stand for a while so that it swells slightly. After that, you can add the egg yolk and 1 tbsp. me. olive oil. If the dough is too thick, it is not necessary to add wheat flour. If it becomes liquid, add flour "by eye". The consistency of the mask should be similar to the cream.
The resulting mixture must be applied to the skin of the face and left in action for 30 minutes, after which the mask can be washed with warm milk or pure water.
There are other recipes for making anti-aging masks. They are all good in their own way, but only effective if used regularly and for a long time. Remember that folk remedies for facial rejuvenation work gradually, but have lasting results.
