To maintain the beauty and youth of facial skin, it is not at all necessary to buy expensive creams and masks. Renewal with folk remedies does not give the worst results, and sometimes their effectiveness exceeds even the modern cosmetics of well-known brands.
And before you do facial rejuvenation with folk remedies, you should be familiar with some rules for their use, which will help you avoid skin problems in the future.
Basic rules of home renewal
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, inflammation and irritation of the skin awaits you.
- Use ready-made home remedies immediately after preparation. The maximum shelf 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 almost immediately penetrate deep into the epidermis through the pores and "collect along the way" everything that is on the surface of the skin. If it contains impurities, their microprimands will penetrate the skin. The result is redness, inflammation, acne.
- Do not use metal kitchen utensils when preparing masks. Upon contact with the metal and exposure to oxygen, the products begin to oxidize and deteriorate rapidly, as a result of which the shelf life of the prepared mask is reduced and its effectiveness is reduced.
These are simple rules that require you to follow the popular skin rejuvenation remedies. 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 large financial costs. Masks are made from a variety of ingredients found in every home. So let’s get started.
Grandma's first wrinkle recipe, which I would like to point out, helps increase skin tone, hydration and whitening. And this is ordinary sour cream. And the thicker, the better. If you have cream at home, you can use it too.
These dairy products contain a large amount of vitamins, minerals and fatty acids, which are essential for the skin to prevent aging. Sour cream or whipped cream can be used on its own. They should be taken out of the refrigerator and placed on the table for at least half an hour to warm to room temperature. After that, the sour cream should be applied to the skin for about 25-40 minutes. Then the maximum residue should be removed with a cotton swab dipped in warm milk.
Another recipe for rejuvenating grandma's face that deserves respect. This is the application of aloe leaves with honey. The fleshy leaves of aloe 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 need to prepare the aloe leaves in advance.
They should be wrapped in an impermeable cloth and refrigerated for 10-14 days. Then they can be used. The leaves may turn slightly black, there is nothing to worry about. Simply cut out parts that have darkened. Squeeze the juice from the aloe leaves and mix it with honey in equal proportions. Put the resulting mixture on the face for 15 minutes, and after the remnants of the mask, rinse with warm chamomile broth.
Multi-ingredient face rejuvenation mask
There are grandmothers anti-wrinkle beauty recipes, which are very effective.
For example, a rejuvenating mask consisting of:
- aloe leaf juice - 1 tablespoon;
- egg yolk (if skin is oily, use protein);
- oil solutions A and E - literally spoons each;
- freshly squeezed lemon juice - 1 tablespoon;
- honey - 1 tablespoon;
- glycerin at the pharmacy - 1 tsp
All these ingredients should be thoroughly mixed together and the resulting mixture should be applied to the skin for about 15-20 minutes. You can wash the mask with plain warm water.
Another equally effective grandmother recipe for wrinkles requires the use of the following ingredients:
- oatmeal; cream
- ;
- olive oil;
- egg yolk;
- wheat flour.
Oatmeal is used to make flour. For these purposes, you can use a coffee grinder. Mix oatmeal with 2 tbsp. lkremLet the resulting mass stand for a while so that it swells slightly. After that, you can add the egg yolk and 1 tbsp. lvaj ulliri. If the mass is thick enough, you do not need to add wheat flour to it. If you get it liquid, then add flour to it "by eye". The consistency of the mask should be similar to 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 off 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 used regularly and for a long time. Remember that folk remedies for facial rejuvenation work gradually, but give lasting results.
