To preserve the beauty and youth of your facial skin, it is not at all necessary to buy expensive creams and masks.Rejuvenation with folk remedies gives no worse results, and sometimes their effectiveness surpasses even modern cosmetics from popular brands.
And before carrying out facial rejuvenation with folk remedies, you need to familiarize yourself with some rules for their use that will help you avoid skin problems in the future.
Basic rules for rejuvenation at home
Traditional recipes for rejuvenation are effective only if they are used correctly.
The word “correctly” means following the following rules:
- All ingredients used must be fresh.Otherwise, you will experience inflammation and skin irritation.
- You should use ready-made home remedies immediately after preparing them.Their maximum shelf life is 3 hours.
- Before applying the prepared product, you should thoroughly wash your face using antibacterial soap.The active components included in the prepared product almost instantly penetrate deep into the epidermis through the pores and “collect along the way” everything that is on the surface of the skin.If there are contaminants on it, their microparticles will penetrate the skin.The result is redness, inflammation, acne.
- When preparing masks, do not use metal kitchen utensils.Upon contact with metal and exposure to oxygen, products begin to quickly oxidize and deteriorate, as a result of which the shelf life of the prepared mask decreases and its effectiveness decreases.
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 preparing them.
Recipes for anti-aging masks
Traditional methods of facial rejuvenation do not require significant financial costs.Masks are prepared from various ingredients that are available in every home.So let's begin.
The first grandmother’s recipe for wrinkles, which I would like to tell you, helps improve skin tone, moisturize and whiten it.And this is regular sour cream.Moreover, the fatter it is, the better.If you have cream at home, you can use that too.
These dairy products contain a huge amount of vitamins, minerals and fatty acids, which are simply necessary for the skin to prevent the aging process.Sour cream or cream can be used as an independent remedy.They should be taken out of the refrigerator and placed on the table for at least half an hour to warm up to room temperature.After this, sour cream should be applied to the skin of the face for about 25-40 minutes.Then the remaining maxi should be removed with a cotton swab, previously soaked in warm milk.
Another grandmother’s recipe for facial rejuvenation that deserves respect.This is the use of aloe leaves with honey.Fleshy aloe leaves contain substances that promote 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 aloe leaves in advance.
They need to be wrapped in an impermeable cloth and placed in the refrigerator for 10-14 days.After that they can be used.The leaves may turn slightly black, there is nothing to worry about.Just trim off the parts that have darkened.Squeeze the juice from aloe leaves and mix it with honey in equal proportions.Apply the resulting mixture to your face for 15 minutes, and then rinse off the remaining mask with warm chamomile infusion.
Multi-component masks for facial skin rejuvenation
There are multi-ingredient grandmother's beauty recipes for wrinkles, which 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 the white);
- oil solutions A and E - literally ½ tsp each;
- freshly squeezed lemon juice – 1 tsp;
- honey – 1 tsp;
- pharmaceutical glycerin – 1 tsp.
All these components must be thoroughly mixed together and the resulting mixture applied to the skin of the face for about 15-20 minutes.You can wash off the mask with regular warm water.
Another no less effective grandmother’s recipe for wrinkles requires the use of the following ingredients:
- oatmeal;
- cream;
- olive oil;
- egg yolk;
- wheat flour.
You need to make flour from oatmeal.For these purposes, you can use a coffee grinder.Mix oatmeal with 2 tbsp.l.cream.Let the resulting mass stand for a while until it swells slightly.After this, you can add egg yolk and 1 tbsp.l.olive oil.If the mass turns out to be quite thick, there is no need to add wheat flour to it.If it turns out to be 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 this, 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 are effective only if they are used regularly and over a long period of time.Remember that folk remedies for facial skin rejuvenation act gradually, but give lasting results.
