You do not need to buy expensive creams and masks to maintain the beauty and youth of your facial skin. Rejuvenation with folk remedies does not give the worst results and sometimes their effectiveness exceeds even the modern cosmetics of popular brands.
And before you rejuvenate your face with folk remedies, you should know a few rules of their use, which will help you avoid skin problems in the future.
Basic Rejuvenation Rules at Home
Folk recipes for rejuvenation are effective only with proper use.
The word "correct" means following these rules:
- All ingredients used must be new. Otherwise, inflammation and irritation of the skin awaits you.
- Use ready-made home remedies as soon as they are ready. The maximum shelf life is 3 hours.
- Wash your face thoroughly with antibacterial soap before using the prepared product. The active ingredients that make up the finished product almost instantly penetrate the epidermis deep into the pores and “collect along the way” everything that is on the surface of the skin. If it contains dirt, their microparticles will penetrate the skin. The result is redness, inflammation, acne.
- Do not use metal kitchen utensils when making masks. As a result of contact with metal and exposure to oxygen, the products begin to oxidize and deteriorate rapidly, reducing the shelf life of the finished mask and reducing its effectiveness.
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.
Recipes for anti-aging masks
Traditional methods of facial rejuvenation do not require heavy financial costs. Masks are made with a variety of ingredients that are found in every home. Let’s get started.
The first grandmother's wrinkle recipe I want to say helps with skin tone, hydration and whitening. And this is ordinary sour cream. And the thicker it is, the better. If you have a cream at home, you can use it too.
These dairy products contain a huge amount of vitamins, minerals and fatty acids that 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 to warm to room temperature. The sour cream should then be applied to the skin for about 25-40 minutes. Maxius residues should then be removed with a cotton swab dipped in warm milk.
Another grandmotherly facial rejuvenation recipe that deserves respect. This is the use of aloe leaves with honey. The fleshy leaves of aloe 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 making a mask from these ingredients, you need to prepare aloe leaves in advance.
They should be wrapped in a waterproof cloth and refrigerated for 10-14 days. Then they can be used. The leaves may turn slightly black, there is nothing dangerous. Just cut out the darkened parts. Squeeze the juice from the aloe leaves and mix the honey in equal proportions. Apply the resulting mixture on the face for 15 minutes, and after the mask residue rinse with warm chamomile broth.
Multi-component masks for facial rejuvenation
There are Grandma's multi-ingredient anti-wrinkle beauty recipes that are also very effective.
For example, a rejuvenating mask consisting of:
- Aloe leaf juice - 1 tsp. კ;
- raw egg yolks (if skin is oily, use protein);
- Oil solutions A and E - literally ½ c / c each;
- Freshly squeezed lemon juice - 1 tsp. კ;
- honey - 1 tsp. კ;
- Pharmacy glycerin - 1 tsp. K.
All these components should be well mixed together and the resulting mixture should be applied on the skin for about 15-20 minutes. You can rinse the mask with ordinary warm water.
Another equally effective grandmother recipe for wrinkles requires the use of the following ingredients:
- oatmeal;
- cream;
- olive oil;
- egg heart;
- wheat flour.
Oatmeal is used to make flour. You can use a coffee grinder for these purposes. Mix 2 tablespoons of oatmeal. K. Hold the resulting mass for a while so that it swells slightly. You can then add the egg yolks and 1 tbsp. K. Olive oil. If the mass is quite thick, you do not need to add wheat flour to it. If you have liquid, add flour to it "by eye". The consistency of the mask should be similar to sour cream.
Apply the resulting mixture on the face and leave for 30 minutes, after which 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 they are used regularly and for a long time. Remember that folk remedies for facial rejuvenation work gradually, but give long-lasting results.
