Anti-aging masks
The secret dream of every woman is to look young at any age. Oh, what tricks women do not go to for its implementation!
Perhaps the most affordable, and therefore the most common method of achieving this goal is anti-aging masks. Someone prefers to buy them in stores, someone - to go to beauty salons and receive appropriate anti-aging services there. But many women, for various reasons, prefer anti-aging masks at home.
How to prepare an anti-aging mask at home?
With age, our skin loses moisture, sags and becomes thinner, wrinkles appear. Therefore, the first thing to do to maintain youthfulness is to regularly moisturize the skin. That is why every anti-aging face mask necessarily contains moisturizing ingredients.
Masks for facial rejuvenation based on vegetables and fruits are very effective. You can simply grate a vegetable or fruit (strawberry, cucumber, etc.) and apply on the skin for 10-15 minutes, then rinse with water. You can use starch or flour to thicken these masks. You can make effective anti-aging masks based on cream or sour cream. And for dry skin, masks with the addition of olive or other vegetable oil are good.
Anti-aging masks for oily skin
To prepare rejuvenation masks at home, you do not need to look for extra time or any rare ingredients. For example, here's a recipe for a simple but very effective rejuvenating mask for oily skin: 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 tablespoon of natural yogurt, 1 tablespoon of warm water, 25 g of fresh yeast. All ingredients must be mixed until smooth and applied to the face and neck. The mask remains on the face until it is completely dry, then washed off with warm water, and a moisturizing gel or cream is applied to the face. This mask not only moisturizes and smoothes the skin, but also perfectly cleanses the pores and relieves inflammation.
Here's another anti-aging mask for which you'll need coconut milk. Take 1 tablespoon of coconut milk, 1 teaspoon of honey, and 1 teaspoon of ground oatmeal. Mix all ingredients and apply on previously cleansed and steamed face for 20 minutes. This mask must be washed off first with warm water, and then with cold water. Coconut milk moisturizes the skin very well and stimulates the regeneration process. Honey, in turn, disinfects and smoothes the skin.
Anti-aging masks for dry skin
Dry facial skin is more susceptible to aging than oily skin, as it lacks natural lubrication. That is why dry skin must be carefully and regularly looked after using effective anti-aging masks.
Here's a recipe for a good mask for dry skin: 1 egg white, 1 teaspoon of honey, 2 drops of lavender essential oil, 2 tablespoons of natural yogurt. Whisk the protein into a foam and add the rest of the ingredients, mix. Apply on face for 15 minutes, then rinse with warm water and apply a nourishing cream.
And here is the recipe for an excellent anti-aging mask at home with a lifting effect: 1 teaspoon of cream, 1 teaspoon of honey and 1 egg yolk. Mix all the ingredients and apply on the skin for 15 minutes, rinse with warm water and lubricate the face with a nourishing cream.
A rejuvenating mashed potato face mask has a very good effect not only on the face, but also on the neck. To prepare it, you need to add any vegetable juice to a warm puree and apply the mask on your face for 15 minutes, then rinse with warm water.
Anti-aging eye masks
The skin around the eyes is very delicate and sensitive, so you need to take care of it very carefully. To prevent the appearance of early wrinkles, in addition to eye cream, you must use special anti-aging masks around the eyes.
The easiest recipe for such a mask is to mix various vegetable oils and apply to the skin around the eyes. Wheat germ oil, olive oil, jojoba oil and also vitamin E are perfect. You need to keep such a mask for about half an hour, then remove it with a cotton swab. This nourishing mask is best done at night.
A mixture of olive oil and honey works great on the skin around the eyes. And this mask is washed off with a strong brew of green tea.
Anti-aging masks around the eyes can be done according to the same principle as for the face. The main thing is that you include in the composition of these masks the most oily and nutritious ingredients and vitamin E. But the ingredients that tighten the pores and tighten the skin should be excluded from use for the skin around the eyes.
Anti-aging neck masks
The boiled potato mask is very popular as a neck mask. And to make it as easy as shelling pears. Boil potatoes until cooked and knead in mashed potatoes. If desired, you can add olive or other vegetable oil, cream to potatoes. The mask stays on the neck for 15 minutes, and after rinsing, a nourishing cream should be applied to the neck.
A saline gauze compress works well as a mask for neck rejuvenation. To do this, 2 tablespoons of salt (preferably sea salt without additives) is dissolved in 300 ml of hot water. The gauze is moistened in this solution and applied to the neck for several minutes until the compress has cooled. After that, a thick layer of nourishing cream must be applied to the neck.
Anti-aging hand masks
It is not for nothing that they say that hands are a woman's calling card. No matter how young her face would look, you can almost always determine the true age by hand. Therefore, your hands also need careful care, and anti-aging masks will come in handy here.
And again about potatoes. Again, this versatile boiled potato mask works great for your hands too. To do this, add milk to warm mashed potatoes and immerse your hands in the mask for 15 minutes. After washing off the mask in cool water, apply a nourishing cream to your hands.
Olive or other vegetable oil can be used as an excellent anti-aging mask at night. Sleep, however, will have to be in cotton gloves, but the result is worth it.
Anti-aging body masks
Our body also requires a careful attitude and care. In principle, there are no special differences between face and body care. The only thing that should be borne in mind is that on our body, different areas of the skin have different moisture content. Therefore, rejuvenating masks must be made in accordance with the area where you will apply them. For the rest, it all depends on your imagination and choice of products. Most of them have already been written above.
