Yeast contains protein that nourishes the structure of the hair, as well as B vitamins that make it stronger. So a yeast mask for hair growth is a great way to get a luxurious head of hair. Prepare a decoction based on nettle or chamomile at the rate of 2 tsp. dry herbs per glass of boiling water. Mix 1 tbsp. l. yeast with 2 tbsp. l. broth and leave for 30 minutes in a warm place. Then add 1 tablespoon of castor oil, raw egg yolk, 3-4 drops of any essential oil to the mixture and mix all the ingredients. Apply the mask to the roots of the hair and distribute it along the entire length. Wrap your head in a plastic bag and warm it with a towel. After an hour, thoroughly wash off the mask and rinse the hair with the remaining broth. This procedure should be repeated twice a week.  

Waterfalls of Hair

The combination of yeast, kefir and honey is an effective combination that restores brittle hair well, making it stronger, thicker and healthier. The recipe for a yeast hair mask in this case is prepared in a similar way. First, we dilute 2 tsp of dry yeast in 1 tbsp of warmed milk and wait until fermentation begins. After that, pour a glass of kefir or yogurt into the mixture, put 2 tsp of liquid honey and mix vigorously. Massage the mask into the scalp and distribute it over the entire length of the hair. We put on a cellophane cap and wrap our head with a terry towel. After an hour, wash off the mask with warm water and shampoo. The mask can be done 1-2 times a week. 

Goodbye, wrinkles!

Yeast has a positive effect on the skin of the face. The active substances included in their composition improve the blood circulation of the skin and the metabolism at the cellular level. As a result, the skin becomes elastic, smooth and taut. Therefore, a yeast mask for wrinkles works better than many creams. As usual, first we dilute 1 tsp of yeast in 1 tbsp of warm water and insist the mixture until it becomes foamy. Meanwhile, grind 3-4 fresh cabbage leaves in a blender and squeeze out all the juice. Combine it with yeast, add 1 tsp. honey and mix. The mask is applied to the cleansed skin of the face and left for 15-20 minutes. Then we wash it off with warm water and lubricate the skin with cream. It is recommended to make a mask no more than 2-3 times a week. 

Second Youth

An excellent effect is provided by a rejuvenating yeast face mask with rye flour. Measure out 50 g of yeast, pour them 4-5 tbsp. l. warm water and mix thoroughly. Then pour 30-40 g of rye flour into the mixture and mix again until a homogeneous mass is formed. You can add here 5-7 drops of an oil solution enriched with vitamins A and E, which is available in any pharmacy. We insist the mask for 20-30 minutes, until fermentation begins. Meanwhile, we clean the face with a scrub and apply a thick layer of the mask. After 20 minutes, wash it off with warm water and rub in a nourishing cream. With regular use of this mask, fine wrinkles will be smoothed out, and the skin will get a fresh look.
