Autumn for facial skin is a stressful time: it is cold and bad weather outside, and in rooms with the onset of the heating season, the air becomes unnecessarily dry. As a result, the skin loses its freshness and elasticity, and begins to peel off. How can I help her?
In autumn, the skin needs special protection and support more than ever. How to do it at home, without resorting to expensive cosmetic procedures, was told by a cosmetologist of the highest category Natalya Nikolaeva in the program “On the most important thing.”
“The autumn-winter period is a very favorable time, when many procedures for skin restoration, including its rejuvenation, can be carried out without any fear and risk.
If the skin after summer has become dry, peeling, has lost its elasticity, it can be reanimated with fruit or chemical peels. And you can do this at home.
Fruit peeling – mild, gentle treatment with an exfoliating effect.
You will need:
oatmeal – 2 tbsp. l .;
lemon juice – 2 tbsp. l .;
liquid honey – 1 tsp.
Mix everything until a homogeneous consistency (to a mushy state). Apply the mask to the face and lightly massage the skin. Oat bran has an exfoliating effect. And since honey contains a large amount of enzymes, we get a two-in-one cocktail: on the one hand – enzymatic peeling, on the other – peeling with fruit acids. This mask is not only fragrant, but also completely edible, so that the leftovers can be consumed internally.
The first time we leave the mask on the face for 5 minutes, then rinse it off with warm water. From time to time we increase the time: the second time we hold it for 10 minutes, the next – 20 minutes, then we bring it to 30 minutes and hold it for half an hour until the end of the course. Frequency of mask application: for dry skin – once every ten days, for oily skin – once every seven days. The course is 6-8 procedures.
Attention! Be sure to check if you are allergic to honey or lemon.
How to refresh your skin
The problem of pigmentation, loose, loose skin can be solved with stimulation. The most popular stimulating procedures in cosmetology are mesotherapy and biorevitalization. They usually give good results because there is mild trauma to the skin. Already only from the fact that the skin is cosmetically injured, it begins to renew itself. Today it is the most effective way to rejuvenate the skin.
What does it mean to rejuvenate? This means giving it elasticity, uniform, beautiful color and removing pigment. At home, you can produce a controlled cosmetic injury to the skin with the help of a miraculous remedy – badyagi, which consists of microcrystalline needles. And when we apply it to the face, we get exactly the very controlled therapeutic trauma that we need. To get the most out of the mask, add aloe juice to the badyagu. Aloe juice is a completely unique substance that can be called the best mesotherapy cocktail. And what is used in cosmetology clinics can be reproduced at home in no worse version.
Mask to restore and nourish the skin
Badyaga gel – 1 tbsp. l.
Badyaga pharmacy – 1 tbsp.
Aloe leaf – 2 pcs.
For the mask, you will need either a dry powder of a badyagi, or a ready-made gel of a badyagi. As for aloe, if it does not grow at home, you can buy ampoules of aloe extract at the pharmacy. They are very easy to use and sterile. We mix the badagu with aloe and apply it on the face. Unlike the first mask, we must wear gloves with this one. The first time we apply it for 5 minutes, then for 10 minutes. Wash off with warm running water or remove with a cotton pad. For all its simplicity in preparation, this mask is very effective. Even after the first time, changes are already visible. We do not deeply apply this mask to the lower eyelid, it can be lightly applied to the area of mimic wrinkles. The skin in these places will become denser, more resilient, and acquire a beautiful color.
After this procedure, it is undesirable to touch the skin during the day. And from the next day you can start the usual care with creams.
This is also a course procedure, carried out once every ten to twelve days. The course is 6-7 procedures. A slight tingling sensation is normal when using this remedy.
When working with a badyag, it is imperative to wear gloves.
What must be in a winter makeup bag? The nourishing cream is the main protector of the skin. Back in the second century, the Roman physician Galen invented the first and, as time has shown, the best protective cream that has survived to this day. This wonderful cream included white beeswax, animal fat and a little rose water. The result was an emulsion – water in oil. As practice has shown, there is nothing better for protecting the skin than animal fat. Therefore, when choosing a nourishing cream, you need to look at its composition and make sure that the fatty component prevails in it. Nothing has changed in skin protection since the second century, only in rejuvenation has changed.
If the skin is dry, we use the nourishing cream according to the skin type. But with oily skin, it is better to use a cream for normal skin. Cream for oily skin contains a large amount of water, and since we protect the skin, we need to observe the principle of emulsion – water in oil, and not vice versa.
