Probably not a single woman after the age of 35 likes to look "her age", and even more so to look older than her years.
There are a lot of anti -aging cosmetics now - these are great, but effective products are not cheap, and visiting a salon takes time, as well as a lot of money.
Of course, beauty is more expensive, but even if you can not get good cosmetics or sign up to a salon, you need to take care of your skin with the help of available means, and you should pay attention to your face as much as possible.
Folk remedies will always be in demand, and not just because they are cheap, but because they are prepared from the most natural ingredient - food.
There are many traditional remedies for facial skin rejuvenation, but they must be used continuously.
Scrubs and masks
The most popular are masks for facial rejuvenation, prepared according to folk recipes. They will be more effective if the skin is first prepared: steamed with medicinal ingredients - you can make compresses or cover your face on a container with hot steam. And a homemade scrub will help remove the top layer of dead cells.
For example, a good exfoliating scrub can be made quickly, using mashed berries and sugar, for example. Brown sugar is mixed with gruel from raisins, strawberries, etc. , rubbed and applied on the steamed face for 5-7 minutes, then gently massage the skin along the massage line and rinse with warm water. Skin is more moisturized and softer - you can wear a mask. Such scrubs can be used no more than once a week, and for very dry skin - twice a month.
It is convenient to make a mask with vegetable oil at home - it is always in the kitchen. Flaxseed oil has anti-aging properties. It can be used alone or mixed with other ingredients. Such a mask is very nutritious: flaxseed oil and honey (1 tsp each) mixed with raw yolk, add warm water for a few minutes, apply the heated mixture on the face for 15 minutes, rinse with warm water.
In a similar way, the mask is made with olive oil, which is rich in vitamin E and other antioxidants. To 1 st. l. butter, add egg yolk, a little honey and lemon juice, mix until smooth and apply on face, neck and décolleté for 20 minutes.
A well -known folk remedy for rejuvenation is ordinary lard: it gives the skin softness and elasticity, and eliminates wrinkles. A piece of fresh lard without salt is smeared all over the face, and after 15 minutes they are washed off with warm water and then cooled.
A large number of homes have aloe vera plants: a mask with the miracle of aloe biostimulation - some of the lower leaves of the plant must be stored on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator for 10-14 days before use. For the mask: 1 tbsp. l. aloe gruel and milk powder, 1 tsp. honey and raw yolks. Mix well and apply on face for 10-12 minutes.
Herbal infusions, lotions, creams
Homemade lotions and herbal infusions rejuvenate the skin perfectly, removing fine wrinkles, age spots and other imperfections.
It soothes, cleanses and rejuvenates the skin with an infusion of linden flowers, horsetail, sage and chamomile. The ingredients are mixed in 1 tsp, pour a glass of boiling water, leave for half an hour, filter and wipe face 2 times a day.
The tonic infusion of evening primrose, comfrey, parsley and dill is prepared in the same way - it refreshes the skin and removes pigmentation. The ingredients are mixed and brewed, as in the previous recipe, but insisted for 3 hours, filtered and rubbed on the face daily.

The mixture of ingredients is poured into ½ liters of boiling water, insist for a day and twice a day, they wipe the face. This infusion is very good for oily skin.

The mixture is poured into clean glass jars and cooled. Concentrated cream is used at night: it moisturizes and nourishes facial skin, gives a healthy appearance, prevents exfoliation and irritation.
A light massage with ice cubes helps slow down aging and preserves skin youthfulness. You need to massage the skin with ice in the morning, after washing: this improves blood circulation and nutrition, and the cells begin to receive more oxygen.
When removing makeup, it is better to use cosmetic oils - almond, grape seed, etc. - than commercial products. Such cleansing does not contain "chemicals", and at the same time saturates the skin with useful substances. It is better to wash the face not with tap water, but with mineral water, structured water from the refrigerator, or at least boiled.
Refreshing tea and balm
In addition to external agents that rejuvenate the skin, there are also agents that act from within: teas, herbal decoctions, infusions, all kinds of tinctures and balms.
Garlic balm will help rejuvenate the skin. Peeled garlic heads are poured with white wine (200 ml), boiled for half an hour on low heat, cooled and poured into jars along with garlic. You need to drink for several months in a row: 1 tsp. 3 times a day before meals for 3 days, then rest for 7 days, and drink again for 3 days.
Another balm is prepared with dry red wine - it fights sagging skin. One liter of wine is poured into a mixture of lavender and sage ingredients, and insist for 2 weeks in a dark place, in a cool place, occasionally shaking. The infusion is filtered and drunk every morning half an hour before meals.
In order for women's skin to remain youthful longer, it is necessary to maintain the synthesis of female sex hormones in the body - estrogen: they are responsible for retaining water in the skin and stimulate collagen production. Tea made from berries and leaves of raspberries, strawberries and rose hips is rich in phytoestrogens - it is brewed and drunk like any other tea. If there are no berries, you can use the leaves alone - for example, young rosehip leaves contain a lot of vitamin C, flavonoids, catechins and other bioactive substances.
There are many traditional remedies for facial rejuvenation, but they must be used systematically. Only in this case, you can expect that the time spent on self -treatment will pay off. Don’t forget about lifestyle, nutrition and water: you should eat natural and fresh products, drink only clean water, walk in the fresh air at any time of the year and don’t let stress ruin the most precious thing: women’s health and beauty.
