Age-related skin changes are an unpleasant, but quite natural process.Salon treatments and regular home care help combat them.
Every woman wants to keep her skin young for years.But time takes its toll and inevitably leaves a mark on the face - wrinkles.Some consider their appearance quite calm, considering them part of life, while others have no intention of putting up with the injustice of nature and fight the hated "enemy" with all available means.
It must be said that even Hollywood stars, who by the nature of their work are required to look their best at any age, do not always use the services of plastic surgeons.A clear example of this is an impressive one Meryl Streep, star of "Titanic" Kate Winslet, the world's favorite beauty Julia Roberts, very talented Jodie Foster and Julianne Moore.All these beautiful women look luxurious and at the same time remain themselves.Their every wrinkle is another role, not played, but lived, that they are proud of.
However, this is not a reason to relax and give up on yourself."And So It Will Do" is not a story about female beauty.Everyone who manages, as they say, to grow old gracefully, undoubtedly devotes a lot of time to self-care, regularly visiting cosmetologists and taking care of their skin at home.
Today we decided to talk about home care with experts - cosmetologists at the center of aesthetic medicine and cosmetology.
Where do wrinkles come from?
There are two main types of wrinkles: facial (dynamic) and static.The first, as the name suggests, is formed due to the fact that our face is constantly moving, even if we ourselves are not aware of it.We all frown, laugh, smile, wrinkle our nose, and cry from time to time.In the process, grooves naturally appear in the corresponding areas of our face, due to muscle contraction, which disappear simultaneously with the "loss" of certain emotions.
Over time, due to certain factors, such as age, dry skin, loss of elasticity, structural changes, and then we have to talk about the static appearance of wrinkles that do not disappear anywhere and are visible even at rest.The problem is faced not only by older people, but also by relatively young people - after 35 years, or even earlier.
Deep wrinkles in the area of the nasolabial triangle, cheeks, and chin may be due to gravitational ptosis, that is, sagging of the face.The quality of the skin, and therefore the severity of wrinkles, can be affected by genetics, bad environment, bad habits, stress, insufficient care, constant exposure to sunlight and other unfavorable external factors.
The cosmetologist explains that if the facial activity of a certain woman is very high, it is better to immediately seek advice from a cosmetologist and solve the problem with botulinum toxin injections.At the same time, there is no need to be afraid of unwanted reactions - the specialist will conduct a thorough examination and tell you in detail about the indications and contraindications for the procedure.This cosmetic technique helps to relax the muscles without preventing them from doing activities.Therefore, the doctor can simultaneously combat the obvious expression wrinkles and avoid the unwanted mask effect.
If we talk about static wrinkles, then the method of dealing with them also requires a mandatory discussion with a specialist.Experts explain that the presence of rough folds requires the mandatory work of a dermatocosmetologist.
Fight wrinkles at home
Salon procedures, of course, are very effective, and the importance of professional care is difficult to overestimate, but not everyone has the opportunity and time to use the services of a cosmetology clinic on an ongoing basis.In this case, home care products come to the rescue.
"What do you recommend for home care? Patches (cosmetic products for the skin around the eyes in the form of a compress-plaster, impregnated with a special compound, for example, Baikal kopiah extract, an anti-edematous component) work well: stick to it, wear - there is an effect. Removed - no effect. Any moisturizing mask is good, but now there is only about two hours before going to bed like now. It gives a good but temporary result. Say that they will solve the problem, they will not make a decision.
Using an anti-wrinkle mask at home can be very effective.Internet users willingly share simple but effective recipes with each other.We have collected the best and, based on the response reviews, the most effective and asked experts to give their comments on this matter.
Important!Before using any new cosmetic product, you must conduct an allergy test!Doctors tell us how to do it right:
"The most sensitive area is the area behind the ear. But you will not be able to see what is happening there. You may feel a tingling, pinching or scratching sensation, but you will not see any skin reaction. This test method is suitable for cosmeticians, but not so suitable for self-examination. Therefore, for self-examination, most of the inner part of the third hand is used for the inner part of the hand, the bottom of our hand. sensitive area and most suitable for this purpose."
Anti-wrinkle face mask with banana
Our experts welcome the use of this sweet fruit pulp as a home care product:
"Bananas are very good. They contain amino acids and vitamin K."
Cosmetologists suggest mash the fruit to a mushy state and add honey if you are not allergic to it.If your skin is very dry, you can mix mashed bananas with sour cream.It is quite acceptable to use this composition as a homemade eye mask against wrinkles.
"You can, as you did before, fold it in gauze and place it over your eyes for 20 minutes," advises the expert. - This really works.But not for long."
This product moisturizes the skin perfectly and gives the face a fresh and calm look.
Anti-wrinkle face mask with starch
Women who have tried the effect of this supposedly miraculous mask on themselves claim that it can eliminate not only facial wrinkles, but also deep static wrinkles at home, and compare its effect almost to botulinum toxin.Starch is indeed a very valuable product, containing vitamins B and C, as well as calcium, iron, phosphorus and potassium.Cosmetic products based on it provide a short-term, but quick and visible lifting effect.
So, to cook we need: one spoon of starch, 150 ml of water, one spoon of fatty sour cream and the same amount of honey.Mix the starch thoroughly with 100 ml of cold water, add 50 ml of hot water and cook until thick, without letting it boil.Cool and combine with other ingredients.Apply to previously cleansed face and neck skin.Wash with warm water after 20-30 minutes and enjoy the reflection in the mirror.
Starch combined with egg white will give better results.This composition has cleansing properties and is suitable for oily skin.Mix a spoonful of starch with warm water to a homogeneous consistency, and then pour a protein.Leave for half an hour and wash.
Yeast face mask for wrinkles
It turns out that yeast can be used not only in cooking, but also as a component for anti-aging masks, because it turns out that yeast fungi, when introduced into the pores, are able to produce collagen.
We dilute a spoonful of yeast with warm milk in a 1:1 ratio, let it brew for at least an hour.Then add one protein and one spoon of honey, mix and apply on the face.Leave on for 15 minutes, then wash off.
Important!Before use, be sure to do an allergy test!
Gelatin mask for wrinkles
First of all, the basics are prepared.To do this, pour one spoon of the product with two spoons of water at room temperature.The mixture swells for a few minutes, after which it is placed in a water bath until completely dissolved.Various additives are added to the cooled mixture depending on the desired result.
"Gelatin is used more as a filling component. There is such a product - a concealer," explained the cosmetologist."It contains silicone, which seems to fill the wrinkles and creates a reflective effect. The effect of light and shadows. There are no shadows, and the depth of the wrinkles seems to be getting smaller. Washed - the result is the same as before. The same thing with gelatin. They use it, it fills the wrinkles, washes them - that's how: - not only a therapeutic effect. If we talk about the healing function, then the same banana will most likely help.
You can and should take care of yourself.Home care products contain vitamins and microelements and, indeed, can have a visible effect, even if temporary.The main thing is to make sure there are no allergic reactions and correctly determine your skin type, and for this it is advisable to visit the cosmetologist's office first.
