Face masks

They are necessary for a healthy complexion and renewal of tone. Grandmother's masks are safe for the skin, and even vice versa, very useful. But before that, the face must be thoroughly washed. You need to prepare the mask just before application, but not half a day before or the day before. When applying the mask to your face, you should be in a state of relaxation and be motionless. To wash off the mask, you will need boiled water or an infusion of herbs. Here are some rules to follow:

  • it is undesirable to keep the mask on the face for more than 20 minutes, especially if it then turns into a hardened rough cake;
  • after removing the mask, be sure to wash, lubricate the skin with lotion and apply a cream that suits your skin type;
  • if you normal skin, then 2 times a week it is enough to make masks, if dry - more often, and if you are already in old age, then 1 time per week.

If your skin is dry, then the infusion should be prepared from rose petals, jasmine, mint, strawberry leaves, raspberries, currants, chamomile and linden flowers. If you have oily and porous skin, then mixtures of yarrow, plantain, calendula, nettle, aloe, eucalyptus, coltsfoot and birch buds will suit you. For 1 tablespoon of the mixture there is a glass of boiling water, let it brew.

A mask for dry skin should be based on sour cream, vegetable oil and cream, and for oily skin - on berries, vegetables and fruits.

Baths

It is advisable to take such baths a couple of times a week for half an hour. Water temperature 30 degrees. Salt bath: for ¾ of the water in the bath there should be up to 500 grams of salt. It is very good if it is sea salt, it will make you feel better and invigorate.

Wheat bran bath will soften the skin. Pour two handfuls of bran into a gauze bag and hang it under a tap so that water flows on it. Observe the temperature of 29-30 degrees. Do not wipe the body after the procedure. Let it dry itself.

Bath from a decoction of various herbs. Brew 250 grams of various herbs (sage, mint, Italian dill, rosemary, linden, lavender, yarrow), insist and pour into the water.

Clean skin– 4 tips

  1. To achieve an even complexion, it is not necessary to apply tone cream, it is better to use a mattifying face cream or gel. So your pores will breathe, and your complexion will be healthy.
  2. Use moist, antibacterial wipes throughout the day to cleanse your skin of dirt and dust that can inflame your skin.
  3. Always use moisturizing and restorative products. Do deep skin cleansing. For example, to remove peeling on the skin, this mask will help you: 50 grams of vegetable oil, the same amount of honey and yolk. Stir the homogeneous mass and spread a thin layer on the neck, face and décolleté.
  4. To prevent cracked lips, they need to be moisturized all the time. Cucumber juice, honey and pork fat (2:1) will help you. A good effect will be an apple boiled in milk. Constantly nourish your lips, do not forget hygienic lipsticks and balms. You can moisturize your lips simply by lubricating them with vegetable oil.

Grandma's shampoo

How to wash your hair, and most importantly with what? It may sound very strange, but you can do it without shampoo.

You will need a loaf of black bread. If it’s a hundred grams, then take it all, and if it’s large, then divide it into three parts. Crumble, pour boiling water so that it completely covers it, but no more. When the bread is swollen and warm, spread on wet hair wrap up in a package. Wash off after 25 minutes. You can not believe it, but the hair will become shiny and most importantly clean. You will need a lot of water to wash off the bread. You can add a teaspoon of honey, yolk and a little lemon juice to such a mask, but do not overdo it. The main task is to wash your hair. Such washing is very useful for hair not to break, fall out and grow well.

Hair masks

Women in Central Asia and the Caucasus are convinced that sour milk and whey have the best effect on hair. This feeds them and accelerates growth. First, they apply sour milk to dry hair, hold for a while and wash off with warm serum, and then rinse with water. It's a conditioner and shampoo.

Try an onion mask. Onions need to be chopped - you can grate, you can in a blender, add the yolk, a spoonful of honey, the same amount of olive, burdock or castor oil and literally on the tip of a teaspoon of ground red hot pepper. Rub this mixture into the roots and apply along the entire length, wrap your head in polyethylene and a towel, and rinse with shampoo or bread after an hour. Brittle, damaged hair will recover and heal over time, will grow better. The only downside to this mask is the onion scent that will linger on the hair. You can apply it before the weekend or treat your hair during the holidays. The result will not keep you waiting.

Hair nutrition

If your hair falls out, quickly becomes oily, the ends are split or you suffer from dryness and brittleness, then it is better to be examined by a doctor. If it is not possible to do this, then eat more vitamins, cleanse the intestines and liver.

Hair will be delighted with sea buckthorn. Add sea buckthorn oil, jam and berries to your diet. After a while, you will see that your hair is healthy, lush and shiny.

A decoction of pine buds and cones of coniferous trees will help a lot. It is necessary to take one cone or a kidney harvest, pour water and boil for a minute. Then let the solution cool down. Drink this decoction 2 times a day ¼ cup. For this you will be thanked not only by the hair, but also by the skin.

The main reason for women who do not look after their appearance is the lack of time. In fact, the reason is the lack of self-love. If such a woman loves herself for who she is, then there will be time.

The second common reason is lack of money. But that's not a problem either.

After all, our ancestors did not have expensive beauty care products, but despite this they had lush curls, clean and radiant skin, and a toned figure.
