Banana wrinkle face mask

Bananas can be eaten or used as a face mask. Tropical fruit is famous for a large amount of vitamins and mineral compounds in the composition. Special formulations based on banana pulp have gained wide popularity, which soften, nourish, restore and tighten the skin. Banana wrinkle face mask is the most commonly used.

The epidermis is constantly exposed to the negative effects of the environment - the sun's rays, hot and cold water, wind, cosmetics are harmful, and also destroy the protective layer of the epidermis, as a result of which the first signs of fatigue appear, and then wrinkles. Yes, skin aging cannot be stopped, but it can be slowed down.

The sweet tropical fruit is rich not only in trace elements, but also in proteins, saccharides and amino acids. The main composition includes:

• magnesium - has a vasodilating effect, has an anti-stress effect, affects energy processes in cells;
• potassium - removes excess fluid, helps to relieve swelling. Due to this trace element, the absorption of other nutrients improves. It also indirectly participates in the synthesis of collagen fibers and the activation of special enzymes in cells;
• vitamins A and C - perform a protective function and activate cell regeneration. Prevent dermatitis, eliminate peeling of the epidermis and promote the activation of the natural barrier of the skin;
• vitamin E - restores the work of metabolic processes between cells, eliminates fatigue, dull skin color, evens it out and makes it softer to the touch. Tocopherol is also called youth vitamins, since it is he who promotes cell regeneration;
• B vitamins prevent premature aging of the skin, protect it from stress and allergic reactions. Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) reduces redness, itching and cracks in the corners of the lips, and vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) helps to accelerate fat, water-salt and carbohydrate metabolism between cells. This allows you to improve the color, protect the epithelium from the negative effects;
• vitamin PP - restores collagen fibers, helps in the fight against wrinkles, eliminates circles under the eyes, evens out skin tone;
• vitamin K - synthesizes proteins (building material) of cells, is responsible for updating the cell cover.
