Nourishing face mask at home

The main nutrition of the epidermis receives from the inside. It is the bloodstream that supplies all the cells of the body with microelements, vitamins and other useful and necessary substances. But sometimes internal nutrition is not enough and the skin begins to fade, lose its beautiful color, wrinkles, age spots appear on it, and elasticity disappears. To correct this situation, a nourishing face mask will help, which is very simple to make at home.

In the absence of the necessary nutrition, the epithelium begins to die, its cells are destroyed from the inside, resulting in dull, flaccid skin with a gray tint. Here, in order to avoid such a situation, it is necessary to apply special nourishing masks to the face. The use of such a cosmetic product is necessary in the following cases:

1. Seasonal beriberi. In autumn and early spring, the body more than ever needs additional nutrition, especially the skin, and here nourishing masks will be simply indispensable.
2. Strong nervous tension negatively affects the work of the whole organism and the condition of the skin in the first place. The use of such mixtures will hide the traces of stress and depression on the face.
3. Age-related changes in the skin. The older a woman becomes, the more intensive nutrition her epidermis needs. Therefore, the regular use of nourishing masks is recommended for all women over 30 years of age.
4. With regular exposure to harmful substances on the skin such nutrient mixtures will become an indispensable assistant in maintaining her health and beautiful appearance.

But like any similar cosmetic product, it has its own characteristics, which must be taken into account:

• To achieve a visible effect, it is necessary to complete the full course of this cosmetic procedure.. It consists of ten uses of masks, twice a week.
• Sitting during the course on a diet is not recommended. Few people know, but with any dietary restrictions, the body will in any case lack nutrients, and the skin in the first place. Therefore, even the most useful masks can be almost completely useless.
• You can apply the nutrient mixture only to the previously cleansed epidermis. To do this, you can use an exfoliating gel, scrub or deep cleansing mask.
• The mixture should be prepared for single use only. Homemade masks should not be stored.
• Despite only the obvious benefits of such a remedy for the skin, it is still not worth applying to the area around the eyes.
• After applying the product to the face, its muscles must be completely relaxed.. It is best to lie quietly in silence with your eyes closed.
• It is necessary to wash off the mask from the face in two stages. First, the face is washed with warm water, without using any cleansers, and then rinsed with cold water or rubbed with an ice cube.
• At the end of the procedure, it is necessary to apply a layer of nourishing cream to the skin.

Nourishing masks, like all the rest, have several different types.

Unlike most cosmetic mixtures, nourishing masks are divided into groups not only depending on skin type, but also on age-related purposes. This division into groups allows you to maximally nourish the skin with all the necessary substances and trace elements, depending on the needs. At the same time, it is necessary to choose a specific nutrient, relying, first of all, on your age, and only then on the type of epidermis.

Regular use of nourishing masks is recommended from the age of thirty, therefore, such funds are divided into the following groups:

• For use after 30 years. Masks designed for use at this age are not only nourishing, but also moisturizing. It is at this time that there is a decrease in the production of subcutaneous fat and collagen, the result is a drier skin of the face, prone to the appearance of various irritations, acne and acne. Therefore, such masks will be a real salvation for problem skin. Due to a decrease in blood flow, the epidermis receives less nutrition and it is already impossible to do without additional vitaminizing mixtures.
• Masks used after 40 years, ideal even for sensitive skin. In their composition, in addition to nutrients, there must be basic vegetable oils that will moisturize the skin and give it elasticity. For aging skin, they will be a real gift, because the face will look more toned, there will be fewer wrinkles on it, and the face will get rid of an unpleasant grayish tint.
• Funds used after 50 years. The mask in this case is not just nourishing, but also anti-aging, since in most cases it contains a large amount of collagen and keratin in its composition. The overwhelming majority of such nourishing masks also fight against wrinkles, both those already present on the face and those that should appear. Existing wrinkles become significantly less noticeable, and new ones practically do not appear.

But do not forget about the type of the dermis itself. So, nourishing masks on this basis are divided into:

• for oily skin;
• for normal and combination skin;
• for dry or sensitive skin.

In addition, masks designed to care for oily epidermis are perfect for problematic dermis, and for intensive nutrition of very sensitive skin, it is best to choose masks designed for dry dermis.

In addition, such mixtures necessary for a person are further divided into two large groups: for use in winter or in summer. And for the most correct, comprehensive and really effective facial skin care, choosing masks should also take into account the time of year. In the hot period, the composition of such mixtures for the most part includes fresh fruits and vegetables, which saturate the epidermis with life-giving moisture. In winter, masks contain more oils in their composition, which intensely nourish the skin.

Few people know that it is also necessary to apply such mixtures on the face at a certain time of the day. So, some of them use in the morning, some only at night. It all depends on skin type and age. But we will talk about this in more detail below.

Many sources recommend using formula twice a week, but this rule only applies to women under 40. Those who have already crossed this age limit need to carry out such nutrition of the face already three times a week.

An important role is played by the time of application of funds on the face. The best time of day to use nutrient mixtures is late at night from 11 pm to 1 am. A good result will be from funds applied to the epidermis in the intervals between eleven and thirteen o'clock in the afternoon. But from three o'clock until six in the afternoon, it is best not to carry out any cosmetic procedures at all.

For deeper penetration of nutrients into the depths of the epidermis, after applying the mixture, cover your face with a warm towel. The exposure time of the mask on the skin is on average 20 minutes. Wash off the remnants of the mixture with water or a decoction of herbs, but if the mask was made on an oil basis, it is better to remove its remnants from the skin with a cotton swab dipped in a decoction of herbs or milk.

Self-made face masks allow you not only to save your budget, but also to avoid the use of products containing preservatives or parabens.

The best nourishing masks for women aged 30 to 40 are the following:

• honey-carrot mix. Candied honey and freshly squeezed carrot juice are mixed in equal proportions in one spoonful. To them is added the yolk of a small egg and a teaspoon of shea butter or linseed oil. This nourishing blend is ideal for dry, sensitive and normal skin types.

• If the skin is too porous, oily and problematic, a seaweed mixture is ideal for caring for it, buckwheat flour and rosemary essential oil. Algae is crushed to a powder and mixed with flour. Then melt water or a decoction of calendula is added to the mixture to a state of thick sour cream. Five drops of essential oil are added to half a glass of the resulting solution.
• To intensively nourish the epidermis of any kind and remove pigmentation from it, it is good to use a mask based on cottage cheese. Three tablespoons of high-fat cottage cheese are mixed with one egg yolk. One tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide is added to the resulting slurry.
• A banana-yogurt mask also has a good nutritional effect. It is prepared from an equal amount of fruit puree and natural yogurt without additives.

For older women, but under 50 years old, nutrition should be more intense. Therefore, the composition of such nutrient mixtures is occupied by sour-milk products, starchy vegetables and, of course, oils, and there are already more ingredients in the composition of such products. The most effective nourishing and at the same time rejuvenating masks are the following:

• Yeast mask with aloe juice will not only help nourish the skin with useful trace elements, but will help solve problems with inflammation of the epidermis. Two tablespoons of live yeast and aloe juice are mixed, one drop of iodine is added to them.
• Universal mask for any skin type consists of a beaten chicken egg and three spoons of sea buckthorn fruit puree.
• For dry and sensitive skin a mixture of sour cream and buckwheat flour, taken in equal proportions, is suitable. You can use only these two components, or you can enhance the effect of such a remedy by adding a few drops of lavender oil or a spoonful of olive oil to it.

For women aged 50 and over nourishing masks should contain as many natural oils and omega-3 sources as possible, such as caviar. If necessary, such mixtures can be applied every other day. It is necessary to choose products high-calorie, with a high content of vitamins and trace elements. The following nutritional facial blends received the greatest number of positive reviews:

• Pistachio. Quite expensive, but one of the most effective masks. To prepare it, peeled nuts are crushed in a blender to a paste. To the resulting slurry add a tablespoon of sour cream and a teaspoon of honey.
• The oil mixture is also very highly effective. It is prepared from natural olive oils, linseed oil and jojoba oil in proportions of 3:3:1.
• One of the most expensive, but most useful and effective nourishing masks is prepared on the basis of fish caviar. Ideally, black or red caviar is used, which is crushed and mixed with an equal amount of olive oil. Caviar should be fresh or, in extreme cases, lightly salted.

By and large, any edible products can be used to make homemade nourishing masks. Cosmetologists highly recommend enriching each mixture with a small amount of honey, but only if there is no allergy to this product.

Reviews of nourishing masks for all ages and skin types are almost all positive. The rating of mature skin care products compiled by cosmetologists and dermatologists indicates that such a cosmetic procedure is really important and effective. Women note an increase in skin elasticity and an improvement in complexion, the disappearance of pigmentation, as well as a visible smoothing of even the deepest wrinkles. An important advantage is the low cost of such a nutrient and the ease of its use.

Therefore, nourishing masks are deservedly considered an integral part of mature skin care.
