Closer to 35, the skin begins to lose its youth and abilities. The moisture is not kept so active, the face gradually settles, and the first wrinkles form around the lips and eyes. It is important not to miss this moment by diluting the usual care with anti-aging products. And homemade masks can help with this.
Face masks 30+
After 30 years, oily skin type needs periodic moisturizing, but it’s too early to forget about matte compounds. But for "dry" face owners, it's time to wake up - moisturizing masks should be replaced with those aimed at regenerating and rejuvenating the epidermis.Although the transition from young to mature skin should not be accompanied by extremes.Products that are over-nutritious will only make wrinkles more visible, and the passion for the "heavy artillery" can cause flabbiness. Care should be tailored to the needs of the skin, so feel free to experiment by combining masks with different effects.
Indications for use
Moisture and refreshing masks marked "30+" are used to solve some problems:
- the first age-related changes;
- wrinkles, including mimics;
- pigmentation;
- gravitational ptosis - sagging of a person under the influence of gravity;
- pronounced nasolabial folds;
- "Bulldog cheeks";
- double chin;

Rules of application and frequency of use of masks
Home products are only applied to previously prepared skin.Before the main procedure, you need to remove makeup and clean your face.The effectiveness of scrubbing or exfoliation will increase. Steam baths also increase the effectiveness of care. But be careful, they are contraindicated in cardiovascular diseases, thin skin, rosacea and rosacea.
Fresh food and non-metallic utensils are used to mix the masks. You need to apply the product immediately after preparation - remember that natural ingredients deteriorate quickly.
The best exposure time for any mask is 10-30 minutes. It’s pointless to keep the person feeling smaller or longer - the active ingredients don’t have time to absorb or stop acting. But the frequency of use depends entirely on the condition of the skin: from 1 to 3 times a week.
