Preparing for the holidays: skin rejuvenation at home

skin rejuvenation with an ice cube

The closer the holidays, the more worries and troubles women face: doing general cleaning, buying gifts, thinking about a menu, buying groceries.

And yet, with all these troubles, you have to forget about someone you love. On vacation, every woman is only obliged to look impeccable. Of course, beauty salons always open their doors to us. Professionals can do a great job with the assigned tasks, but it takes time and money.

Since not everyone has enough of both, some salon procedures can be performed independently. For example, you can do anti-aging cryotherapy sessions at home using cosmetic ice, which is very easy to prepare.

A complex cold effect on the skin is used for medicinal and cosmetic purposes. Receptors react with cold - the blood vessels narrow first, and after a while (when the ice irritant is removed) they expand. As a result, the blood supply increases, the tone of the facial muscles increases, and the skin becomes tight and fresh, peeling disappears, wrinkles are made out.

As a result, after a two-week rejuvenation procedure with cosmetic ice, we get a gorgeous simple result - healthy, wholesome skin. In general, by spending a minimum of money and time, you can prepare your beautiful face for the upcoming holidays on your own.

For the skin rejuvenation procedure, you need to make three types of ice. Each of them is being prepared for a certain stage.

  • The first step is cleaning and toning
  • The second step is skin nourishment
  • The third step is to lift and nourish the skin of the eyelids

By making a kind of cosmetic ice

Red ice for the first step - cleansing and toning the skin

Ingredients:

100 ml fresh crushed cranberry juice (strain), 2 teaspoons aloe juice (strain), purified water or still 100 ml minerals.

The acidity of cranberry juice cleanses the skin perfectly (peeling fruit), tightens pores, blocks enzymes that destroy collagen, and the skin loses its elasticity without it. Aloe is an antiseptic with healing properties, it contains allantoin - a nutrient conductor.

Mix everything and pour it into ice molds.

Yellow ice for the second stage - rejuvenation, nourishment and smoothing of the wrinkles of the face and neck

Ingredients:

Infusion of linden flowers (1 tbsp. Pour 1 tbsp. Spoon boiling water, cool and strain).

Sea buckthorn oil 1 teaspoon, 3 drops of essential oil.

Linden infusion relieves irritation, while sea buckthorn oil, a storehouse of Omega-3, -6, -9 polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are an excellent nourishing agent for the skin, makes it firm, supple and elastic. Myrrh is a component for nourishing, moisturizing and aromatherapy rejuvenation.

Mix hot linden infusion with sea buckthorn oil and myrrh, pour into molds.

White ice for the third stage - care of the eyelids, rejuvenation and getting rid of fine wrinkles around the eyes

100 ml of green tea (1 teaspoon per 1 tbsp. Boiling water, drain, cool), 100 gr. milk (not fat-free), 5 drops of olive oil.

Add milk and olive oil to hot crushed tea, mix it, pour in ice molds. After the mixture has cooled, place the molds in the freezer, and when the cubes are completely frozen, they are ready for use.

The rejuvenation procedure on cleansed skin is performed by light stroking. The massage movements are not, but simply lubricated, from the middle to the edge of the face and from the bottom up along the neck. All three cubes are included in one procedure. You need to use one after another, without waiting for drying. Run sessions for 5 days and repeat after 3 days.

The result of these simple procedures is what is called "on the face" in the literal and figurative sense and, no doubt, will be enjoyed. Well, and the money saved at the same time, on the eve of the holidays, can always be used.
