Today, on Russian counters, there is such an abundance of different cosmetics, competing with each other in the beauty and grace of packaging, that you simply get lost in the choice. True, the prices leave much to be desired, and therefore, you will admire the brightness and variety of cosmetic products, and you will return to the “grandmother's”, time-tested methods of maintaining the elasticity and silkiness of the skin
I understand that to many people I will seem just an old-fashioned person, but in my opinion, the best "cosmetic" for keeping the skin in a pleasant state is the absence of anger towards the people around and the refusal of envy towards the well-groomed faces flashing on the TV screen. I remember my mother, who never had any makeup, but her skin, although it had wrinkles at the age of more than eighty years, was always very soft, delicate and silky. There are several “culprits” of such a well-groomed skin: good heredity, a healthy working lifestyle, a kind attitude towards others, a constant readiness to help others, an absolute absence of envy of other people's wealth.
If you are unlucky with your genes, or you have received a burn or injury to your skin, you should turn your face to nature, in which helpers have been laid to maintain human health since the creation of the world. After all, plants, animals and humans are all created from the same chemicals. If a person does not have enough of one or another substance in his body, the plant world is ready to serve the person by sharing its rich pantries with him. Moreover, it is not at all necessary to go beyond the “three seas” to find a suitable assistant. You can completely do with the most familiar plants living in your own garden or garden beds.
Ah, potatoes, delicious
Our "second bread" is suitable not only for satisfying hunger, but also able to help a person who has received a sunburn of the skin. The gardener did not finish reading the power of the sun's rays, and he "rewarded" his skin with a painful sunburn. In such cases, we take out raw potatoes, quickly grate them three times and make a compress to the place of the burn. Of course, if the burn is severe, then the treatment will not do with one compress. However, the potato mass in twenty to thirty minutes "pulls away" some of the pain of your skin and reduces the burning sensation.
Such potato gruel calms the pain in case of skin lesions with phlegmonous (the most severe form) acne, painful calluses, eczema and other skin inflammations. The gruel, wrapped in a gauze napkin, is applied to the sore spot, bandaged, and the “filling” is changed after one and a half to two hours.
White cabbage, vegetable
Many have heard about the healing powers of white cabbage. The rich composition of cabbage leaves helps to improve the digestive process, enriches the human body with a number of essential vitamins, acids, trace elements, phytoncides.
The latter (phytoncides) determine the healing properties of cabbage when used externally. For external use, cabbage leaves are crushed to a state of gruel, which is mixed with egg white. The resulting mixture is used to treat skin ulcers, various burns, purulent wounds, applying the drug to the sore spot.
To make acne-prone oily skin of the face elastic and soft, they resort to the help of sauerkraut. To do this, once a week, make a thirty-minute mask from a thick layer of sauerkraut, covering it with a clean napkin. After the mask, the skin is lubricated with cream. The duration of the use of such masks is individual.
Orange yellow carrot
A rare vegetable garden does without juicy and appetizing carrots. The "girl" from the "dungeon" is suitable not only for a vitamin meal, but also for maintaining youthfulness and elasticity of the skin of the face. A bright mixture is prepared from carefully washed root crops, consisting of a vegetable chopped on a grater and a raw egg yolk.
A thirty-minute mask made from a thick layer of such a mixture, applied to a washed face just a couple of times a week, will maintain the elasticity, elasticity and tenderness of the skin. Remove the mixture from the face with a cotton swab dipped in warm water. After the procedure, the skin is lubricated with a refreshing cream.
