Getting ready for the holidays: skin rejuvenation at home

skin rejuvenation with ice cube

The closer the holidays, the more worries and troubles women have: to do a general cleaning, to buy gifts, to think over a menu, to buy groceries.

And yet, with all these troubles, one must not forget about oneself beloved. On holidays, every woman is simply obliged to look impeccable. Of course, beauty salons always hospitably open their doors to us. Professionals can do an excellent job with the assigned tasks, but it takes time and money.

Since not everyone has enough of both, some salon procedures can be done independently. For example, conduct rejuvenating cryotherapy sessions at home using cosmetic ice, which is very easy to prepare.

The complex effect of cold on the skin is successfully used for medicinal and cosmetic purposes. Receptors react to cold - the blood vessels first narrow, 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 taut and fresh, peeling goes away, wrinkles are smoothed out.

As a result, after a two-week rejuvenation procedure with cosmetic ice, we will get a simply gorgeous result - healthy, toned 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 stage is cleansing and toning
  • The second stage is skin nutrition
  • The third stage is lifting and nourishing the skin of the eyelids

Making three types of cosmetic ice

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

Ingredients:

Freshly squeezed cranberry juice 100 ml (strain), aloe juice 2 teaspoons (strain), purified or still mineral water 100 ml.

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

Mix everything and pour it into ice molds.

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

Ingredients:

Infusion of linden flowers (1 tbsp. Spoon pour 1 tbsp. Boiling water, cool and strain).

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

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

Mix warm 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 strained warm tea, mix, pour into ice molds. After the mixture has cooled down, put the molds in the freezer, and when the cubes are completely frozen, they are ready for use.

The rejuvenation procedure is carried out on cleansed skin, with light stroking. The movements are not massage, but simply lubricating, from the center to the periphery of the face and from the bottom up along the neck. All three cubes are included in one procedure. You need to use in a row, without waiting for drying. Conduct sessions for 5 days and repeat after 3 days.

The result of these simple procedures will be what is called "on the face" in the literal and figurative sense and, undoubtedly, he will delight you. Well, and the money saved at the same time, on the eve of the holidays, can always be used for good.
