From the age of 25, our skin begins to fade. All metabolic processes occurring in cells slow down. As a result, first small, then more noticeable wrinkles appear, the skin loses its own elasticity. This process is also accompanied by an unbalanced diet, a sedentary lifestyle, and poor ecology.
Is it really impossible to help our skin and delay these age-related changes as much as possible? Cosmetologists say that nothing is impossible, and in order to reduce the number of wrinkles, as well as prevent their appearance, you do not need to spend fabulous money at all. Various folk remedies, for example, essential oils, will come to the rescue.
Butter oil
As practice shows, most women do not even suspect that essential oils can be used to combat the aging process. For most, this cosmetics is associated exclusively with aromatherapy, inhalations, water treatments.
At the same time, cosmetologists report that essential oils are the main assistants in the unequal fight against the first wrinkles. In addition, they give the skin a healthy and well-groomed appearance, eliminate the effects of stress and fatigue, but a similar effect is achieved only if the type of oil is chosen correctly.
On guard of beauty
The most effective in solving this cosmetic problem is lavender oil, as well as neroli. Just a drop of these miraculous remedies is enough to literally transform the skin. After applying this oil, the process of cell regeneration immediately begins. Simply put, dormant skin cells literally wake up and begin to work actively. As a result of the systematic use of this oil, the skin becomes more elastic.
But in the event that certain areas of the skin are too flabby, and you need to immediately "tighten" them, that is, to have a lifting effect, it is recommended to use lavender, jasmine, rose, sandalwood oil.
After winter, our skin looks tired, dull. The condition is aggravated by the presence of wrinkles. To give the skin a fresh, cheerful, rested look without any signs of overexertion or fatigue, as well as significantly smooth fine wrinkles, it is necessary to use orange essential oil.
How to use essential oils?
The rules for using essential oils to combat wrinkles are universal. Cosmetologists recommend using them in one of the most convenient and acceptable ways.
The first is a massage with the help of such oil. To do this, pour about 5 ml of the necessary oil, and then use it to massage the face, neck, hands. You can also use essential oil only for certain, the most problematic areas. At the same time, it is very important to observe the correct massage technique, and also not to forget that all movements should be light, in no case should you stretch the skin. All manipulations should be carried out exclusively along the massage lines.
The second way to use the oil is to add it to your favorite cream, but please note that the essential oil should not be introduced into a jar with a factory product, but directly into a portion. The thing is that essential oils have the ability to volatilize when in contact with air. Therefore, if you add it to the cream, with each opening of the jar, its effectiveness will become less and less.
To avoid this, add the product directly to the cream before each use. The mass should be brought to a homogeneous consistency, and only then evenly applied to the entire surface of the skin or to its individual areas. After 15-20 minutes, the remaining cream must be blotted with a damp cloth. Do not leave excess on the skin, otherwise it can cause swelling, and in some cases even allergic reactions.
Beware of fakes!
Experts warn that it is possible to significantly improve the condition of the skin, regenerate it, and smooth out wrinkles that have formed only if only natural and high-quality essential oils are used. Unfortunately, today you can find quite a lot of fakes. Therefore, purchase funds only in pharmacy chains or reliable professional stores.
