Aging and Wrinkle Formation
A newborn baby has a very soft, smooth and wrinkly skin. Nourishment and growth fill out the wrinkles and with growth the aging process begins. During this stage, special baby lotions and skin care products that are applied onto the baby’s skin, continue to keep the baby/toddler’s skin smooth, soft and supple. As the child grows, it is still important to protect the skin from exposure to the sun, pollution and chemicals in the air. Teenage years with its blights and acne, changes the texture of the skin as it starts its aging process. This is the time to start a skin care regime to ward off those pesky wrinkles that will inevitably start to appear in your early thirties; as lines first and if immediate correctional action is not taken, then yes, those wrinkles will soon make their appearance.
In order to age gracefully, and keep that skin looking young, soft, smooth and wrinkle free, here are some homemade remedies that can keep your skin healthy, glowing and wrinkle free. Remember it is not only imperative to pay attention to the general health of your body but it is also necessary to maintain a healthy skin that helps match your young looking body.
Homemade Remedies to ward off Wrinkles
Spas and beauty salons will give you their professional treatments but at a cost. It is nice to be pampered and to relax while the professional beautician sets to work to pamper and tone your facial skin. But that same skin care and pampering can also be carried out in the comfort of your home. Here is how.
A Fruit, Honey Yogurt Mask
Ingredients employed to make this mask are 1 tsp. of plain yogurt, 1 tsp. of honey, 1/2 tsp. of orange juice, and 1/4 cup of bananas. Put all the ingredients in a bowl and mix, apply it to your face either using a soft brush or by using your hands. Lie down for 15 minutes to allow the mask to work its magic. The yogurt and honey work on your skin to tighten the enlarged pores and the orange juice helps to smoothen out your skin, while the banana helps to hydrate skin that is dry and irritated.
A Tart and Limey Mask
This is a slow acting mask but can be used twice in a day. The mask is made off just Lemon Juice. Lemon juice helps to tighten your skin and the enlarged pores and also helps tighten the wrinkled skin on your face. However, since lemon juice could dry out your skin, please use a light moisturizer, after washing the lemon juice mask off your face. Lemon juice is also effective in getting rid of other aging signs such as dark circles under your eyes.
An Egg, Honey and Fruit Mask
Ingredients used in this mask are 1 white of an egg, 1 tsp of organic honey, 3-4 drops of tea tree oil (for acne prone skin), 1 tsp of non- GMO cornstarch (the latter to be used in case of an oily skin or for extra tightening effects). Put all the ingredients in a bowl and mix and then apply a thin layer of the mask onto your face. Let it remain for 30 minutes before you rinse your face out. Using the egg white without whisking it results in your facial skin being smoother and sleeker look.
Three Vitamins
Vitamin E, C and K also play an important role in helping keep your skin rejuvenated, young and wrinkle free. Consumption of food rich in these vitamins will help keep your skin young and supple.
