What won't we give to have velvet smooth faces? Plastic surgery? Botox? Chemical peels? Face lifts? The list is endless. But before you go on this road, these natural easy at-home tricks will help you to fight ageing.
Try washing your face with oil
If you have dry weary skin, then washing your face with natural oils is a good idea for you. If you're wondering how this will help solve your problem, the Dr Leslie Baumann, a Miami Beach dermatologist may have the answer. “Many natural oils contain linoleic acid, which helps skin retain water,” she said. So, my dear, start your fight against wrinkles with 10 ml of olive oil. Mix in 2 drops of one of these oils: carrot seed to boost elasticity, frankincense to restore skin tone, or lavender to calm redness.
Massage it in for thirty seconds and then rinse with warm water, natural skin-care expert Sharon Gnatt Epel, advised.
Massage the years off
Try acupressure whether at a spa or by yourself. Acupressure smoothens the facial skin, according to Maya Kron, acupuncturist at James Corbett Studio, a New York City spa. These moves will release tension and boost elasticity. If you want to do it yourself, use the index and middle fingers of one hand to massage between your brows for 20 rotations. Apply light pressure to temples for 10 seconds, then to your jawbone joint (located in front of your ears) for 10 seconds. Repeat. Lightly press the muscle that protrudes when you clench your teeth for five to 10 seconds.
Cleanse inside out with juice
Give yourself a routinely three-day cleanse.
During your cleansing days, guzzle a whopping 18 pounds of organic fruits and veggies each day, says Eric Helms.
“This floods skin with vitamins A and C and other nutrients that boost cell turnover.” Next time you go shopping, ask for a blend of spinach, celery, parsley, lemon, pears, and cucumber and mix all these together for a drink.
By day seven (that is if you keep at it), your skin should feel softer and look more luminous.
Snack on Super foods (super foods)
“Skin is a matrix of proteins, water, and fats that needs a non-processed food supply for replenishment,” a dermatologist Dr David Colbert, author of The High School Reunion Diet has said.
Here are three line-softening nibbles to grab now: Almonds pack skin-plumping fats and vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that helps offset UV damage.
Dark chocolate with a cacao content of 72 per cent or higher is rich in damage-fighting antioxidants as well.
Blueberries give you a magic combo of antioxidants and collagen-protecting vitamin C.
