Oils and vegetable butters are treasures for the skin if we know how to use them. Here are some new tricks that have proven effective in ensuring radiant skin using natural ingredients available in stores that sell such products. Some tricks can deliver exceptional results in skin care if consistently used.
1. **Cactus Seed Oil for Eye Area Skin**
This oil is a means to maintain the youthfulness of the skin around the eyes for as long as possible, as it has cell-renewing properties, making it beneficial for dull and aging skin. When signs of fatigue appear on the skin around the eyes, it is recommended to apply wet compresses with this oil to the eye area two to three times a week, leaving them on for fifteen minutes before removing and rinsing the skin with refreshing water.
2. **Moisturizing Aloe Vera Treatment**
For deep skin hydration in winter, it is recommended to adopt an aloe vera treatment for a month by consuming 50 milliliters of aloe vera juice on an empty stomach daily. This juice possesses exceptional moisturizing properties, enhances skin protection from external aggressions, and helps deeply hydrate it.
3. **Ginger Juice for Instant Glow**
Consider drinking a cup of warm water with the juice of one lemon and a bit of grated ginger. This mixture helps detoxify the body and enhances skin radiance.
4. **Hazelnut Oil for Dry Skin Care**
This oil is rich in essential fatty acids and vitamin E, offering nourishing, softening, and antioxidant properties. It is suitable for skin types lacking both moisture and oils.
5. **Talc for Gentle Exfoliation**
Talc is a fine powder rich in magnesium, beneficial for gently exfoliating the skin without causing harm. It is advisable to mix two teaspoons of talc powder with a few drops of water and massage it onto the skin in circular motions from bottom to top for a few minutes before rinsing with water and wiping with toner.
6. **Butter for Maximum Hydration**
Types of vegetable butters are very effective in nourishing and moisturizing the skin. One can use Indian cucumber butter mixed with the same amount of shea butter and a few drops of curry oil. This mixture nourishes and deeply hydrates the skin while enhancing its ability to renew its tissues. It should be applied to the neck and face, avoiding the eye area for more transparent and glowing skin.
7. **Saline Solution to Reduce Eye Puffiness**
It is advised to apply damp cotton circles soaked in saline solution around the eyes after removing makeup, as this step helps reduce congestion and decrease puffiness.
8. **Propolis for Acne Treatment**
A few drops of propolis extract help treat acne and remove the scars resulting from it.
9. **Baking Soda and Castor Oil**
Rinsing with a mixture of water and a teaspoon of baking soda can whiten teeth if used twice a day, while using castor oil to moisturize the lips is very beneficial for protecting them from chapping and maintaining their softness during winter.
