Face mask every day. My mom looks just great. She has perfect skin. And the secret of such perfection is simple: every day she does something face mask. We live in a large industrial city, so negative impact external environment must be compensated with increased care. Depending on the season, the masks are always different. In summer - berry and herbal, in winter - protective and nutritious. At least once a week - contrast facial baths. And after the mask, you need to apply cream to dry skin. There is also a rule here that she shared with me.
The cream must match your skin type and age. You cannot use age care cream when you are young. Or use cream for oily skin if yours is dry. This can seriously harm yourself. And you still need to pick good cream for skin care around the eyes.

Dark spots gradually disappear and complexion significantly leveled out.
Egg mask
I have combination skin. But in summer it often becomes oily. A raw egg mask helps. I grate the potatoes and add one a raw egg. I mix everything well. Before applying the resulting mixture to your face, lubricate dry areas of skin with Vaseline. After 15 minutes, I wash off the mask. Just not with hot water, but with cool water. After such procedures, facial skin becomes smoother and shine appears less frequently.

My favorite mask is this: break one egg, stir, add a little camphor oil, flour, honey and yeast to it. If the mixture seems thick to you, you can pour a little warm milk into it.
Apply the resulting paste to your face. Keep it for 10 minutes, no more.
Afterwards, rinse off and secure the resulting effect with cream.

We will need: rice (clean), oatmeal, walnuts, banana, water.
We prepare it like this: in a coffee grinder, carefully grind 70-50 g of rice. (you don’t need to wash it, so as not to wash out the paste), so that it turns into flour, add a little oatmeal, 1/4 volume of rice and one peeled walnut, grind it all so that there are no lumps, pour it all into a container that is convenient for us (to make it easier to mix further). We take a banana by eye, a piece of about 3-4 centimeters (it is very important that the banana is soft and ripe), knead it all gradually, adding a little water and reach a consistency slightly thicker than sour cream (this is more convenient so that it does not run down your face). And leave this whole mixture for 10 minutes.
So, first you need to cleanse your face, I usually do it like this: I brew chamomile, steam my face for 7-10 minutes and then cleanse it with a soft scrub. Then we apply our mask for 20-25 minutes. And we wash off with warm boiled water (not from the tap, otherwise the bleach will kill all our efforts), then we wash with very cold boiled water.
Attention: since the mask has the ability to tighten the skin very well, you may feel tightness - in this case, apply a little moisturizer to your face or sprinkle with thermal water!

Honey
Honey works wonders for our skin. The ingredient is a regular in mask recipes for both hair and face due to its antibacterial and antiseptic properties, which fruits and vegetables do not have. Honey contains active substances that cleanse pores, prevent acne, and prevent the appearance of bacteria. It also protects skin covering from harmful UV rays, as it contains natural antioxidants.
Banana
This popular and tasty product contains a high content of magnesium, potassium, iron, iodine, zinc, vitamins A, B, E and F, which have a beneficial effect on our body. In addition, banana, dubbed by cosmetologists “the fruit of youth,” is perfect for preparing natural face masks.

Oatmeal
Oatmeal is known to everyone as an excellent breakfast due to its high fiber content. When applied to the skin, it eliminates the problematic top layer and dead cells. Its fibers are able to remove stubborn dirt and also exfoliate the skin, leaving it smooth, moisturized, soft and elastic.
Egg
Eggs are the basis of any protein diet. However, eggs are also good for your skin. Proteins have long been proven to be an effective ingredient in homemade face masks. They cleanse and brighten the skin and can also be used for exfoliation.
Kefir
This product is necessary for those who have digestive problems. It is rich in zinc, calcium and other minerals that the body needs. Contains lactic acid, which is known to perfectly cleanse the skin; ascorbic acid and retinol, which activate collagen synthesis. Kefir prevents acne and heals acne scars. After the kefir mask, the skin becomes smooth and radiant - the rejuvenation effect is noticeable literally from the first use.
Unlike a milk mask, kefir is indicated for oily skin, since the pyridoxine it contains normalizes the functioning of the sebaceous glands and reduces the secretion of sebum. To prepare kefir masks at home, you should use only fresh products; homemade kefir would be ideal.
Yeast
Brewer's yeast is one of the most effective ingredients in anti-aging face masks, having a softening and regenerating effect. Yeast tones the skin, increasing blood circulation, reducing its sagging.
