Over the last few days we've talked about the different ways
you can incorporate anti-aging
foods into your life that will help you look and feel
younger while also discussing the importance
of boosting your collagen levels so your skin is soft and
youthful. Today, I'll leave you with a few anti-aging home based remedies that
you can try today. I hope they help you on your quest for radiant, youthful
skin.
Anti-Aging Tip #1: Egg White Mask
Egg whites are loaded with protein that helps with tissue
repair and regeneration. They also
include
potassium that helps preserve moisture leaving your skin
looking smooth.
Here's how to create an egg white mask:
Mix together one egg white with a teaspoon of fresh lemon juice
and half a teaspoon of honey. Apply to
your face and leave on for 20 minutes. Rinse with warm water.
Anti-Aging Tip #2: Lemon Juice Dab
If you want to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine
lines before you go out, create a lemon juice
dab. It takes only a few minutes to create and will instantly
tighten up your skin.
Here's how to do it:
Apply a thin layer of lemon juice mixed with honey to your
face for 6-10 minutes. Then rinse it off with
warm water.
Anti-Aging Tip #3: Aloe Vera
Few things beat the healing properties of Aloe vera. Consider
taking a daily aloe supplement or apply
aloe gel to your skin 3-4 times a week. Leave it on for
15-20 minutes and then wash off with warm water.
Anti-Aging Tip #4: Cucumber Yogurt Mix
A single cucumber contains many different minerals and
vitamins including Vitamin B1, B2, B3, B5, folic
acid, iron and much more.
Create a skin cream by puree in half a cucumber with 1-2
mint leaves. Then, mix in half a cup of Greek yogurt.
You'll want to refrigerate it for 15 minutes before applying.
Anti-Aging Tip #5: Banana Mask
Bananas contain natural vitamins and powerful oils that will
improve your complexion and overall skin health.
You can easily create a mask by mashing one banana and then
pasting it to the skin. Make sure that
the banana is mashed enough so that it forms a smooth paste. Apply and leave on
for 15 minutes. Rinse off with warm water.
That's all for now! I look forward to hearing from you and
sharing additional anti-aging tips and strategies over the coming weeks.
