1 Cleaning rituals

This is not new, we already know it, but laziness can often overcome us and even more so now that we don’t leave home. Keeping our face clean every day will help us close the pores, eliminate excess water, reduce inflammation of the skin and reduce the redness of the dilated capillaries, giving the skin a fresh appearance. The idea is to do it when we get up and when we go to bed.

You can use your usual pharmacy toner or homemade formulas such as cucumber and lemon toner. This 100% natural homemade facial toner can also be drunk to take advantage of the benefits it brings to the skin. To prepare it, you have to make a smoothie with a medium cucumber and half a lemon.

Apple cider vinegar toner is also another very simple option to make. Make sure it is organic and not pasteurized so that it retains all its minerals and vitamins and mixes one part of vinegar with four parts of water. That’s easy! Do not forget to also apply them to the neck and décolleté.

2 Homemade masks to exfoliate your skin  

It serves to eliminate dead cells that accumulate on the surface of the skin, preventing it from breathing. Exfoliation accelerates this natural phenomenon by stimulating cell regeneration and surface blood microcirculation. Thus, the skin regains its softness and flexibility.

One of the homemade formulas is to apply a little brown sugar and honey to the face in gentle friction and rinse with lukewarm water. Another formula is to mix several strawberries with honey and apply the paste on the face for about 15 minutes and rinse with lukewarm water. Citric acid from strawberries together with honey exerts a disinfectant and astringent effect, ideal for oily skin with blackheads.

With both, you will see the exfoliating, nourishing, and toning effect. You will notice renewed skin!

3 Homemade masks to hydrate the skin well

Mask for dry skin. If, on the other hand, your skin is dry, you need ingredients that hydrate much more. Mash the pulp of a banana and an avocado and mix them with a little honey and a mild moisturizing cream. Apply it on the face and leave it for 20 minutes before removing it.

An effective mask for skin blemishes. For this problem, we show you two solutions. Mix one tablespoon of honey and one lemon or mash half a cucumber with a little parsley and a few tablespoons of sesame oil. In both cases, apply the mixture and after 15 minutes you can remove it.

4 Reduce bags and dark circles

With potato and cucumber, you will notice the difference in these two areas. Although it may seem like something out of a movie, both the potato and the cucumber work to reduce puffiness and dark circles and decongest the look. In both cases, you only have to cut a couple of slices and apply them on the eyes for 20-30 minutes. Marvel!

5 Illuminate the face

To achieve an illuminating effect, opt for a mask prepared with very fresh crushed cucumber and a few drops of lemon. You will be able to close the pore, unify the tone and leave a fresh and smooth complexion. If your skin is dry or sensitive, you can substitute the lemon for crushed avocado. Your skin will look different…
