All women are the same in their desire to remain young and seductive as long as possible, regardless of biological age. To extend the youth in our time, many different procedures and funds are invented, but not everyone and not always available. At the same time, there are quite a few inexpensive ways to maintain women's beauty and freshness at home. One of the fairly available, simple, but very effective means - paraffin mask for the face, about the use of which we will tell further.
Indications for the use of paraffin masks
Paraffin is essentially synthetic fat, which usually replace vegetable and animal fatty acids in the perfume and cosmetic industry. Paraffin masks can be introduced into a complex of cosmetic procedures for maintaining beauty after 30 years. They help very well in the fight against beginners of skin aging, smoothing small wrinkles, seals on the skin, "goose paws" around the eyes. Regular use of paraffin masks allows you to remove the second chin, improve the contours of the face, increase the elasticity of the skin, and also eliminates the acne and normalizes the water balance of the skin.
In what cases can not be used a paraffin mask
The list of contraindications to use paraffin masks is absolutely small. Such a procedure cannot be carried out in the following cases:
- on the skin there are purulent inflamed rashes or herpes;
- the face is visible to the hematoma or fresh traces of post-gurgic intervention;
- the face is covered by multiple moles, papillomas, or there are neoplasms;
- if a series of deep peels was recently held, after which the skin was finally recovered yet;
- when a person is ill and has a high temperature.
Preparation of paraffin masks
For the preparation of paraffin mask uses only special cosmetic paraffin. Do not think to melt paraffin candles for this purpose, as they contain a lot of harmful additives.
The following ingredients will be needed for one portion of the mask:
- 40 g of paraffin;
- 10 drops of oily solution of vitamins A and E;
- 10 g of vegetable oil: olive, sunflower, grape or apricot bones.
Paraffin warming up in a suitable container on a steam bath, constantly stirring. Add vitamins, vegetable oils to it. Cool down a bit to an acceptable temperature and put on the face for 15-20 minutes in 2-3 layers. You can also add several grams of Lanolin or spermacet in the mask.
Application masks
The mask is applied only on cleaned skin. Be sure to make sure that water droplets remained on the face after cleaning, since when applied to the molten paraffin, you can get a burn. Fatty skin must be wiped with alcohol lotion, cologne or alcohol with ether, but in no case by an aqueous solution of alcohol. Very dry skin for the beginning wipe with a cotton swab, moistened in oil, and then wipe dry. A mask can be applied to the face in two ways - directly on the skin or on a thin gauze. It is done with a wide brush. Before applying the temperature of the molten paraffin should be tested on the wrist so as not to burn the face. The procedure is desirable to spend twice a week. The complex consists of 10-15 procedures in a row.
If you adhere to all given recommendations, then the positive result will be noticeable after applying the fifth-sixth mask, and after passing the full course, the skin will noticeably hang and rejuvenates.
If you have a combination skin, that is, sometimes fat or dries, then such a mask is definitely not the option .... The best goes to a beautician and choose quality care. But in any case, I recommend the Evalarov hyaluronic acid in order to moisturize the deep layers of the skin .... This is more than a better moisturizing creams, because they don't give such an effect. Especially here and the dosage of 150 mg.
