Pharmacy help in youth struggle
It is not necessary to prepare means to preserve and restore youthfulness of the skin of the face, you can buy some pharmacy ointments or creams:
- retinoic ointment;
- solcoseryl ointment;
- anti-aging face cream (various brands).
Retinoic ointment is an excellent antibacterial agent for various skin defects: acne, redness, redness, which with age appear stronger on the skin and last longer. Any means against defects should be applied pointwise on them, this ointment is no exception. Clean and healthy skin looks much younger and more beautiful, so you need to eliminate unpleasant manifestations.
Solcoseryl ointment - a drug that improves the penetration of oxygen into tissues. With age, the pores of the skin exacerbate this gas to the epithelium, which gradually affects its condition: it dries up, flakes, tissues lose their tone, look sluggish. Solcoseryl is applied in a thin layer over the entire face and gently rubbed into the face. Also, for people with sensitive skin, it is allowed to "dilute" the ointment with a nourishing or moisturizing cream.
Anti-aging cream is an equally popular and widely advertised remedy with truly unimaginable effects: smoothing deep wrinkles, firming the skin, etc. Almost all cosmetic companies produce a series of creams for aging skin that promise a rejuvenating effect. But it should be understood that this is only part of the truth. Age-related facial cosmetics can really smooth small wrinkles or correct unpleasant flaws, but no product can nourish the skin with collagen and cope with deep skin folds.
Such creams nourish, replenish the supply of vitamins and minerals, but do not create any "magic". They can be used in combination with other procedures, and when choosing, you need to focus on the indicated age.
General recommendations
It is not enough just to rub something on the skin and hope for a miracle! You need to change your lifestyle:
- review the menu
- make a sleep schedule
- to practice;
- find optimal cosmetic treatments (massages, masks, peels);
- reduce stress.
The menu of those who want to rejuvenate should include natural products: vegetables (green and legumes), fruits (citrus), nuts and dried fruits, dairy products (except butter), vegetable oils. The first and fourth groups contain protein and B vitamins necessary for the body, the second - the antioxidant vitamin C, the third and last contain a lot of E, which is called the "vitamin of youth". You can also buy a complex of vitamins and minerals for a certain age.
You need to sleep at least 8 hours, because all the flaws of lack of sleep appear on tired skin, and bags under the eyes in adult women disappear much longer than in young women.
Sports loads allow the skin to breathe, enrich it with oxygen, make the face fresher, smooth out facial wrinkles and remove excess subcutaneous deposits.
It is also necessary to contact a beautician, because it is quite difficult to do a professional massage or therapy yourself.
Skin rejuvenation at home is possible, but for this you need to make an effort and all procedures should be regular. You can not do without following the recommendations, only then the skin will again breathe youth and beauty.
