Having radiant, smooth and firm skin without wrinkles or other cosmetic imperfections is every woman’s dream and at the same time a never-ending battle.
As soon as you get rid of one skin problem, another appears. Sometimes it’s redness, other times eczema, clogged pores or acne, or dark circles under the eyes or sagging skin.
Main problem of most cosmetic products
The most serious problem of most cosmetic products is their content of harmful chemicals. They tend to mask one problem only to cause another later on.
You’ve surely noticed that former celebrities who used an excessive amount of cosmetics throughout their lives often have the worst skin.
That amount of cosmetics may have temporarily given them a nice-looking complexion at first glance, but underneath damage occurred that manifested over time and then these celebrities looked much worse for their age than they should have.
Many of these products are also quite expensive and therefore burden the household budget.
That’s why today we will reveal an extremely simple alternative way to care for your skin so that it remains healthy and retains its youthful appearance for as long as possible.
The best part is that you will need only a few common, inexpensive and easily available ingredients. They will ensure that the skin on your face is properly hydrated, nourished and free of various pathogenic bacteria.
The result will be radiant, smooth and firm skin with the maximum suppression of the visibility of wrinkles achievable for your age.
Ingredients
You will need the following ingredients:
- baking soda
- coconut oil
You can find baking soda in almost any grocery store or drugstore.
Baking soda maintains the proper pH of the skin and prevents the proliferation of harmful bacteria. It also cleans the skin well, soothes sunburn, treats acne, rashes and improves the skin’s complexion.
Coconut oil supplies the skin with natural oils, hydrates it, unclogs pores and suppresses inflammation in acne, eczema or redness.
Today coconut oil is fairly commonly available in supermarkets, or you can buy it online – in Slovakia HERE and in the Czech Republic HERE .
Instructions for skin care
Proceed as follows:
1. Mix both ingredients in a ratio of 2 parts coconut oil to 1 part baking soda. If the coconut oil is solid, put it into a glass bowl and briefly immerse the bowl in warm water to melt it.
Prepare enough of the mixture to cover your planned cleaning. A little will be enough for the face (2 + 1 teaspoons), if you want to treat other parts of the body besides the face, then prepare more of the mixture.
2. First rinse your skin with a gentle soap and lukewarm water and pat it dry with a towel.
3. Now apply the prepared mixture to the skin and leave it on for about 5 to 10 minutes.
Warning: Be careful not to get it in your eyes. Although the mixture is not aggressive for the eyes, it could cause slight stinging or redness.
4. Gently massage the skin while the mixture is on. This helps the oil absorb into the skin and the baking soda helps remove the top dead layers of skin.
5. Finally, wash the mixture off your face with warm, mildly soapy water. Rinse it once more with clean water and gently dry with a towel.
Conclusion
Repeat the procedure about 3 times a week.
It won’t take long and you will notice your skin becoming firmer, smoother, free of redness and with much less visible wrinkles.
