Anti Wrinkle Home Remedy Recipe
Anti-wrinkle creams are some of the more popular cosmetics available in the markets today. The good brands usually sell anywhere from $50-$200 a jar. And during these tough economic times, that amount seems too much to spend on vanity. However, there are home made recipes available that may just help in preventing fine lines and wrinkles from forming. Here are some of them.
Vitamin C is a very good source of anti-oxidants plus it is also a very good exfoliant. Oranges and other fruits rich in Vitamin C can help reduce wrinkles by helping renew skin by speeding up the peeling process of the dead upper layer of the skin. Simply dip a cotton ball on some pure orange or pineapple juice and apply liberally onto the skin. Let the juice stay for about 15 minutes and then rinse with warm water and pat dry.
To get rid of puffiness around the eyes, place a metal spoon inside the freezer overnight. Press the back of the spoon directly on the eye to help reduce puffiness. This also helps minimize lines around the eye area as well as dark circles.
For an anti-wrinkle toner, mix 2 table spoons of vodka, 1 table spoon fennel seeds and 2 tea spoons honey. Let the concoction sit for three days before initial application. For best results, use twice a day.
For an anti-wrinkle facial mask, mix ½ oz yeast with warm milk (for normal skin) or olive oil (dry skin) or 3 % hydrogen peroxide (oily skin). Whip in one egg white and the juice of half a lemon. Add a pinch of salt to the mixture and apply on the skin in layers. Leave on the skin for 20 minutes and then rinse with warm water. A full course is 20 masks. This yeast mask is full of Vitamin B which boosts blood circulation in the skin. It also clears pores and is recommended for dry or wrinkled skin.
All these concoctions can be made from the comfort of your own home with materials readily available straight from the kitchen. These recipes are inexpensive, natural and safe. But to err on the side of caution, apply these mixtures in a small area first before applying to a big area like the face to make sure that there are no allergic reactions.
