What are some natural beauty tips?

When it comes to reliable natural beauty techniques, there are not so many flashy folk remedies posted on the Internet. The most effective ones are the daily habits that are easily overlooked. On the contrary, many of the fruit and vegetable face application and food supplement folk remedies posted online have a high probability of being misunderstood.

To be honest, I often helped my friends in the past two years. My best friend had some acne marks on her face. I heard that fresh lemons contain high concentration of VC and can lighten the marks. She cut a slice and applied it on her face. As a result, the undiluted fruit acid directly burned her thin and sensitive cheeks to red and hot. She applied for a dermatology appointment and applied ointments for almost half a month before they disappeared. During that time, even skin care products could only use the mildest medical products, which made them a bit rougher than before.

It’s not that all natural-related techniques are useless, but many of them are really controversial. For example, the peach gum stewed with snow swallows was very popular in the past few years to supplement collagen. Dermatologists have long popularized the science. The main component of peach gum is plant polysaccharide. It cannot be directly converted into collagen in the human body, let alone supplement it. It’s on the face, but a friend of mine who insists on drinking it two or three times a week for more than half a year said that her skin is indeed moister. After careful questioning, I found out that she drinks two more glasses of water every day to make this stew, and also eats a lot less iced milk tea. Maybe her skin is getting better because she consumes less sugar and drinks enough water.

Speaking of really proven skills, I use hard sunscreen all year round, a three-piece set of wide-brimmed hat, vinyl umbrella, and sunscreen clothing. Even if I am too lazy to apply sunscreen when I go out in the summer, I will never forget these. When I went to Sanya for a week last month, my friends who were traveling with me reapplied it every two hours. The sunscreen still made me reddened by two degrees. I covered it all with hard sunscreen and didn’t even develop new sun spots. You must know that ultraviolet rays are the number one killer of skin aging. This kind of physical protection is the most natural and effective anti-aging method. It is much more cost-effective than anti-aging essences that often cost thousands.

Another little habit that I have adhered to for almost two years is to drink as much as 1800ml of warm water every day. In the past, I always used iced Americano and milk tea instead of water. Either I woke up in the morning and my face was swollen like a steamed bun, or my face was dry and powdery in the afternoon. Now that I drink enough water, my skin rarely becomes dehydrated, and even the oil production is much less. You may not believe it, but I used to apply three or four hydrating masks every week in winter, but now it is enough to apply it once every two weeks.

As for the commonly asked methods of applying cucumber slices to the face and washing the face with rice water, there is no need to kill them all at once. After cleansing healthy oily skin in summer, apply thinly sliced cucumber slices for 10 minutes and peel them off. The cooling sensation of instant hydration is really comfortable. As long as you remember to wash it off afterwards and do follow-up skin care, there will be no problem. It's a problem, but if you have sensitive skin or have a break in your skin, don't join in the fun. After all, there may be some allergenic ingredients in unpurified natural raw materials. The skin barrier is like a layer of gauze on your face. If unknown substances are randomly rubbed on it, it will take a long time to repair it.
