Many young women believe that facial skin needs to be taken care of when the signs of aging appear. This is their main mistake. Perhaps at the age of 25 and 30, the face looks attractive, there are no wrinkles, but the aging process of the epidermis has already begun. Its aging is influenced not only by age, but also by the environment. You don't have to wait for a certain age to stay young and beautiful. It is necessary to take care of your face regularly and comprehensively to prolong its youth.
Facial skin care at home
Keeping the young skin of the face as long as possible is the desire of women of all ages. This is possible if you perform three phases morning and evening: cleansing, exfoliation and hydration. The products used for this purpose must be selected individually, depending on the type of skin (oily, dry and normal).
The advice of cosmetologists boils down to the following:
- Remove makeup by washing with a cleansing gel, foam or emulsion. The procedure superficially cleanses the face.
- With a cotton swab soaked in any demakilant (oil, cleansing milk, etc. ), makeup residues are carefully removed from the face. Use cleansers designed for the eye and lip area or for the face, excluding the eye area. The makeup is rinsed off until the cosmetic disc is clean.
- Tone the skin with toners or lotions.
- Apply a moisturizer.
Note!No matter how expensive a face cream is, its properties will be reduced to zero if applied to poorly cleansed skin.
Features of care for aged skin
Many women await the onset of their 35-40s with fear and tension. The first wrinkles appear, the oval of the face begins to float, shadows appear under the eyes. There are many ways to force time to slow down. Youth cannot be restored, but beauty is worth fighting for. Therefore, every woman is looking for options on how to rejuvenate the skin.
The main secret in the care of aging skin is an integrated approach, which consists of regularity and completeness. Folk remedies will help to achieve good skin condition and even tighten the emerging flights for women over 50. The procedures can be performed at home without going to the spa salons.
In body and face care, the main algorithm is skin cleansing. For women over forty, peeling works well. It must be done at least 2 times a week. Thanks to this procedure, the upper layer of cells is removed, their exfoliation occurs, which opens the pores for the penetration of nourishing masks into the skin.
How to wash your face
How to properly wash the face to preserve youth? Aging skin needs water. Dehydration leads to dryness, the formation of wrinkles. The skin loses its ability to regenerate. Therefore, the main task of women over 40 is the hydration of the epidermis.

Attention!Do not forget that the water you need to drink during the day also plays an important role and no less than the external humidity. You need to drink at least 1. 5 liters of clean water per day.
Melted or thermal water is considered the best remedy for washing your face. There are many impurities in tap water that can negatively affect the skin. Melt water can be obtained by freezing it in the freezer compartment of the refrigerator. As a last resort, you can wash your face with boiled and cooled water.
Instead of the usual morning wash, you can use ice cubes for the face, for the youth and elasticity of the skin. There are many recipes for cosmetic ice.

The benefits of cosmetic ice are undeniable, it is a quick and powerful cooling effect.
To achieve the intended effect, you need to adhere to three main rules:
- The ice cube must be constantly moved over the face so as not to excessively cool the skin;
- Ice should be wrapped with a napkin so that the fingers do not freeze;
- Move the cubes with both hands along the facial massage lines, performing three approaches.

Note!Not everyone can use face ice cubes to restore youthfulness and elasticity to the skin. Cosmetologists recommend stopping ice sessions for people with skin problems, its diseases and, when using ice, who notice deterioration of the skin.
How to restore elasticity to facial skin at home
Skin cleansing, or exfoliation, can be done at home using fruit porridge. Thanks to the acid contained in them, when the baby food is applied to the face, the protein compounds on which the upper film of the epidermis is retained dissolve. The baby food mask should be kept for 15 minutes. Peeling recipes can use kiwi, currants, raspberries, blackberries or puree from a mixture of these.
A wonderful peeling mask made of cosmetic clay, which is applied to the face for 20-25 minutes. It takes out the toxins accumulated from the pores of the skin. Luxurious peeling for body and face - coffee for sleep, is able to restore youth to the skin and maintain its tone.
After peeling, it is necessary to deeply moisturize the skin: these are glycerin-based masks that can restore the structure of the epidermis. They compete quite well with mesotherapy injections, which are performed in beauty salons. Rejuvenation occurs with a massage with oil or honey, which restores the oval of the face and activates blood circulation.
Facial skin rejuvenation in the salon

Therefore, cosmetologists do not tire of repeating the axiom that there are no ugly women, there are lazy women who do not strive to look better. Now it is possible to find a young face for oneself even in old age. Plastic surgery works wonders. But before you switch to plastic, you should have your feet headed to a beautician and undergo procedures that at home cannot rejuvenate the skin sufficiently. These procedures include hardware peeling, ultrasound, vacuum, and microdermabrasion.
Laser resurfacing of the face produces a deep peeling, which gives a renewal effect for at least 5-6 years. This is a salon procedure that is not done at home.
There is such a procedure as enzyme peeling. This is a type of superficial peel in which dead skin cells are exfoliated. It does not remove deep wrinkles, but it is able to renew the epidermis. If this procedure is carried out a couple of times a month, it is possible to ensure the preservation of the freshness of the face.
