How To Make Your Own Wrinkle Cream
Women with sensitive skin often have trouble finding skin care products that can also be used as a wrinkle remedy. The chemicals and exfoliants used in wrinkle creams can be too harsh for some skin types. As an alternative, these women look to natural, plant based products that plump up the skin and smooth away those unsightly lines and discolorations. You can even make a new wrinkle cream using common ingredients from your kitchen. In this article, we'll talk about some of the natural ingredients that can be substituted for an over-the-counter, anti aging wrinkle cream.
Natural anti wrinkle creams contain oils, botanical extracts and other naturally derived compounds to rejuvenate and restore damaged and dry skin. One of the most common problems is crow's feet. To treat the delicate, sensitive skin around the eyes, it's best to use an oil instead of a cream because it is absorbed more easily. A natural, anti-wrinkle remedy can be made using jojoba oil, evening primrose oil and carrot seed essential oil. Jojoba oil is very similar to the natural oils found in your skin, while evening primrose oil is a rich source of gamma linolenic acid (GLA.) Evening primrose oil also contains minerals, vitamins and essential fatty acids that moisturizes dry, mature and sensitive skin, and helps the skin cells to regenerate. Carrot seed essential oil is believed to encourage skin cells to rejuvenate themselves. To make the emulsion, combine 1 ounce of jojoba oil, one capsule of evening primrose oil and 10 drops of carrot seed essential oil into a bottle and shake well. Keep your new wrinkle cream oil stored in a cool, dark place and it should stay fresh for about 6 months.
For a wrinkle cream that is organic and easy to make, take a look at your fruit bowl. Applying the juice of green pineapples and apples to the face daily for 10-15 minutes is an excellent way to smooth fine lines and wrinkles while repairing cracked skin. Banana is wonderful as an anti wrinkle treatment and it smells great. Simply mash 1/4 of a banana until it has a creamy texture and spread it all over face. After about 15-20 minutes, rinse your face with warm water until clean and finish with a splash of cold water to close your pores. You won't believe how soft your skin feels. For a nourishing facial, open up a jar of honey. Start by placing a washcloth soaked in warm water on your face to open your pores. Smooth a layer of honey over your skin and let it sit for up to thirty minutes. Rinse with warm water and finish with cold water to close your pores. Active Manuka Honey from New Zealand is believed to be the best honey for this wrinkle treatment. Studies have shown that Active Manuka Honey encourages cell renewal and helps it produce stronger collagen. Collagen is what gives your skin elasticity. This honey also contains very high levels of antioxidants and enzymes.
Many over-the-counter products are now incorporating natural ingredients into their blends. There are a few ingredients that you should look for. Shea Butter is a natural skin moisturizer that is good for preventing new wrinkles from developing. It's also good for repairing sun damaged skin. Lavender essential oil is believed to work as a detoxifier that cleanses your skin and helps it to regenerate itself. As a bonus, the refreshing fragrance of lavender has a therapeutic, relaxing effect. Tea extracts, like green or black tea, also have antioxidant qualities that neutralize free radicals, which dull the skin.
If you're fed up with expensive treatments for wrinkles that don't work, and you want a new wrinkle cream that is all-natural, then check out the produce section of your supermarket. You'll find nature's anti wrinkle treatments at a much lower price. If you're crazy about vitamin rich bananas, then make a banana mask with cream, honey and oats. This simple mask will exfoliate and soften your skin, giving it a healthy glow. Do you love papayas? Then save the peel and rub it on your skin to exfoliate dead cells. Papaya juice also lightens freckles and brown spots and will leave your skin super soft.
