How to prepare natural masks for dry skin

It is produced by prolonged exposure to the sun's ultraviolet rays.

 Likewise, it also has to do with hormonal outflows, bad eating habits and prolonged use of certain chemical products.

How collagen is used for hair

Let's know what collagen is and how it intervenes in hair health while we go into cosmetic treatments with this nutrient.

What is collagen

First, we have to say what collagen is, which is not only good for hair. It is a protein, this is one of the types of bricks with which the body is built.

It is necessary for the firmness and elasticity of the skin, for the nails, for muscles, for the strength of the bones ... and for the hair. It is considered that 25% of our body is made up of these essential proteins.

How collagen works for hair

The part that forms part of the hair structure belongs to the V type and is responsible for providing firmness, elasticity, body, and smoothness. It tends to disappear with age and external aggressions (sun, air, wind, hair dryers or hairdressing treatments). As a result of that lack or loss, the hair turns off, becomes weak, brittle, ugly, dull and may fall.

When to use collagen for hair

In essence, it serves to regenerate hair that is:

Tremendously punished, ugly and with split ends or cannot be repaired with a simple cut.

As an emergency treatment for long manes that have lost their body.

For those people who, due to stress, illness or bad hygiene, have damaged their hair so badly that they need this emergency shock.

Remember that when we say collagen for hair, we are always talking about beauty, cosmetics, and hairdressing. If you have suffered a mishap or an aggressive drug treatment, under no circumstances should you use the most aggressive methods without consulting your doctor?

How collagen is used, served or put

It can be done in different ways, either in a unique way or by combining several of them. Write down the following:

In the market, there are pills that can be ingested to recover these proteins. It will be visible not only in the hair but also in the health of cartilage, bones, nails, and skin.

There is also a wide range of shampoos, masks, and serums with this protein. Those that work best are those that are combined with keratin and, above all, for smooth hair.

In recent years, a specific hair recovery treatment using collagen has been introduced in specialized hairdressing salons. It requires at least one hour and the session is not cheap, although it will depend on the professional. It is usually advertised as collagen treatments for hair. 

As if it were a dye, you will be taking small strands that are coated with this protein. It is then sealed with a special plate. It continues until the entire mane is finished. You have to let act, wash and comb to taste.

What vegans should know about collagen for hair

Almost all products based on this protein are extracted from the slaughter of animals. Although there are some more respectful shampoos and capsules that are made from seaweed, you should ask before in your aesthetic center or read the composition of the container.

How to take collagen naturally

Regardless of whether you care for your hair with high-end products, such as in relation to the beauty of the rest of the body, healthy life is what enables the optimal levels of collagen. So write down:

1. Take a proper diet and introduce the seaweed in your salads and soups.
2. Milk and nuts, for vegans, are the best options.
3. Do not damage your hair with chemical products.
4. If possible, keep it away from the sun, wind, and sand.

Our advice ...

There are some masks with collagen for hair made with respect to the environment that are a blessing. Look for them and let yourself be pampered with them.

How to use the lemon to have a beautiful and healthy skin

The skin is a reflection of our state of health but also of our state of mind, therefore, we must take care of it and pay attention to it.

Using lemon to have a beautiful and healthy skin is a good step to get the image you are looking for, as well as to take care of your self-esteem.

The skin indicates how we are inside. However, this is sometimes an inconvenience. Stress, lack of sleep, fatigue can reveal something of us that we do not want. It is even capable of negatively influencing our mood.

Therefore, it is best to take good care of this aspect. It is very important to look in the mirror and find a healthy image. It fills us with positive energy, necessary to start the day. This is especially important when we are going through a bad patch.

For this, it is best to resort to products that are as natural as possible. These products respect our nature and hardly cause side effects. Today we are going to talk about lemon and how you can use it to enjoy its many benefits.

Why use lemon to have beautiful and healthy skin

As with all citrus fruits, lemon is rich in vitamin C, making it a great antioxidant. As a result, it will delay the appearance of wrinkles and time stamps.

In this line, it also helps to produce melanin, so the regeneration of the skin is much simpler.

Also, this vitamin is used as a healing. It is not strange that we have small wounds on the skin, due to hair removal or the appearance of acne or blackheads.

Lemon juice helps eliminate the marks or, at least, reduce them.

It also has the advantage that it serves as an exfoliant. In this way, we will get rid of all the impurities and fats that we have attached to the skin.

At the same time, we will achieve a firm and clear complexion, which will give us a luminous image.

How to use the lemon to have a beautiful and healthy skin

Exfoliate the skin with lemon and sugar

As you know, every scrub needs a solid component to open pores. In this case, it is the white sugar grains.

Do not fall into the temptation of using salt, because it absorbs water from the skin, so it tends to dry it.

I may be surprised that an ingredient so harmful to our body, is recommended in this case. It is because the skin does not filter the glucose, so it does not go inside.

In addition, its rough texture makes it a perfect instrument to achieve our goal.

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons (13 g) of white sugar.
• 3 tablespoons (45 g) of olive oil.
• 1/2 glass (125 ml) of water.
• 1/2 lemon juice

Elaboration

1. Mix the lemon juice with the water.
2. Add the sugar.
3. Pour the oil little by little and stir until homogenizing.

Application

Its effect is similar to other exfoliants. First, you must have the area very clean.

Then, apply the exfoliant with lemon to have a beautiful and healthy skin with circular massages. Take care of the pressure you exert. Thus, you will avoid possible injuries.

Tone the skin

Ingredients

• 1/2 lemon juice
• 1/2 glass (125 ml) of water.You can do more, as long as you respect the proportions.
• A cotton disk.

Elaboration

Mix the water and lemon to prevent the citrus from damaging the skin. In this way, we get rid of what does not work for us, and we take advantage of its incredible properties. However, if you notice some redness, try adding more water.

Application

Moisten the cotton disk and pass it gently over the surface you want to treat.

Do not rinse until after 20 minutes. During this time, the lemon will work to cleanse, tighten and tone the skin.

Then, withdraw the preparation with plenty of cold water and dry it. After this, the ideal is to use moisturizer to finish the treatment effectively.

As you know, to keep the skin beautiful and healthy, it is essential to take the steps we have talked about: exfoliate, tone and moisturize.

In the latter case, there are also natural solutions, such as coconut cream and grapefruit that you can use in the shower.

The skin is our letter of introduction. Therefore, it is desirable to take care of it to give the best version of ourselves.

On the other hand, it is also fundamental for self-esteem, since it greatly influences how we perceive ourselves.

7 makeup tips for oily skin girls

If we have oily skin we should base the choice of all our makeup products on this, since, otherwise, we can worsen the condition and over-stimulate the production of fat.

Applying makeup when we have oily skin can be a real challenge. Makeup removes and melts easily, clogs pores and causes a host of other skin problems.

However, if you consider the following makeup tips for girls with oily skin, you will achieve a matte and soft texture throughout the day.

1. Prepare your skin before makeup

The first of the makeup tips for girls with oily skin consists of preparing the face before applying makeup. This will improve the appearance and time the products last on the skin.

For this you need:

1. Exfoliate. Removing dead skin cells helps equalize its texture for a smoother finish. Opt for soft exfoliants designed specifically for your skin type.
2. Use this product at least once a week and maximum three times a week.

Hydrate. Exfoliation can cause some dryness that will be counteracted with more fat. Control this oil production providing the necessary nutrition.

2. Always use a pre-base before makeup

The second of the tips help make the makeup stay in place and with the correct consistency.

• It covers the areas most likely to generate fat (forehead, nose, and chin) with a light, opaque and oil-free pre-base. The best options are those that are in powder form.
• Before placing the base, make sure your face is clean and dry. Remember that it is applied to the makeup base, the compact powder or any other makeup.

3. Choose bases with satin or matte finish

Another of the makeup tips for girls with oily skin is to use mousse or powder makeups that provide a satin to matt finish.

• Look for formulas that do not contain oil and that are water-based. For lasting makeup, choose mineral options that do not have fragrance.
• This type of product will prevent clogging of pores and the appearance of annoying acne.
• To apply the base, use a brush or brush. This will help to better fill the pores and absorb more of the excess oil without encouraging the production of fat.

4. Do not use too much dust

One of the key makeup tips for girls with oily skin is to use everything with size. Although the powders provide a silky finish, an excess of compact powder clogs the pores, increases the risk of infection and creates acne.

• Apply the powder only in those areas that require it and without exceeding the amount.
• It is also important to use a translucent matt formula as these cut the shine in any skin tone.
• If you applied too much powder, moisten a makeup sponge and remove the excess with small taps.

5. Always carry blotting papers with you

No matter how impeccable and matte your makeup looks in the morning: if you are prone to oiliness, your face will shine again in a few hours. In that case, the drying sheets are one of the great allies of makeup for girls with oily skin.

The trick to using these blotting papers without removing all the makeup is to press the paper in the greasy area and then remove it from the skin.

Avoid rubbing the paper on the skin at all costs. In this way, the paper will absorb the oils while leaving makeup pigments intact.

6. Remove the remains of makeup at the end of the day

Once the day is over, it is extremely important to remove the remains of makeup from the skin. Leaving the makeup throughout the night clogs the pores and causes imperfections. You must follow a daily cleaning routine.

Use a mild astringent tonic that contains salicylic acid to improve skin texture and pore size.

If you also have sensitive skin, it will be necessary to try several options before finding one that does not irritate your dermis.

7. Uses sunscreen designed for oily skin

Many women with oily skin do not use sunscreen because they find them too greasy or afraid to cover their pores.

However, you can not forget that exposure to the sun without a protector can cause sunspots, freckles and premature aging.

Therefore, the advice of makeup for girls with oily skin is to buy a gel or light texture sunscreen with SPF greater than 50.

Combat oily skin improving your habits

In addition to having a proper makeup routine, remember to stay away from fast food and sugars. It is also important to drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and eliminate toxins.

All these cares together will help you regulate the amount of oil your skin produces. Do you have any other makeup advice for greasy skin girls?

Exfoliation to renew the skin in depth

To renew the skin in depth we will have to take into account the importance of exfoliation.

If for many people the basis of a good facial and corporal hygiene is the use of soapy substances, or of a cleansing milk and a tonic, these should begin to take into account the great importance of a good exfoliation that regenerates and prepares the skin for the application of a specific cosmetic product such as a moisturizer or a serum.

And why stress in this exfoliation? Very easy, because a bunch of dead cells create a barrier on our skin and, no matter how much you apply a serum and a cream, without having exfoliated the skin previously, it is to throw away the product and discard money, as simple as that. But let's go by steps, and explain deeply why the importance of exfoliating the skin.

On the skin accumulate remains of dead cells that have already fulfilled their work of nutrition and oxygenation, as well as protect against external factors: sun, wind... Along with these dead cells, are also traces of environmental dirt, remains of sweat and sometimes makeup that has not been removed properly.

When a peel, exfoliation or scrub is performed.

1. Immediately the skin is smoother, brighter and smoother.
2. The color is revived thanks to the circulatory stimulation and acquires a very healthy tone.
3. The skin is oxygenated and helps eliminate small wrinkles and imperfections.
4. Prevents the signs of premature aging.
5. By reducing part of the stratum corneum (the superficial layer of the skin, which we palpate) and exerting a deep hygiene of the skin, the cosmetic products penetrate better.
6. The skin tans evenly.

There are many types of exfoliants

1. Mechanical exfoliants, which contain small granules: as marine salts, apricot kernel powder, coconut, bamboo particles ...

Myths and truths of laser hair removal

Before submitting to laser hair removal it is convenient that we know the myths and truths that surround this practice so as not to deceive us and make it much safer and more effective.

Have you ever considered performing laser hair removal? Sure, but in the end, you have not dared to do it for certain myths that surround this type of hair removal.

The problem of this lies in ignorance and in that there are other methods that we know and that do not generate any doubt. Maybe because our friends use them and because laser hair removal is not among their options.

For this reason, and to shed some light on this method of hair removal unknown to some people, we will discover some myths and truths of laser hair removal. In this way, we will solve any doubts we may have. Go for it!

Myths about laser hair removal

We will start by solving some myths about laser hair removal that are quite widespread and that is not true. Myths that generate fear and doubts and that prevent people who might be interested in accessing this type of hair removal.

1. Laser hair removal causes skin cancer

There are people who believe that laser hair removal causes skin cancer because they consider it a very aggressive method with it. However, laser hair removal destroys the hair but does not damage the skin at any time.

However, it is true that those who have a history of skin cancer should go before the doctor to give them their approval to undergo this type of hair removal.

Due to his background, it may not be good to be exposed to laser hair removal.

2. Laser hair removal is very painful

Many people believe that laser hair removal is very painful because they have heard that some people put on a previous cream to notice less pain. However, this depends on the sensitivity of each person. However, the reality is that the inconveniences are minimal.

Laser hair removal is not painful nor will it cause us to not return from pain. Yes, you feel a slight sensation of heat, but nothing that we can not tolerate.

3. Laser hair removal is very expensive

We may initially believe that laser hair removal is expensive. However, we must see the benefits that we will achieve in the long term.

Well, are we aware of the ones we spend monthly on hair removal bands or waxes? What does our hair bite when we depilate with a blade? In the time that we lose ourselves when we are waxed with an electric razor?

Laser hair removal is a very good investment that saves time and money in the long term. With the passage of time and after several sessions, we will only have to go once a year to review and sometimes not even that!

Everything depends on the thickness of our hairs and their growth.

Truths of laser hair removal

Once we have seen the myths of laser hair removal more common, we will discover the truths that it contains.

Surely, now we are more calm about many doubts we had and we will understand much more what this method of hair removal consists of.

1. People with thin, blond hair will not work

It is true that not all people will have a depilatory laser treatment. People who have fine, very blond hair are very likely not to be able to undergo this method because it will be a waste of money.

The reason why this method does not work in this type of skin is that having little melanin will need a greater number of sessions to obtain results and, even then, they will not be insured.

2. Before each session, you have to shave

This is another truth about laser hair removal and is that, although it seems a nuisance, always before going to a hair removal session of this type you have to shave the area. Although we already have a few hairs, we have to do it.

It is important that we know that we should not pull the hair. The reason is that the laser has to act on the hair weakening it to detach and not grow back. If there is no hair, laser hair removal will not work.

3. You have to be careful with the sun

Many people believe that they should not be exposed to the sun after waxing, but what they do not know is that they should not do it before. In general, it is recommended not to expose yourself to the sun neither 3 days before nor 3 days later.

Also, it will be important to use a sunscreen with high protection and avoid using any type of self-tanner. The skin will be sensitive and exposed and, if we put it in the sun without following these measures, we can injure it.

If you have ever submitted to laser hair removal, we would like to know your experience. If you have not done it yet, would you be encouraged to do it? Do you think it would be a good option for you?
