As time passes by, our skin ages and natural elements reduce
its strength and elasticity. Luckily, there are two simple ingredients that can
fight against wrinkles and loose skin.
This recipe for skin tightening aids in
firming skin and gives a younger look that will last long.
Why these ingredients are beneficial?
Cucumbers
Ingredients in cucumber restore the skin in a natural way.
Antioxidants, such as vitamins C and K fight free radicals which actually cause
wrinkles and loose the skin. Silica in cucumbers is the most important
ingredients that fights wrinkles and supports connective tissue growth.
Egg White
Eggs have many benefits, including their ability to tighten
skin.
How to prepare it?
Cut the cucumber in half and peel the skin off one half.
Then, slice the peeled cucumber half into smaller pieces, no bigger than 1 inch
each.
Put the cucumber parts in a blender and blend for 2 minutes
on medium speed. The mixture should become pulp.
Next, place a strainer over a bowl and apply the pulp onto
the strainer. Let the juice drain into the bowl and push it using a spoon to
extract the additional juice.
Then, add 1 egg white and mix together.
Apply the resulted mixture to the body part that needs
tightening. Let it sit for 15 minutes and then wash off with cool water.
For best results, use the mask once or twice weekly.
