What are some natural beauty tips?

At present, the natural beauty techniques that have been proven to be effective by the majority of skin care practitioners are essentially care methods that are in line with the skin's metabolic rules and add less irritating ingredients. They include both external skin care operations and internal adjustment habits. However, many "natural remedies" spread on the Internet have a very high false alarm rate, so you should not follow them casually.

I went to the beach two summers ago without using sunscreen, and my face became red and black. I didn't dare to use high-concentration whitening pills, so I bought edible aloe vera. I put it in the refrigerator for half an hour, cut it into a small section, squeezed out the transparent gel and patted it on my face. I washed it off with warm water in about three minutes. After seven days of continuous use, the redness subsided and the tanned areas gradually healed. It was much gentler than a certain whitening essence I had applied before that stung my face. My bestie who has dry and sensitive skin is even better. She never uses expensive body lotions with added fragrances and preservatives in autumn and winter. Every time after taking a shower, while her skin is still a little moist, she takes a spoonful of cold-pressed coconut oil and spreads it all over her body. After massaging for two minutes, she wipes off the oil on the surface with a towel. Her skin has been very moisturized all winter, and she has never had any flakes or itchiness.

But when it comes to natural beauty, don’t think that as long as it is “natural”, it is absolutely safe. The methods spread by many Internet celebrities are very controversial. The most common one is to apply lemon slices on the face to whiten the face. A friend of mine believed this and directly put fresh lemon slices on the face. The next day, the face became red and stinging, and there were reactions. It turned several degrees darker - the organic acid concentration of fresh lemon is too high. If applied directly to the face without dilution, it will easily corrode the stratum corneum and damage the skin barrier. Some friends with oily skin said that they diluted lemon juice with pure water and then wiped their face. It did have a brightening effect, but don't try it easily on sensitive skin. What about rubbing your face with white sugar to exfoliate, and applying egg white to your face to close pores? I tried egg white before when I had no experience. After applying it, my face felt uncomfortably tight and I was so stuffy that I closed my mouth. Later I found out that there may be pathogenic bacteria in raw eggs, and applying it to a face with holes can easily lead to infection. This is the core reason why many people object to using food directly on the face.

In addition to external methods, the natural beauty skills of internal adjustment are actually more easily ignored. I used to stay up late at night to catch up on projects, and my face turned sallow as if covered with a layer of dust. When I went to see the dermatologist, they didn’t even prescribe me skin care products. Instead, I was told to use 3 dried roses every day. Soak 5 pitted red dates in warm water, drink 1500ml a day, and avoid iced milk tea and iced coffee. I insisted on it for more than two months, and my face was really brighter. It is the kind of good complexion that comes out from the inside, which is more natural than applying multiple layers of isolation. Oh, by the way, a while ago, my cousin who just finished the college entrance examination wanted to beautify her face and didn’t have much pocket money. I taught her to take out half a bowl of clear white fungus soup every time she cooked white fungus soup. After it cooled down, she applied it on her face as a mask and washed it off after 15 minutes. She persisted for more than half a month and said that the pores on her cheeks were much smaller. It cost only a few cents and was much better than the cheap masks she bought randomly before.

In fact, these natural techniques are not a panacea. They cannot change your skin in two or three days. They are gentle and low-cost. However, no matter what method you use, remember to do an allergy test behind your ears first. The one that suits you is the best.
