The age of the woman "gives out" arms, neck, and most importantly wrinkles. It is very important to what extent care of the skin of the face in the elderly is attentive. In the elderly, the structure of the face changes, the skin of the face has such drawbacks as "bags" under the eyes, wrinkles in the eyes, lips and forehead, as well as saggy, flabby skin. Completely eliminate these deficiencies possible only in a surgical way. But not every woman can afford expensive operations, and there is nothing to it. After all, there are simpler ways to care for the face skin in the elderly.
Very useful for aging face skin daily morning cleansings with cold boiled water with the addition of lemon juice: 15-20g per glass of water. Wipe the face with ice cubes from water or milk, diluted 1: 1 with water. A good effect on facial skin care is given by contrasting facial cleansers and lotions, starting with warm procedures, ending with cold (only 5 alternations). The hydro massage procedure is also effective. It can be carried out while taking a shower. A strong stream of water should massage the lower part of the face to eliminate the stitch on the cheekbones. With vertical wrinkles around the mouth and on the bridge of the nose in elderly women, it is useful to use such self-massage techniques: you should place your fingers parallel to each other and perpendicular to the wrinkle. You need to squeeze the skin with your fingers, while fingers should not touch. Then, moving your hand from the bottom up, you need to press, wringing the wrinkle in the other direction, thereby smoothing it.
