But, before proceeding to the methods of preparing toning masks for dry skin, we will take a closer look at the peculiarities of such a cosmetic defect as dry skin of the face and the rules of caring for it. The main characteristic for dry skin is its brilliant appearance, barely noticeable pores, peeling and increased sensitivity to external factors of influence. This type of skin is very painful, when soap is used during washing. Therefore, use of soap is strictly prohibited. Another feature of dry skin of the face is the strong influence of cold or heat on it. Therefore, in summer or winter, such skin requires special care.
The cause of dry skin can be various factors. This is a heredity, excessive use of drying agents during washing, the reaction is all the same for soap or alcohol lotions for the face. Also, you can include incorrectly selected decorative cosmetics or skin care cream.
As we have already said, this type of skin requires very careful and proper care. Every evening, before going to bed, the person is recommended to wipe with special moisturizing milk or apply intensively active cream. Very good effect gives a special face wash, which is easy and easy to prepare yourself. To do this, we need 150 grams of pork fat and about 10 drops of salicylic alcohol. Pig fat is pre-melted with a steam bath, and then, when it cools down, add alcohol and mix it. Use this remover for 5 minutes, applying it on the entire surface of the face. After that, it is removed with a cotton swab and wash face with warm water.
By the way, if you remember, soap very much overdries the skin and because of this, its condition can deteriorate noticeably. We recommend washing the face with the flesh of ordinary gray bread. Bread should be placed in water and, when it is dehydrated, put it on the face, leaving for 3 minutes. Then it is necessary to wash with warm water. Also you can wash with cold water with fresh milk (1: 1). This will help to retain moisture.
Not a bad result will give you personally prepared face cleansing solution. Take 20 grams of any cologne, 70 grams of water with two grams of borax dissolved there and 5 grams of glycerin and natural honey. All this is thoroughly mixed. Such a solution can be used before applying a tonic mask.
Also, a good oil cleanses the skin. We take a cotton swab and moisten it in boiled water, squeeze well and again moisten, only in oil. Then you can wipe your face with it. By the way, it will be nice if, after rubbing, you leave a layer of oil on the skin for 1 minute, and then remove it with a cotton swab dipped in plain black tea. This procedure is recommended to do every day before going to bed.
Remember that before going out to the street, you should always apply a special moisturizing cream on your face, and then tone remedy or powder.
Most of all, the hassle, dry skin brings in the winter season. Because of the cold on the face there are frequent ecdysises and inflammations in the form of red spots. Therefore, in the winter, the person is recommended to wipe with decoction from flax seeds and be sure to use intensive nourishing creams, which should include vitamin A. Also, in winter, it is recommended, as often as possible, to use special face masks (karatin).
