7 Natural Anti-Aging Remedies for Your Skin

Facebook female communities are bombarded with anti-aging skincare tips. Every day a new product is reviewed and users claim that it makes you look 20 years younger. With all the tips and costly products reviewed, there are some natural remedies that work perfectly for anti-aging. They are found in every kitchen, don’t require any preparation time, and easy to use.

Natural anti-aging remedies:

 

• Aloe vera gel
• Banana mask
• Cucumber
• Olive oil + lemon juice mask
• Argan oil
• Green tea
• Jojoba oil

 

Aloe vera gel

Avoiding wrinkles is related to continuous hydration of the skin. Aloe vera gel is one of the recommended remedies to moisturize your skin, especially after a derma roller session. It also contains antioxidants that encourage cell growth and slow down the free radicals that cause skin damage.

 

Banana mask

Bananas contain oils and vitamins that boost collagen production and thus reduce wrinkles. Here is how you can prepare the mask:

 

• Mash a banana with honey.
• Apply on your face and leave it for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Then rinse your face with warm water.

 

Cucumber

Cucumbers are high in water and other essential nutrients like magnesium, potassium, and vitamins A and E. They promote blood circulation, reduce wrinkles especially around the eye, and make the face look glowing. Slice cucumbers and place them over your eyes.

 

Olive oil + lemon juice mask

This is a perfect combination for anti-aging. Olive oil is rich in monounsaturated fats and vitamins B and D. This doesn’t only prevent the appearance of new wrinkles but also heals existing ones. Lemon juice contains alpha-hydroxy acid, a common ingredient in anti-aging treatments. It helps get rid of the layer of dead skin cells. To prepare the mask:

 

• Mix one spoon of olive oil with one spoon of lemon juice.
• Apply on your face and leave it for 10 minutes.
• Then wash your face.

 

Argan oil

Being rich in antioxidants and vitamin E, it perfectly works for eye wrinkles, puffs, and dark circles. Place a few drops of argan oil on your fingertips, gently massage the area around your eyes in a circular motion, then wash your face with warm water.

Green tea

Green tea is effective when you want to avoid wrinkles because it’s rich in antioxidants. It opens up the pores and helps get rid of the bags under the eyes. After preparing a cup of green tea, wait for it to warm. Soak a small piece of cloth in it and place it over your eyes.

 

Jojoba oil

When it comes to avoiding wrinkles, look for something rich in vitamin E like jojoba oil. It works against the free radicals. Place a few drops of jojoba oil on your fingertips and massage your forehead for a couple of minutes. Leave it for 20 minutes, then rinse your face with warm water.
