What are some natural beauty tips?

I have been working on natural skin care for almost 6 years, and I have stepped into pitfalls that can fill an entire storage box. There are not many techniques that can truly stand the test of time and different skin types. The core are three aspects: low-burden internal adjustment, gentle plant care, and physical protection. Most of those strange home remedies posted on the Internet are pitfalls, so don’t try them on your face easily.

The easiest thing to do and the easiest thing to do is to make internal adjustments. Last year, I worked on the Double 11 program for 19 consecutive days, and my face turned yellow like an orange that I had covered for half a month. I used two bottles of thousand-yuan repair essence, but I couldn't save it. Later, I listened to the dermatologist's advice and forced myself to sleep for 7 hours a day. I added two more pieces of steamed pumpkin and stewed tomatoes when I ate, and drank a cup of plain sugar-free yogurt with no added sugar in the afternoon. In less than half a month, my face was clear again. Later, I checked the information and found out that the carotenoids and lycopene in these common foods are natural antioxidants. They have a much higher absorption rate than beauty supplements that cost hundreds of dollars, and there is no additional metabolic burden. I have maintained this eating habit for almost a year now, and even my previous acne problem has improved a lot.

Many people think that as long as it is "natural", it is not irritating. I know this is a misunderstanding. Two years ago, a girl in the same department followed the trend of Internet celebrities and applied lemon slices directly to the face to whiten it. After applying it twice, my cheeks became red and stinging. I went out and sunbathe for half an hour. Two chloasma appeared immediately, and it took almost a year for treatment to clear up. High-concentration fruit acid applied directly to the face without dilution will not only corrode the cuticle, but the furanocoumarins in lemon are also highly photosensitive substances. If it is not protected from light, it will aggravate the pigmentation. There are also those kinds of facial masks that you make with ingredients at home. They are not sterilized and have no preservatives. They are covered with invisible bacteria after being left for half an hour. When I went to the dermatology department for follow-up visits, I saw several girls who had acne all over their faces after applying homemade honey masks. If you really want to choose natural external care, why not try chamomile hydrosol produced by a regular manufacturer? When the season changes and redness occurs, put it in the refrigerator for 10 minutes, soak it in a paper mask and apply it for 5 minutes to reduce the redness. I have used it for three or four years with no problems for my sensitive skin. It is much more cost-effective than many expensive soothing masks.

When it comes to natural anti-aging, I am most convinced by my mother. She is 54 years old and has no obvious wrinkles on her face. She has never had sun spots. Her tips are very simple. She always wears a parasol and a wide-brimmed hat when going out. She rarely wears clothes that expose her arms in summer. She only wears sunscreen unless she goes to the beach. She said that the skin itself has its own protection mechanism and adding less unnecessary burdens to it will be more effective than applying any amount of anti-aging essence. Some people have argued with her before, saying that hard sunscreen is too troublesome and it is easier to apply sunscreen. In fact, it is just a matter of throwing in an umbrella when going out. I have learned hard sunscreen from her for four years. I basically don’t wear sunscreen when commuting, and I don’t have new sun spots. My skin condition is much more stable than before when I applied two layers of sunscreen every day and removed make-up and cuticles were thin. If I really go outdoors for a long time, I will also reapply a mild physical sunscreen. The combination of the two has the best effect.

After all, there are no mysterious skills in natural beauty. The essence is not to mess with the skin, just follow its needs. Don't believe in those "seven-day whitening" natural remedies. If they really work, big-name skin care products have already been in place. Who can get Internet celebrities to teach you how to make your own.
