What are the natural beauty techniques?

In fact, the core of natural beauty that everyone often asks about is skin care methods that do not rely on invasive medical beauty or high-concentration chemical synthesis products. They are based on daily accessible ingredients, native plants, and lifestyle behaviors. The truly commonly used and implementable content basically revolves around the three directions of food, skin care, and work and rest. It is neither the "you can change your face with just one use"" that is spread online, nor is it a completely useless IQ tax.

The most common pitfall is external skin care. Many people think that "natural is safe". Freshly cut aloe vera, cucumber with seeds, and undiluted lemon juice are directly applied to the face. I did this two years ago. I wanted to use lemon to whiten my face, but it took five minutes to apply it on my face. It stung and turned red, and it took a week for the allergy to subside. My best friend with sensitive skin was even worse. She broke off fresh aloe vera grown at home and applied it on her face to remove acne. Her face was swollen for three days. I went to the hospital and the doctor said that the emodin in the fresh aloe vera had not been removed and was more irritating to sensitive skin than many preservatives. On the contrary, the method my mother has used for more than 20 years is more reliable. She keeps the water from the second wash of japonica rice and puts it in the refrigerator for three days to ferment. Every time she washes her face, she pours a little of it and mixes it with warm water. She has dry and sensitive skin, and even now in her 50s, there are very few red blood streaks on her face. However, my oily-skinned cousin tried it once and said that she felt bored after washing it, and she also broke out two pimples the next day. This thing really picks the skin type, and there is no universal standard answer.

Compared with what is applied on the face, the eating part is actually not less controversial. Many people think that to replenish collagen, they have to eat pig trotters every day. I ate it for half a month last year to nourish my skin. Not much collagen was visible, and I gained three pounds in weight. My friend in the nutrition department said that the collagen in pig trotters is a large molecule. When eaten, it is converted into heat first, and very little of it reaches the skin. Instead, it is better to grab a handful of blueberries and add two or three kiwis every day. The vitamin C supplement can help the body synthesize collagen. I persisted for more than half a year, and my face that turns red during the change of seasons has indeed stabilized a lot. However, some colleagues who followed it for two months said it had no effect. After careful questioning, I found out that she stayed up until two or three o'clock every day, and no matter what skin-nourishing food she ate, it could not offset the effects of staying up late.

Many people look for natural beauty tips and always focus on eating and applying them, but ignore the most cost-effective part. In order to whiten my face last summer, I applied high-power sunscreen and wore a mask every day. As a result, my skin turned white faster than Aunt Zhang downstairs, who only went out to buy groceries in the evening every day. Only later did I realize that hard sunscreen itself is the most natural way to whiten. You don’t need to apply anything on your face, as long as you avoid the ultraviolet rays at noon, it is safer and more effective than any whitening essence. Also, I stayed up all night for a week working on a project, and my face looked as if I had aged five years. No expensive facial mask could save me. Then I forced myself to go to bed before 11 o'clock. In just half a month, half of the bags under my eyes disappeared and my face became brighter. No natural ingredients can compare to this.

Nowadays, two factions are arguing fiercely on the Internet. One faction says that natural beauty is all about IQ tax, and the other faction says that natural beauty products are better than any industrial products. In fact, they are quite extreme. It is a low-irritation, low-cost skin care option. Don’t have unrealistic expectations of whitening in seven days and lightening spots in ten days. If you stick to the method that suits you for a long time, you will indeed see changes. If you follow the trend blindly, you will easily make your face worse.
