Simple, home remedies for wrinkles

The skin under the eyes is the place where fatigue, lack of sleep, and inadequate skin care reflect most quickly and clearly. It is also in this place the earliest signs of aging appear. The first wrinkles Under-eye wrinkles can appear at around 25 years of age.

It is also important to protect this area from the sun. 

Before we take radical steps, it is important to start with the basics. For our face to look favorable and fresh first of all we simply need to give it enough rest. The human body regenerates during sleepThat is why it is so important to get enough sleep. This will help not only our appearance, but also our mood and overall body performance. If you want to enjoy a nice skin, you must also eat well and remember, at least a minimum movement during the day. A healthy lifestyle will help us feel better overall, which will also translate into our appearance. 

Why do wrinkles appear? 

Skin aging is a natural, progressive process of changes in the body over time, starting from the moment of reaching maturity. As the years go by, changes occur in our entire body. The main symptoms of aging are wrinklesPale and sallow skin, loss of facial oval, reduced firmness, and discoloration. 

One of the most common symptoms of skin aging is its dryness. It is primarily the result of a decrease in the concentration of ceramides - the basic building blocks of intercellular cement. Decreased cohesion of the cement promotes water loss through the skin, resulting in excessive dryness and roughness. Overdried skin loses its firmness and tone. The low level of skin hydration results in the degradation of collagen and elastin structures, which leads to sagging of the skin and the formation of wrinkles.

The appearance of wrinkles on our face is a natural part of the aging process. As we age, our skin loses elasticity, which results in the appearance of large and small lines and folds on the skin's surface, most often occurring in the areas where our facial muscles work the most to give us the ability to express ourselves. Of course, the aging process itself does not only affect our complexion, but the whole body in general. The better the lifestyle we lead, the less noticeable the changes become, but they still occur.

Castor oil is nothing but a plant product obtained from the seeds of the perennial castor bean by cold pressing the oil and boiling it with water.

The right ingredients in your diet 

Vitamin C 

At the beginning I included vitamin C. Its deficiency quickly leaves traces, among others on the skin. It works perfectly on the condition of the skin when used internally and externally. It has antioxidant properties that protect the skin against free radicals. In addition, it stimulates the production of collagen, which is responsible for cohesion and firmness. Vitamin C is present in many fruits and vegetables including citrus fruits, red peppers, tomatoes, Brussels sprouts, etc. It is important to note that vitamin C is lost at high temperatures, so eat fruits and vegetables raw if you care about the supply of this vitamin. Flavonoids present in green tea, for example, increase vitamin C. The human body does not produce or store vitamin C. Any excess is eliminated. That is why it is so important to provide it with food on a daily basis /500 mg to 1000 mg should be a sufficient dose for a healthy person, during illnesses this dose is increased significantly/.

Vitamin A 

Vitamin A and more specifically beta carotene which is a provitamin of vitamin A ensures proper maintenance, repair and restoration of skin cells and tissues. With vitamin A deficiency, the skin becomes dry and flaky as it is unable to repair itself. Symptoms of its deficiency include wrinkled, rapidly aging and dry skin, dandruff, allergies, eye inflammation, loss of smell, dryness of the mucous membranes of the mouth, respiratory system, reproductive system.  

Vitamin E 

Vitamin E provides excellent antioxidant protection against UV radiation in particular. According to experts, about 400 mg of this vitamin reduces photo damage, wrinkles and improves the structure and hydration of the skin. It also delays the body's aging processes. Not without reason, it is called the vitamin of youth. Applied topically, it improves skin tone, eliminates spots and discolorations and guards the proper hydration. 

Lycopene 

Lycopene is a very strong antioxidant. It perfectly protects against harmful UV radiation. A diet rich in lycopene makes the skin naturally resistant to UV radiation. I believe that all creams with UV filters are more harmful than the radiation itself, so natural ways to strengthen the skin in this regard is a priority for me. I write more about this topic in the article "UV filters and sun protection is the biggest myth of our time". Lycopene is found in tomatoes and what's interesting, it is better absorbed after thermal processing, so all purees, homemade ketchups 

Astaxanthin 

Astaxanthin is such a super antioxidant with a beautiful reddish color. It is found in marine organisms such as krill and shrimp, giving them a pinkish hue. It protects them from harmful UV radiation. It belongs to the group of carotenoids. Astaxanthin is one of the few compounds in nature that are not converted in the body to retinol, which means that its antioxidant properties are used in the body in 100%. Studies have shown that long-term intake of Astaxanthin incredibly supports skin health and elasticity and even reverses some of the effects of aging such as wrinkles, dry skin and age spots.
