Effective home remedies for forehead wrinkles

Women go through great lengths to stay youthful and beautiful. Some share their secrets. From putting your face in ice water for 10 seconds (no doubt that must be quite an experience) to others swearing on stewed prunes 2 to 3 times a week(keeping you regular)or foods high in antioxidants(rids the body of toxins). There are other alternatives too.


If you are looking for a quick fix for forehead wrinkles. There may be many ways to do that. But not all are wise and good for you. Thus I am sharing safe home remedies that you can follow at home. It took some research but I found a few noteworthy guidelines. But first and foremost I want to tell you to focus on these points. 

Remember the most important guidelines

Stay hydrated. 
I have said it so many times that staying hydrated is very important. That way your skin has essential moisture.
Balanced diet
Getting the right nutrients is essential for your body. So consider the wise choices when planning meals. Lots of fruits and vegetables should be part of your diet.
Smoking
Smoking isn't good for your skin. Or your health. 
Sunshine. 
As much as we all need vitamin D. Do remember that the sun's Ultraviolet rays are harmful for your skin. It will cause premature ageing. And in the process wrinkles too.
Stress
It is vital to learn to control stress. Do remember that each time you frown you deepening the creases and as your body doesn't create collagen as it used to. It takes longer to recover and repair. One person said open your eyes and stop frowning. Not sure about that. But if it works for you. Then do that. 

Do consider this when thinking of following a good skin routine. Especially if you are starting to see wrinkles. But also do be mindful. Prevention is better than cure. Sp best to avoid getting wrinkles at all. But if you landed on this site because you have wrinkles. Then know there is safe natural ways to get rid of forehead wrinkles

Retinol.

One of the biggest products that combats wrinkles. As it removes the top layer of skin and leaves a fresher younger revealing skin. Within a short time. You should notice an improvement. So if you are considering a facial cream. Ask yourself this. Does it contain retinol?

Other ways that you can follow. 

Mix honey yogurt lemon juice and the contents of a vitamin E capsule. Apply on freshly cleansed face. Leave it on for ten minutes. Rinse off with lukewarm water. Apply your facial cream.

Or you can apply a few drops coconut oil/sweet almond oil on the wrinkled areas every night before bed.

Then there is this highly regarded home remedy.

Gram flour(chickpea flour) 1 and half teaspoon
Turmeric powder. It needs to be less than half a teaspoon
Raw milk. Just enough to make a nice paste. 

Mix the ingredients. Apply on freshly cleansed face. Leave it on for 30 minutes. Rinse your face with lukewarm water.

If you don't have gram flour (chickpea flour) You can make your own following these steps.

Making chickpea flour
  
If you use a high power blender. You will be able to make the flour. Blend the chickpeas in the blender. For at least 2 minutes.
Now use a sieve to remove any lumps as you want the consistency of flour. 
Chickpea flour can be stored in an airtight container for up to 8 weeks. But do remember to put it in the fridge.

Now do remember one thing please. If you do use the lemon home remedy mentioned earlier. Your skin will be more sensitive in sunlight so best to avoid the sunlight. Or better yet do this at night.

With all that said I hope you will have the most amazing results. Follow this and you will be surprised at how easy it is to remove wrinkles. 

And thanks for reading this article. It is our followers that makes it worthwhile to share useful and trustworthy home remedies. Please share so others can have the best results too.

So thanks to the kindness of the lady I am able to share this home made cream with everyone. Why am I so excited to share this wonderful cream with everybody? Consider this. A lady 70 years old.

The ingredients. 
350 ml Johnson baby aqueous cream

1 spoonful glycerin

Some add a spoonful of sweet almond oil and a spoonful of coconut oil too.

Method.
Mix everything in a jar with a lid. 
Apply on freshly cleansed face.

This DIY anti-aging collagen face mask fights aging and wrinkles. Also good for blackheads.

Today I want to talk to the ladies about a facial mask that is anti-aging. But also highly effective against the fight against wrinkles. It fills wrinkles. Tried tested and approved. Even for those struggling with blackheads. You will be happy that you tried this face mask. 


Now if you combine that with a home made face and body cream. You will wonder why you ever considered buying store bought face cream. And as the cream can be used for a body lotion you will be happy and amazed. But that article isn't what we will check out now.

Lets talk about collagen for a moment. Even famous brands tells you collagen is vital for your skin. So don't be surprised that this is a collagen facial mask. Combine that with a few other things and you will wonder how you ever got along without it. Gelatin is a source that is filled with collagen. So it will be one of the ingredients. 


Arthritis
Incidentally. Many people who deal with joint pains and arthritis will tell you they add a spoonful of gelatin to their morning coffee. Not sure how it tastes but they say it gives effective relief. But too much can be hazardous for health. So in limited quantities it is excellent for arthritis. So consider the gelatin desserts as part of your lifestyle. There is such a wonderful variety of ways to use it. So do enjoy. Even diabetic friendly versions. And as it is rich in collagen. This way you feed your skin from within too. 

This home made face mask contains 
2 tablespoons gelatin. 
Just enough hot water to dissolve the gelatin.
1 teaspoon honey. I prefer using raw honey.
Teaspoon olive oil.
And last but not least 1 teaspoon lemon juice.

Mixing
Start by adding the gelatin in your container. 
Add the hot water. Small amount!! 
Stir to dissolve the gelatin. 
Add all other ingredients. The honey, olive oil and the lemon juice. 
Now mix everything together. 

Please note
Please do not apply if it the mixture is hot. The idea is the collagen mixture should be melted for application. Luke warm will be fine and more important. SAFE. 
As you can do this every day or two three times a week. 
Choice is yours. 

Method
Place bottle in hot water if the gelatin mixture needs to melt again. Apply on freshly cleansed face. Leave to dry completely. Peel off the face mask once it is dry. Or rinse it off. The choice is yours. But for blackheads the best option is peeling it off. Apply your favorite moisturizer. 

Or you can consider this wonderful moisturizer that I mentioned earlier. The moisturizer will be mentioned in the next article. Everyone who use it. Swears by the effectiveness of it. Admitting that is the best secret they ever had. But want to share it so everyone can benefit from this. So please keep checking as it will be posted too. But that is the next article. 

I hope you found this article helpful. Please share so others can benefit from it too. If you have any questions, comments or suggestions. Feel free to comment below or contact us.

Here is why you should consider applying oil in belly button area.

A friend sent me some advice and I thought it is rather strange yet interesting. So after some more research I am sharing it with you. But why not consider it for the benefits it has. 

Benefits to applying oil in belly button area
Benefits such as  dry eyes, eyesight problems, pancreas not working correctly, dry cracked heels and/or lips, glowing skin, dry skin, shiny and healthy hair, pain associated with knee pain as well as joint pains, shivering, and lethargy to name a few.

Why is this effective against every day problems? What makes it so effective? You may wonder. 


It is actually very interesting once you understand it. You know why it is such an effective remedy against some ailments. Your belly button can sense which veins in your body is dry and needs oil and send it to the correct area. All veins in the body is said to be connected to the belly button. An unborn baby gets nourishment directly from the belly button. Because of this all veins are connected to the belly button. Ever heard of the Pechoti? Where is it located? Just behind your belly button. It is connected to over 72 000 veins. By applying oil you nourish much needed parts of your body. Now if you consider that the belly button was used to nourish an unborn baby. Would applying oil on the belly button area not be an effective home remedy that can relieve ailments as mentioned earlier?

Let us start with the benefits when applying oil in belly.

Coconut oil
Great moisturiser for your skin.
It helps to treat stomach pains and aches.
If you deal with menstrual pains consider rubbing coconut oil on your navel area. It helps to ease the pain associated with menstrual cycle. 
It helps to improve fertility.
Another benefit of using coconut oil is improved eyesight. As it treats poor eye sight and helps to cure dryness of eyes.
Glowing skin
Softer skin
Nail fungus

Mustard oil
If you have cracked lips all you have to do is apply mustard oil in your belly button. Try it and see for yourself. Also effective for joint pains. Shivering and dry skin.

Neem oil
By applying a few drops neem oil you will help to relieve acne.

Almond oil
If you apply a few drops almond oil you will find that you will have glowing skin.

Ghee oil
If you desire healthy and softer skin, all you have to do is apply a few drops ghee oil in your belly button area. Also effective for poor eye sight, nail fungus, shiny hair and glowing skin.

Castor oil
Castor oil helps to relieve pains and aches in knees. If you apply it before bedtime it will help you to get proper rest.

Method
So what do you have to do? You may wonder. Before bedtime apply three drops oil in the navel area. More correctly the belly button and spread it around one and half inches. Massage gently. Do this every night and you will be amazed with the difference. And improved benefits.

So I hope this will help to relieve and improve your life. Whether you consider this for beauty of health. If you know if any other benefits please feel free to comment below or contact us.

Homemade all-in-one face mask for younger clear radiant skin for all skin types

I was on the verge of a skin break out which doesn't happen much to me despite having oily skin. So I knew I had to do something drastic. Result is a great facial mask that I just knew I had to share. I will however confess I got carried away when combining ingredients. But at the same time I knew what would be good for skin and wanted to make sure I handle a few things at the same time. Despite having oily skin I knew I had to give my skin some much needed pampering as well. Having oily skin doesn't mean you don't need moisturise. It just means your moisturiser should not be for other skin types and not have any unneeded oils. As your skin will be aggravated and it will be visible.


If you suffer from dull tired looking skin, need to focus on wrinkles, dark circles or even dark marks, irritated tired looking skin then you can try this. As this a home made face mask you will be amazed at the results. I have to admit I just combined things that I knew will be good for my skin. Each of these ingredients does something beneficial for skin. So it wasn't just a random pick. If you have made facial masks before you will know how beneficial each of these ingredients are.

What items did I use, you may wonder.
Oats
Lemon juice or juice of one lemon
Extra virgin olive oil, 
Banana, 
Cucumber
Tomato
Mint leaves that was freshly picked I used about 6. 
Now don't forget to add yogurt. 
If I had raw honey I would've added it. As it is good for many skin conditions.
While you are relaxing why not place two cucumber slices over your eyes as well

The cucumber came straight from the fridge so it was a cold face mask. Combine the ingredients and liquidise it in a liquidiser and make sure to make a fine smooth paste with it. Or a food processor if you don't have a liquidiser. Apply on your face and neck. I always apply the mask on my hands too. We use our hands so much but it shows age just as easily. Yet most forget that hands need pampering as well.  When applying you will feel it starts working on your skin within minutes. Personally I leave it on to dry completely as it has a skin tightening effect as well. I can say about 20 minutes then rinse off with lukewarm water (never use hot water on your face). Apply your favourite moisturiser or why not consider ending your facial treatment with a well nourishing oil such as castor olive or coconut oil for extra benefits. Leave it on overnight

As seen it was a wild made facial mask. But with these results. I keep doing this every day. I don't know if it is about the combined effect or if it is the fact that after I put on castor oil but it is stunning. But you can apply olive oil or coconut oil after face mask and leave it on overnight. It has so many nutritional benefits. 

I always make facial masks, not only for me but for my mother as well. She deserves the pampering too.  Some time other ladies use this facial mask as well. This is the changes I have noticed as following between all of us. Smooth clear skin that is well hydrated and slowly removes wrinkles. Skin looks radiant, fresh, nourished and well hydrated. Dark circles are lightened, it may even be gone. And that skin break out. That disappeared before it became a problem. Dark marks are lightened. Freckles are lightened as well, firmer younger looking skin that shows you gave your skin some much needed time. I am surprised at all the results I have seen. I call this the all-in-one face mask. I may improve it over time. But I am truly satisfied with it. I do hope you will approve it as well.

Effective ways to fight the aging process

If you are one of the millions of women who wonder how to stop ageing or reverse ageing. Here is a few natural tips to consider. Not only is it down to the basics but it works in fighting the aging process.


Sesame oil
It is good to apply and massage sesame oil each morning all over your body. It hydrates your skin while gets your blood circulation. Leaving a healthy and visible glow. Then take a shower to wash the dead skin away

Others would prefer olive oil for the same reasons. But leaving it on for a few hours makes it soft well nourished and fights the aging process.

Fish oil
It is good to consider fish oil as it is high in omega 3 and also considered a good source of anti inflammatories. Not only does it improve your immune system but helps your hair grow. Your skin looks more soft and supple. Consider 500mg daily and see the difference yourself. 

Sugar
Sugar is considered a culprit in premature aging. It speeds up the aging process as it causes sagging and wrinkles. Instead consider it as a scrub. Just add it to your cleanser while in the shower. Add a handful of sugar. Your skin will feel smoother.

Remember your eye area.
Face creams can be very harsh for your skin area. But using a cream or gel that is made for that sensitive eye area is considered best. it helps erase fine lines around the eye area without being harsh on the skin.

Don't forget your hands
It isn't only your face that can give your age away. Most will spend lots of time and money on their face and neck. Yet hands are forgotten. But considering how much we use our hands. Or even how easy it is to notice your hands. So with that in mind ask yourself this. When using a face mask why not apply some on your hands too? Or even when you exfoliate it is good to remember that you can treat your hands to some of that pampering too.

Consider a vitamin C cream
Not only will it help repair your skin but as it has a natural sunscreen protection. When added with your SPF cream it gives even more protection from the sun. The sun's harmful uv rays is also a reason people can age prematurely.

Water
I know I have repeatedly said this. But water is one of the most effective ways to hydrate your skin from within. It also helps your body gets rid of toxins. 

Eating habits
Remember this one simple rule when considering your eating habits. You become what you eat. It basically means this. What you digest will either benefit to your health. Or will be unhealthy for you. The choice is yours. So add more fruit and vegetables and less unhealthy foods.

Exercise
If you consider exercising your benefit your beauty and health at the same time. So don't be surprised that it s also mentioned. It even helps you to improve your immunity. 

Think happy thoughts
Be like Wendy and Peter Pan. Think happy thoughts. It makes a difference on your outlook on life. It does make a difference on your health and aging too. Your thoughts are so powerful. Make a difference by changing your thoughts to healthy and beneficial ones.

Extra tips to remember
Use your prefered facial cleanser. Wash your face gently dry your skin and apply your moisturiser that you prefer before sleeping. Night time is the time your skin repairs itself. Be realistic. You dont need a long beauty routine to see the difference. No need for a ten step program. Simplicity can sometimes be the best.

But as for me. 
I also say embrace who you are. Being overly critical of who you are or how you look has no benefits. Think about it. If you are not comfortable in your own skin. Then who will? Remember that you live in your own skin. So learn to be comfortable with who you are. If it means making changes then do it. But don't do it for others. Do it for you. You deserve it. But commit to it and change your life as you want it to be.
