Face Masks to Try for Skin Care

Ultimate Cleansing Mask
In a blender or food processor, grind 1 cup of oatmeal to a powder. Add 3 drops of almond oil, 1/2 cup of milk, and 1 egg white. Continue to blend together, and apply. Rinse off after 20 minutes.

Peach and Brandy
Mash up a peach (use ripe, canned, or frozen) and mix in a tablespoon of brandy. Leave it on for 20 minutes, and rinse off.

Tomato Mask
For oily skin,mash up a ripe tomato and leave it on for 15 to 20 minutes. Rinse with warm (not hot) water.

Banana Mask
Mash up a very ripe banana. Add just enough honey to make a soft pulp.Apply over face and hair.This is such a great firming mask that aging movie stars have been known to put it in the cups of their bras to make their breasts “perky.”
Just make sure that you don’t add too much honey, and that you use a sturdy bra. I recently did a TV show where I attempted to use a lacy bra. Needless to say, it was a little messy!

Honey Mask
Apply pure honey (straight from the bottle) to your face and neck. Allow it to set until dry (about 15 minutes). Rinse with very warm water.

Milk of Magnesia
Oil-Absorbing Mask

Apply it straight from the bottle. Let it dry for about five to ten minutes. Rinse off with warm water.
Gently pat face dry with fluffy towel.

Pepto-Bismol

This is a face mask particularly suited for those with sensitive skin. In the same way that this product coats the stomach, it gently caresses the face. Apply it straight from the bottle with a cotton swab.
Allow it to dry and rinse with cool water. It’s as refreshing as a cool summer breeze.

Beauty Solutions for Aged People For Skin Care

The skin becomes more sensitive in old age; hence it demands a lot of care and attention. Menopause normally happens gradually between 45 and 55 years of age. After menopause the amount of estrogen produced by a woman slows down dramatically. As a result changes occur in the skin, which is highly sensitive to estrogen. Older people have to deal with the normal aging process of the skin. In aged women and men, the skin dries and thins because the sebaceous glands slow down and even gathers pace. The elastin fibers lose their structure, the dermis becomes less resilient, and the skin becomes wrinkled and sags. It is never too late to take care of the skin, no matter of what age group you belong to.

Here are some beauty solutions for improving your age beauty with proper skin care.

As you grow older, the skin becomes dry. You must exfoliate the skin. This will remove dead skin cells. The cell division will increase and will perform more youthfully. If you use almond scrub and tap the skin then also the cell division will increase.

Apply face pack once a week. This will prove to be very beneficial. Take a teaspoon of whipped cream, a few drops of lavender oil and a pinch of alum. Mix them together and apply this mixture. Leave it for about 20 minutes and then rinse with lukewarm water.

If you want to enhance your age beauty then mix a few drops of patchouli oil with almond oil and apply it day and night and then use a moisturizer. Regularly clean your face with some mild soap twice or thrice a day. You should take care of your skin by keeping it always clean. You should wash your feet, armpits etc with water and soap taking proper care. Bathing regularly is necessary for healthy skin.

Keep your skin hydrated by drinking lot of water and fruit juice. When your skin gets dehydrated it becomes dry and cracks. In order to maintain its elasticity you should drink more than 8 glasses of water per day.

Aged people get more prone to feet problems. They get problems like corns, warts, fungal infection, blisters etc. You should consult doctor for such things. However what you can do at home is cleaning your feet with warm water. Remember to wash your nails properly!

In Rainy season you need to take more care of your skin because you get muddy water on your feet which contain germs. Your skin thus gets infected. You should wash it with some antiseptic in water.

If you want to shine with your age beauty then prevent your skin from sun burning. For this avoid getting out in heavy sunlight. If you get exposed to sun when the sun is on the top your skin is likely to burn or get dark. To protect your skin from sunburn, you should apply some lotion and were hat, use umbrella etc.

Skin is very sensitive organ. Don’t itch it if you feel like itching. Itching spoils the beauty of your skin. Massage your skin with Vitamin E oil. Vitamin E is vital for skin.
