What are some natural beauty tips?

At present, natural beauty techniques that have been widely verified by skin care enthusiasts and dermatologists to be effective are centered around low-irritation diet adjustments and mild plant ingredients for external use. Those "original methods" spread online about directly applying fresh ingredients to the face are extremely controversial and are not recommended to be tried blindly.

When I first became obsessed with natural skin care two years ago, I ran into a lot of pitfalls, and some of my friends also suffered from it. In the summer, I thought I was tanned and I cut thick slices of lemon and applied it to my face. It turned red and stinging on the spot. I went to the hospital to find out that it was contact dermatitis caused by the stimulation of high concentrations of organic acids. There were also people who used raw potato slices to apply on their eyes to remove bruises. , but before the bruises subsided, a row of fat particles appeared around the eyes. Later, after asking a dermatologist friend, I found out that the organic acids, photosensitive substances and residual pesticide impurities in fresh fruits and vegetables have not been treated, and the irritation of direct application to the face is completely uncontrollable, and it is not a scientific natural beauty method at all.

Of course, that doesn’t mean you can’t touch natural ingredients at all. Choose natural ingredients that have been extracted in a standardized manner and have removed allergenic impurities. If used correctly, they will be gentler than many chemically synthesized skin care products. I have combination skin with dry and sensitive skin. I have been using cold-pressed sweet almond oil as a cleansing oil for almost two years. Every time I remove my eyes, lips and face, my face does not feel tight. It is much more comfortable than the many makeup removers I bought before that contain irritating surfactants. When the seasons change and my face becomes red and itchy, I will use regular brands. Soak chamomile hydrosol in a paper mask and apply it for 10 minutes. The redness will basically disappear. I checked relevant research before and found that the azulene ingredients in chamomile do have anti-inflammatory and soothing effects. As long as it is a regular product that is purified in place, it can be used by sensitive skin.

When it comes to the most lasting natural beauty tips, it actually comes down to your daily routine and diet. Many people may think it is a cliché to say it, but I have personally tested it and it really works. In the past, I often stayed up until two or three o'clock before going to bed. My chin kept closing repeatedly, and my skin was as dark as a layer of dust. Later, I forced myself to turn off my phone before 11 o'clock and lie down on my back. I drank a cup of warm light honey water every morning, and tried to drink 1.5L of warm water during the day. After persisting for half a year, my mouth closed almost never happened again, and even my pores became much smaller, and my overall complexion brightened several degrees. However, this does vary from person to person. I also have friends who are naturally skinny. Their skin remains smooth even though they stay up late eating hot pot every day. I can only say that for most people with ordinary skin types, this kind of adjustment from the inside out is the most cost-effective natural beauty method.

As for many other natural tips posted on the Internet, they are actually quite controversial. For example, mixing brown sugar with honey for exfoliation. Some people say that the skin feels particularly smooth after using it. Many dermatologists also remind that the particles of brown sugar are irregular, and it is easy to scratch when rubbed hard. Small cuts in the missing cuticles, long-term use will make the skin sensitive and prone to redness. I have thin skin and dare not try it. Friends with oily skin around me use it once every half month and say that it can indeed remove dead skin from the corners of the mouth. There is no absolute right or wrong way to do this. It depends on your skin type and tolerance.

To put it bluntly, the core logic of natural beauty is "don't bother". Don't always think about finding some miraculous folk remedies. Try slowly and adjust slowly. Finding a method that suits you is better than anything else.
