How a gelatin mask saved my skin

Probably, every girl in the heating season faced the same problem as me - my normal skin began to peel off, even small pimples and dryness appeared. I was told that this does not come from improperly selected cosmetics, but from too dry air. Unfortunately, the moisturizing cream, like water treatments, had a temporary effect, but my mother advised me to use a gelatin mask. At first I rejected, believing that it did not suit my young skin, but still decided to try it - it was not. And now I am sharing with you my impressions.

Helped not only me, but also my friend

The cooking recipe itself is not complicated. I had all the products in stock and I applied the mask immediately after removing my makeup.

A gelatin mask is made from several components:

A full spoonful of gelatin;

• 3 tablespoons of honey (be careful if you are allergic to it);
• Half a glass of warm water;
• The same amount of glycerin;
• A little citric or salicylic acid - it kills germs.

I mixed everything to get a homogeneous jelly. Then she folded it into a cream jar and applied it to her face, removing the rest with a napkin. I held it for about 15 minutes, then went to bed. In the morning I woke up - the skin is smooth, I didn't even need a moisturizer, and my mother liked it - she made her wrinkles less noticeable and tightened her skin a little. And, interestingly, this mask can be stored in the refrigerator as a cream and taken as much as needed for the face. I have used it several times and am happy with the result.

Of course, she could not resist and told her friends about this mask, and one of them noted that she was not only removes acne, but also makes age spots less noticeable, so that the girlfriend does not need it and disguise. And she got rid of acne in just a few applications.

A few practical tips

A woman dermatologist told me that the action of a gelatin mask is based on nutrition, moisturizing, tightening and toning, but honey is not suitable for everyone, since it is considered an allergen.

If there is a flower or seasonal allergy, it is best not to use this ingredient. To enhance the antibacterial and tonic effect, you can add a little aloe juice (one spoon will be enough), a little lemon juice. I tried both the first and the second option, I liked it. Especially with aloe - now, in the era of a pandemic, this is especially important, so take care.
