How to Tighten Face Skin

                     

1. Facial MasksHerbal facial masks are far more superior to commercial products. Try these facial masks for younger and healthy looking tighter skin.

• Sandalwood. Mix sandalwood powder with rose water in a ratio of 1:1 and apply evenly throughout your face. When dry, wash your face with cold water. This will also help in removing oil, diet and girt from your skin pores.

• Egg White and Lemon. To temporarily close your skin pores and for a radiant look, apply egg white mask if you want quick results. Separate egg white from yolk and add lemon juice (a few drops). Whish gently and thoroughly until a frothy consistency is achieved. Apply the mixture with a brush and let it dry. Wash your face thoroughly with warm water.

• Honey and Milk. Mix 1 tsp., of honey with 5 tsp., of milk and few drops of vitamin E oil. Apply the mixture on your face at least twice a week. Wash your face after 10 minutes for a radiant skin.

• Banana. For wrinkle-free, shiny and spotless skin, mash a ripe banana in a bowl. Apply the meshed banana evenly all over your face, neck and upper chest. Take a shower after 20 minutes.

2. Facial Massage

Regular facial massage before bedtime helps in increasing circulation to your face. In addition, massage in circular motion and in upward strokes helps in delaying the development of wrinkles and fine lines on the face. Make sure to use a quality moisturizer and don’t forget to massage your neck too (most women tend neglect their neck skin that is highly vulnerable to develop wrinkles and lines due to stress and pressure of head).
3. Regular Exercise

A lot of women develop loosening of skin after rapid weight loss (for example after pregnancy or vigorous dieting/ exercises). In all such cases, moderate physical activity helps in improving skin tightening by promoting muscle build-up and development of connective tissue matrix.
In this regard, inversion exercises (or headstands) are also very effective at removing the influence of gravity and reversing the sagging of skin. In addition, the blood flow to the face also increases that helps in promoting rejuvenation of skin cells.
4. Proper Diet

Consume high quality diet (that contains essential amino-acids, proteins and omega- fatty acids) for the rejuvenation or remodeling of skin. Increase your intake of fresh fruits and vegetables to supply antioxidants, vitamins and minerals for healthy looking, younger and bright skin.
Increasing your intake of water up to 8 glass per day (or at least 2 liters) help in removal of toxins, chemicals and waste products that may affect the freshness and remodeling of skin. In addition, water helps in retaining the skin moisture and elasticity that delays the sagging of skin.
5. Saltwater Bath

On alternate days, add 2 teaspoon of salt (ideally sea salt) in your bathing water. This helps in skin tightening by removing impurities and toxins from your skin that may interfere with the remodeling of collagen.
6. Protecting from the Sun

Limit excessive sun- exposure to prevent damage to superficial skin layers by UV radiations. In addition, intense sun also robs the skin of natural oils and moisture that in turn promote collagen destruction. Always use a sun-screen cover when you are out in sun and remove all the make-up before bedtime.
7. No Smoking

Smoking is one of the irritants that affects the growth and development of skin cells and also interfere with the production of collagen. Quitting smoking as early as possible not only improves your general physical health, but also protects you from a variety of metabolic, medical and neoplastic disorders. In addition, you can also regain your youthful skin without any cosmetic procedure.
