Brilio.net - Outside activities expose your skin to too much sunlight. This not only causes you to feel tired, but also has a number of impacts on your skin, if you don't use protection. One of them is the appearance of signs of premature aging, namely wrinkles and black spots on the surface of the face.
The above conditions can occur because the production of collagen and elastin in the body tends to decrease and become damaged, caused by excessive exposure to UV rays. You need to know, collagen and elastin are proteins that help maintain skin firmness, moisture and elasticity. Well, a decrease in the production of these two proteins causes the skin to lose its elasticity, and then causes wrinkles on the face.
Signs of premature aging can appear at any time, so it's no wonder that many people are now using various facial treatments to prevent it, one of which is currently trending is collagen drinks. The benefits of this drink are that it rejuvenates the skin, increases firmness, and reduces wrinkles and fine lines. Even if consumed all the time, it can repair damaged skin structure.
To get this collagen drink, you don't need to consume sachet products. You can make your own collagen drink at home using aloe vera, lime and granulated sugar.
Aloe vera is no stranger to the world of beauty. The reason is, aloe vera contains active compounds that can stimulate collagen production in the skin. The nutritional content and natural moisturizing properties help maintain skin moisture. With hydrated skin, wrinkles and fine lines can appear smoother. Meanwhile, the anti-inflammatory properties of aloe vera help reduce inflammation of the skin, help repair damage and reduce signs of premature aging.
Limes are high in vitamin C, which is a powerful antioxidant that helps in collagen formation. Vitamin C also helps fight free radical damage and maintain skin brightness. The citric acid content in lime has natural exfoliating properties that help remove dead skin cells, refresh the skin, and stimulate the regeneration of new skin cells.
Meanwhile, sugar is used as a natural scrub to exfoliate the skin. In a mask or scrub mixture, sugar helps remove dead skin cells, so the skin becomes smoother and cleaner. Then, when used as a scrub, sugar helps increase blood circulation to the surface of the skin, which can help improve the texture and appearance of the skin.
Apart from that, there are two additional ingredients, namely salt and ice cubes. The benefits of the salt in this drink are useful for shrinking facial pores, because of its astringent properties. When used in drinks, salt helps improve skin firming effects and reduces the appearance of enlarged pores. Meanwhile, the water content in salt helps draw water to the surface of the skin and provides a hydrating effect that can make your skin moist.
Meanwhile, ice cubes help cool the collagen drink, which can increase absorption into the body. Meanwhile, ice cubes provide a refreshing sensation when consumed, which can help soothe the skin and relieve inflammation. It's not surprising that ice can help reduce redness and irritation on the skin, as well as providing a refreshing refreshing sensation.
So, those are the benefits you can get from the ingredients. Interested in using the three ingredients above to increase collagen production from within?
