Brilio.net - Everyone certainly wants to have skin that still looks youthful even though age continues to increase. However, skin aging is a natural process that cannot be avoided. Usually, signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles begin to appear from the age of 25. However, premature aging can be prevented with proper skin care. One method that is widely used is the use of anti-aging cream.
Anti-aging creams usually contain active ingredients such as retinol, peptides, hyaluronic acid, and antioxidants from vitamins A and E that function to reduce signs of aging. However, many of these products are quite expensive. Alternatively, anti-aging creams can be made yourself using natural ingredients that have similar benefits, such as aloe vera, orange, and lemon.
Aloe vera is known to be rich in vitamins A, C, and E which play a role in accelerating skin cell regeneration, reducing fine lines, and providing natural moisture to the skin. In addition, oranges and lemons contain vitamin C which helps increase collagen production, makes the skin look brighter, and reduces hyperpigmentation. The citric acid contained in these two fruits also functions to remove dead skin cells so that the skin looks fresher. Not only that, the antioxidant content in oranges and lemons also helps maintain the elasticity and firmness of the skin to keep it healthy and look young.
However, before using orange or lemon on your facial skin, it is very important to do an allergy test first. The high acid content in both fruits can cause irritation for some people, especially those with sensitive skin. Therefore, apply a small amount to your hand first to ensure there is no negative reaction before using it as a facial treatment.

In addition, excessive sun exposure, unhealthy diet, lack of sleep, and prolonged stress can also accelerate the skin aging process.
To keep your skin healthy and looking youthful, it is important to combine proper skincare with a healthy lifestyle. Using sunscreen every day, eating antioxidant-rich foods, and keeping your skin hydrated by drinking enough water are some steps that can help slow down premature aging naturally. With consistent care and the right natural ingredients, your skin can stay healthy, firm, and radiant even as you age.
