Brilio.net - Wrinkles on the face are a natural sign of the aging process that occurs in human skin. Even though it is often considered a skin beauty problem, the appearance of wrinkles on the face can occur due to several factors.
One of them is aging that occurs naturally. This factor usually occurs as a person ages. When the body enters the aging phase, the production of collagen and elastin in the skin begins to decrease, resulting in wrinkles appearing in certain areas, such as the forehead, sides of the eyes and smile lines.
This natural aging can occur more quickly if the face is exposed to sunlight too often. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from sunlight damages collagen and elastin fibers in the skin, causing the skin to lose its firmness and wrinkles to appear. Therefore, using proper sunscreen and avoiding excessive sun exposure is very important to prevent wrinkles.
Apart from regularly using sunscreen, you also need to do other facial treatments to treat wrinkles. One of them is topical treatment which means you don't have to spend extra money. This facial treatment was carried out by a woman named Wulan Husna.
In uploading a video on his YouTube channel @wulanhusna, he only spent IDR 1,000 in capital. The reason is that when caring for her face by applying a mask , she only uses one lime and a few spoons of granulated sugar.
Apart from the affordable price, lime and sugar have their own benefits for the face. Limes are rich in vitamin C, an antioxidant that is important for healthy skin.
Reporting from peaksoap.com, Tuesday (30/4) the vitamin C in lime also helps stimulate collagen production. So it can reduce wrinkles on the face. Apart from helping reduce wrinkles, lime also has skin lightening properties that can help reduce the appearance of blemishes and hyperpigmentation.
Sugar is a natural ingredient that has a rough texture, so it can be used as a natural scrub to remove dead skin cells and make skin smoother. By gently rubbing a mixture of sugar and lime on facial skin, it can help remove layers of dry and dull skin which can make wrinkles look more obvious.
Those are the benefits of these two ingredients which are believed to remove wrinkles. So how do you make a mask from the ingredients above? For those of you who want to try, let's look at the steps shown by Wulan Husna as quoted by briliobeauty.net from her YouTube channel, Tuesday (30/4).

Lime helps treat dry skin.Apart from the benefits above, lime can also treat dry skin, you know. Lime has acidic properties which can help balance the skin's pH. When the skin's pH is balanced, it can help maintain the skin's natural moisture and prevent dryness.
When dead skin cells build up on the surface of the skin, it can make the skin look dry and dull. The citric acid in lime can help remove dead skin cells, allowing the skin to better absorb moisture from the skin care products you use.
The citric acid in limes can also stimulate the skin's natural oil production, which helps retain moisture and keeps the skin hydrated. However, using lime in large quantities or too frequently can dry out the skin, so it is recommended to use lime carefully and in the right amount.
