Brilio.net - When you are no longer young, especially those over the age of 40 will face signs of aging. Usually fine lines , wrinkles and wrinkles begin to appear. This affects the performance of proteins in the body, such as reducing the production of collagen and elastin. Collagen and elastin are proteins that provide strength and elasticity to the skin. Well, as we get older, the performance of these two things starts to decline. This causes the skin to lose its elasticity and firmness. As a result, fine lines and wrinkles appear.
Usually, to prevent and treat signs of aging, many people start having treatment at beauty clinics. The favorite treatment is Botox. The reason is, Botox can reduce fine lines and wrinkles. In fact, this treatment can make your face slim. When Botox is injected into the jaw muscles, this method will work by reducing the size of the muscles.
Even though it is quite popular among women, this treatment is priced at a price that is quite draining on your wallet. The solution, you can care for your face by using natural ingredients around you. This time you can use food ingredients, such as olive oil, coconut oil, green tea and rice.
Olive oil contains antioxidants and fatty acids so it can moisturize and increase skin elasticity. Then, coconut oil has moisturizing and anti-inflammatory properties that smooth and maintain elasticity.
Meanwhile, green tea contains antioxidants and polyphenols which can protect the skin from free radicals. Lastly, the presence of white rice which contains vitamin B complex helps stimulate collagen production and reduces the appearance of fine lines.
The benefits of coconut oil and rice flour to reduce fine lines.Apart from the two ingredients above, this mask contains two additional ingredients, namely coconut oil and rice flour. The combination of these two ingredients is known to have natural anti-inflammatory properties that help reduce inflammation in the skin. This can help relieve redness and irritation around fine lines. On the other hand, the nutritional content in coconut oil and rice flour, such as vitamin E and fatty acids, can help repair skin damage and speed up the regeneration process of skin cells. This can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Meanwhile, rice flour itself has a fine texture and gentle exfoliating properties, helping to remove dead skin cells that can make fine lines look clearer. The natural whitening properties of rice flour can help even out skin tone and reduce hyperpigmentation.
Can coconut oil moisturize the skin?Apart from being used to remove fine lines on the face, coconut oil can maintain moisture and treat dry skin. This is because this natural ingredient contains fatty acids which can hydrate the skin, and fine lines will appear reduced.

"I use jojoba oil most nights and alternate with other essential oils (depending on what's available) because it hydrates mature skin better than a cream moisturizer. Olive oil and coconut oil have also been shown to have positive anti-aging benefits on the skin. Thank you for posting this recipe, it's something I might look into too!"
