10 types of coconut masks easy to make at home
According to Dr. Priyanka Kuri, a dermatologist in Mumbai, India: "Coconut oil contains essential fatty acids, vitamin E and antioxidants. When used in the form of a mask, it not only moisturizes deep but also helps to soothe inflammation, reduce redness and improve skin tones."
From a cheap and easy -to -find ingredient, you can completely process it into 10 different types of skincare masks:
Coconut oil and honey: Deep moisturizing and lightening the skin thanks to the antibacterial properties of honey.
Coconut oil and yogurt: soothe and gently remove dead cells thanks to lactic acid.
Coconut oil and turmeric powder: reduce inflammation and lighten the skin, but be careful because turmeric can cause jaundice.
Coconut oil and butter: Provide essential fatty acids, great water supply for dry skin.
Coconut oil and oats: soothe sensitive skin and exfoliate gently.
Coconut oil and lemon juice: lighten the skin, but need to use sunscreen later because lemon increases light sensitivity.
Coconut oil and aloe vera: Moisturizing, soothing irritation, very suitable for sunburned skin.
Coconut oil and bananas: Enhance moisture and vitamins, help skin smoothly smooth.
Coconut oil and green tea: Strong antioxidant, protective skin before pollution and environmental agents.
Coconut oil and honey and lemon juice: combine three elements of lightening, antibacterial and moisturizing effectively.
Important notes when using coconut masks for skin care
Dr. Priyanka Kuri, a dermatologist in Mumbai noted: "Coconut oil can clog pores, especially for people with oily or acne -prone skin. It is necessary to try reaction on small skin before using the face."
In addition, users should only apply coconut mask 2–3 times per week, each time not more than 20 minutes to avoid clogged skin, prone to acne.
Should choose pure coconut oil, no fragrance, and wash your face thoroughly with warm water after applying to completely remove excess oil.
With formulas combined with lemon or turmeric, it is necessary to use sunscreen thoroughly because the skin will be more sensitive to UV rays.
Beauty from nature is only really effective when understanding the skin and using scientifically and carefully.
