Easy Home Remedies for Wrinkles

by Herb B. Lewis

Wrinkles are a normal part of life. The good news is wrinkles are a part of life you can do something about. Instead of buying expensive skin creams it is better to use home remedies to keep your skin in shape so you will not get wrinkles.

Fruit yogurt makes a simple wrinkle mask. Mix in 1 tablespoon of honey, and 1/2 ripe banana for an even better mask. Watermelon is a natural cleanser when crushed and smeared onto the skin; you can use it just by itself or massed up with your favorite fruit yogurt. Test anything you are going to put on your face. You want to make sure it will not cause you to break out.

You can make a cleanser for your face and neck by emptying a few Vitamin E capsules into a cup and then mixing with 2 tablespoons of yogurt, a tablespoon of honey and a tablespoon of lemon juice. Mix together, rub on your face and leave it on for 10 minutes then rinse.

Take seedless grapes, cut them in half and crush them on your face so the juice will be absorbed into your skin. Leave it on for 20 minutes, rinse.

Cook oatmeal with almond milk, add a tablespoon of honey, a couple tablespoons of yogurt and some ground almonds. Apply this in your face, let it dry and wash with lukewarm water then splash with cold water.

If you have sensitive skin, wash your face in warm salty water or fresh squeezed lemon juice with equal parts water. Strain the lemon juice and pour it into a spray bottle, spray your face. After it dries rinse your face with warm water then cold water. This should clean your sensitive skin without irritating your face.

Regular natural facials are important to prevent wrinkles and keep your skin looking good. Before you apply the facial give yourself a facial massage to increase blood circulation. Start with the neck and work your way to the forehead. Use your fingers and massage the mixture into your skin in a circular motion.

Witch hazel is useful for cleaning out the pores before doing a natural facial. It is a natural astringent made from the leaves and bark of the Witch Hazel shrub Hamamelis virginiana. The distilled witch hazel in drug stores typically contains no tannin. The drug store witch hazel is useful for the restoration of old furniture finishes. When poured onto a flat wood surface and left to sit, the witch hazel will soften old lacquer or varnish.

Herbal tea made from red clover, dandelion root, burdock, and echinacea is believed to be good for the skin. You can find these herbs in extracts at your health food store or make an infusion of the dried herbs. You can also get these herbs by the ounce at most health food stores. Red clover is easy to find fresh, it makes a good ice tea just by itself.

Here are a couple recipes to get you started with your home remedies for wrinkles. A trick I use to keep the soap from sticking to the mold is to coat the mold with olive oil before I add the mixture.

Coffee and Cream Soap - You need 2 tsp. organic coffee beans, 4 oz. soap base, 1 tsp. Heavy whipping cream and 1 tsp. Aloe vera gel.

Grind two teaspoons of organic coffee beans. Melt the soap base. Remove from heat and add the ground beans, organic whipping cream, and aloe vera gel, stir until the mixture is well blinded. Pour the mixture into a mold and let it set until hard.

Rosemary Soap - You need one pound of soap base, one cup of whole organic milk, 1/2 teaspoon Rosemary pure essential oil. Pour all of the soap mixture into your mold. After the soap hardens, push it out of the mold and go take a bath. This makes a creamy soap that has a great Rosemary smell.

Never apply any essential oil directly to the skin. Rosemary essential oil is not recommended for individuals with high blood pressure or epilepsy.
