Enjoy your reading and in await of your comments! See you soon!

1. Strawberries not only at the table but also on the face!

Strawberries contain tannins, mucilage, vitamins and mineral salts. Mucilages are very important as they go to moisturize the skin without loading it or making it shiny. These together with the other components make the strawberry has nutritive, astringent, diuretic and anti-free radical properties!

Use:

3-4 strawberries blended or pounded preferably with leaves, add to this

2 teaspoons of acacia honey as it is free of allergies and easy to use,

1 egg white part whipped and then

2 tablespoons of sweet almond oil if you have dry skin or jojoba oil (jojoba wax) if you have mixed / oily skin.

Apply it on the face or on the affected part for 20-30 min. and then rinse with warm water. To be repeated twice a week.

The strawberry is a fruit not recommended for diabetics, for those suffering from eczema, hives and in the case of allergy to the umpteenth fruit!

2. The Carrots have no season!

The carrot is the vegetable most used by man! Contains vitamin C, B1, B2 and above all carotene and provitamin A, potassium and many trace elements; but a very important substance is the daucarina as it is vasodilator that penetrates the dermis and so nourishes the epidermis!

Below I show you how to prepare simple, easy, cheap and above all effective masks!

FRESH CARROT: Grate 2 carrots washed with skin if not treated so organic growing and make cataplasms so apply this mass on the face and than rinse only when it is dried. To be repeated twice a week. As you wish, you can add 1 cucumber to make it more refreshing.

COOKED CARROT better if steamed: Crush 1 steamed carrot with a fork, add 1 teaspoon of acacia honey, mix water and starch in equal quantities to make a paste. Apply it for 20-30 minutes and then rinse with warm water.

3. Toned anti-stain solution with chamomile and lemon

1 glass of distilled water (the one we use for the iron)

               ½ lemon as it is an excellent lightening

                2 tablespoons of camomile tea

Put it all in a dark glass bottle and apply it to the face with a cotton swab after cleansing the face before going to bed. As a bottle, I advise you to recycle a bottle of finished olive oil free from traces of oil (hot water and bicarbonate is added, shake well and then rinse).
