Lovers of homemade cottage cheese probably have a lot of whey. If the production of fermented dairy products is not your strength, today you can buy this very fashionable, healthy product ready-made or even quick-frozen from good kefir. Then start a fierce cosmetic fantasy and start rejuvenating based on the following recipes.
The serum itself is a true cosmetic storehouse of all kinds of nutrients that tone, nourish and heal all skin types. In addition to lactic acid, there are a lot of trace elements, vitamins A and C, and the famous group of B vitamins. Serum also contains choline, which regulates sebaceous gland function and is responsible for young and young flowering types of niacin.
Most often, the whey remains after the homemade cottage cheese is made. If you’re not a fan of such complex culinary delights, try this amazing elixir of good fresh kefir. To do this, put a packet of kefir in the freezer compartment. Wait for the kefir to harden completely, place on a multi-layer gauze-lined sieve and allow the whey to drain.
Be sure to smell the finished product and taste it gently. The serum should be refreshing and pleasantly sour. You shouldn’t let out the damn and pinch your tongue.
If the serum is successful, it will advance towards great cosmetic results, armed with imagination and UV filters, as no one has given up protection against the sun, not even acid treatment.
Serum plus yellow - and wrinkles will definitely be good
- 1 egg yolk (if you don't like yolk, replace it with aloe vera gel, without alcohol),
- 2-3 teaspoons of fresh whey
- 1⁄2 teaspoon rosehip oil (natural sunflower, soybean, evening primrose oil)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon argan oil (or any other oil, including good butter).
Rub the yolk and oils vigorously and whisk in a little whey.
Apply to damp skin (face, neck, décolleté, hands . . . ) for 20-30 minutes. Remove the residue with cotton swabs dipped in serum, wait another 5-10 minutes, then wash with cold water.
Rejuvenation treatment: after 2-3 days within a month. UV protection is essential.
Pea Milk Peeling Roll
Dilute the pea flour with whey until it becomes a mortar.
The pea flour can be replaced or mixed with chickpeas and / or oatmeal. If your skin needs more cleansing, add a little rye flour.
Apply to damp skin in several steps, allowing each layer to dry slightly.
Lightly moisten your fingertips with the serum and roll the peel along the massage lines.
Do this 1-2 times every 10-14 days, depending on the needs of your skin, and don’t forget about UV protection again.
Urgent rejuvenation for special occasions
Mix a tablespoon of beaten egg whites with a teaspoon of whey and thicken the mask with a mixture of wheat flour and oatmeal to a not very thick paste.
Apply in a thin layer on the skin (face, neck, arms, shoulders, décolletage . . . ), allow to dry, but do not harden with crust, then rinse with cold water.
Hydrate your skin with a light gel or any other product. Do not use products that are too oily or heavy so as not to lose all of their tightening effect.
The mask is considered very intense and is suitable as a one-time measure when the skin needs to be rejuvenated and tightened quickly. We recommend that you do it every 10 to 14 days.
