Dear Nili , Im 45 .. a couple of weeks ago my complexion looked and felt younger like in my twenties.. I had some stress , I wouldn't go to clean my face at nights , I was falling asleep with my make up on so a few days earlier , my skin changed.. I use organic products and I was happy so far .. how can i go back to the skin I had?

Hi,

Thanks for your question. To help reduce the large pores and tighten the skin, use an astringent to mask which will reduce pore appearance by constricting the blood vessels and tighten the skin tool.

Any mask that contains citrus is a good choice (lemon, orange etc.). Squeeze 1/2 and add 5-6 tablespoons of flour to it. The mass has to be thick, so add more flour to the mix if needed. You should be able to use the mix to spread it on the face. Apply this on the face and let it sit for about 20 minutes. When the time is up, wash your face with warm water.

Also, try a solution of egg whites smoothed on the face and left to dry, then rinsed with warm water. This really helps to temporarily tighten the skin.

Hope this helps,
Biljana, admin.
