Cucumber is a fruit similar to pumpkin, pumpkin, melon and watermelon. Green vegetables, which contain 95% water, also provide many benefits to the human body. Cucumber face masks are powerful because they refresh and tighten the skin, erase wrinkles and fine lines, even out skin tone and remove acne.
- Gel with cucumbers for tired eyes – you need one spoon of aloe vera and ¼ of a large cucumber. Blend ¼ of a large cucumber in a blender, but you can also leave some of the peel. squeeze the cucumber into a clean glass container. Double the amount of liquid is needed compared to aloe gel. Mix the mixture and put it in a sterile container that closes well. Apply the mixture after cleansing the face. Use a cotton swab and be careful not to get it in your eyes. The gel can be kept (and used) for several days in the refrigerator.
- Softener for the skin around the eyes – put two slices of thinly sliced cucumber on the eyes and cover the eyes with a damp cloth. This simple procedure irons out wrinkles, refreshes the skin and is ideal for relaxing the skin before bed.
- Mask for sensitive skin – mix one spoonful of brewer’s yeast and one spoonful of finely ground oats in a separate bowl. Clean one cucumber and squeeze it in a juicer. Add 2 spoons of yogurt and one spoon of honey. Add yeast and oats. Mix until the mixture is smooth. Keep the mixture on your face for about 15 minutes to half an hour. Wash your face and apply some lotion or moisturizing cream to soften the skin. Cool the mask in the fridge before use for a better effect.
