Professional Hydrating Treatments

Today, cosmetology offers excellent techniques that help to instantly moisturize the skin and start the natural regeneration processes, as well as the production of collagen and elastin.
Biorevitalization
Biorevitalization is an injection procedure in which preparations based on hyaluronic acid are injected under the skin. To achieve the result, it is necessary to undergo 3-5 procedures. After completing the course, metabolic processes in the skin improve, tone increases, it becomes hydrated and acquires a healthy color.

How to moisturize your skin at home
We won’t write about store-bought creams and serums, but about how to moisturize your skin with home remedies. And let’s start with recipes that have long been known, but perhaps you will find something new for yourself.
Oatmeal and Milk
The first mask recipe sounds like breakfast. Only instead of ingestion, oatmeal should be applied to the face. Oat flakes help retain moisture, remove inflammation and flaking.
So, pour 1 tablespoon of oatmeal with 3 tablespoons of hot milk, cover and let swell for 10 minutes (after swelling, you can add a couple of tablespoons of heavy cream or sour cream). The resulting substance is applied to the surface of the skin and lie down to rest. After 20 minutes, wash off with warm water and enjoy the softness and freshness of the face.
Honey and glycerine
Another simple mask that will quickly hydrate your skin. However, it should be remembered that any recipes that contain honey must be used carefully, since bee products are the strongest allergen.
To prepare, mix 2 teaspoons of glycerine (available at the pharmacy) and liquid honey. You can add ground oatmeal or rye flakes, but this is optional. Apply the mask for 10-15 minutes and rinse with warm water. face will be rested and radiant, as if you have just returned from vacation.
Olive oil and vitamins
Oils are in many face mask recipes. They nourish, moisturize, help fight irritation and the first signs of aging. Olive, peach, almond oils are suitable for moisturizing the skin.

Wet the gauze napkin in the resulting composition, leave for 20 minutes. This mask will help dehydrated problematic skin restore lipid balance and elasticity.
