How to get rid of freckles?

Representatives of the weak half of humanity are not easy: they certainly want to cut long hair, then to grow it, curly straighten, and smooth, on the contrary, curl .... And so with women in everything, including in relation to freckles. For those who do not have them, these kisses of the sun cause sympathy, and whoever has a desire to get rid of them. Freckles adorn the face of my close friend. But she regularly grumbles that the verb "decorate" is not appropriate here, and is trying all new ways to combat them. There are many methods to get rid of freckles. Prevention of their appearance should begin long before the arrival of warm days. As a result of solar activity, the number of freckles becomes larger. Therefore, measures must be taken in advance. This will avoid new freckles and make the existing ones less noticeable. And at the same time read

 Perhaps the advice of Anastasia will force you to reconsider your freckles, and then advice on how to get rid of them will not be necessary!

Freckles in the spring count

Both much (health, external data, character traits) and freckles are inherited from our parents. Their occurrence is due to the genetically incorporated feature of skin pigmentation. As a rule, the first freckles appear at the age of three to five years. Red-haired and blond women are especially prone to them. It is noticed that the older a person becomes, the less freckles he has. By old age, they disappear completely.

Freckles are also called "sun kisses." With the onset of spring and summer, when solar activity increases, there are more of them. Some representatives of the beautiful half of humanity in winter freckles completely disappear. For example, this happens with my girlfriend. Therefore, she loves this time of year more than others

Freckles most often appear on the face, but can also in other parts of the body. Moreover, I have repeatedly noticed that the "solar scattering" on the shoulders, arms, usually does not cause feelings, it is perceived by the owners of freckles as a feature of the appearance with which it is quite possible to get along, which can not be said about the skin of the face. In this case, the experience of each girl how to get rid of freckles would be enough for a whole book.

So, if you intend to declare war on freckles, remember some rules. Firstly, freckles, as I noted above, love the sun. Therefore, you need to be careful with tanning. When basking on the beach, cover your face with a scarf, and also use a cream with a high level of sun protection and regularly update it on the skin. You can sunbathe before 11 o’clock and after 16. About how to take sunbaths without harm to health, says Tatyana Raduga, the author of the site “Sunny Hands”

Do not forget about hats when walking around the summer city, especially during the holidays in hot countries. A wide-brimmed hat will not only protect your face from freckles, but also prevent dehydration of the skin and the appearance of wrinkles.

Secondly, choose care products also taking into account the tendency of your skin to form freckles, UV filters must be included.

Thirdly, we all know that beauty largely depends on what we eat. This also applies to freckles. The menu should contain daily products containing vitamin C. It is a bleaching agent for freckles and acts as a filter, preventing pigmentation processes. Therefore, lean on citrus fruits, sauerkraut, greens, currants, apples. You can drink a course of this vitamin. It is enough to use it 1 g per day for a month. My girlfriend does this in February.

Fifth, pay attention to cosmetics with a whitening effect - creams, serums, lotions. Use them regularly. Similar products are produced by many cosmetic companies. Together with home masks, they will be even more effective. But do not use whitening cosmetics immediately before going out. This can trigger even more pigmentation. To absorb such funds, they need an hour. On your dressing table should not be alcohol-containing drugs, as they increase the sensitivity of the skin to sunlight.

And finally, fourthly, do not focus your and others' attention on freckles. People perceive you as a whole and, as I have already noted, many of these companions of the sun cause sincere sympathy. Learn to accept yourself for who you are. This is the secret of attractiveness and warm relations with relatives, friends, and colleagues, says Anastasia Gai, editor-in-chief of the Solar Hands portal

 I completely agree with her.

Masks against freckles

Probably, even those on the skin who do not have freckles know about the whitening properties of lemon and cucumber. These products are affordable and effective in combating them. Cucumber juice can not be diluted with water before use, but lemon is necessary (two teaspoons of juice in half a glass of boiled water). Treat your skin twice a day for a month.

Sour-milk products also have whitening qualities. Every day for two weeks, apply a mask of cottage cheese and kefir, taken in equal amounts. Stir the ingredients thoroughly and hold on the skin for 15 minutes.

Other masks will also help get rid of freckles, but you can only do them in the evening, because after them it is undesirable for the sun to fall on the skin.

Pour a tablespoon of raw materials with a glass of boiling water, leave for an hour, strain and wipe your face as many times a day as you can until the effect appears.

For masks to be effective, you need to do them for a half to two months. Be patient. Select one or two masks and alternate them. Watch the reaction of your skin. If you notice irritation, spots on it, discard the mask and do not do other procedures until they pass, so that later you do not have to solve more serious skin problems with freckles.
