Most often, parsley leaves are used for masks, which are poured with boiling water and cut in order to obtain natural juice. The resulting mass is the basis for various mixtures. Moreover, it has maximum benefit if a fresh plant is used for masks.

When there is no fresh green in the house, a dry plant can be used. In this case, decoctions and tonics are prepared from it, using as rubbing and washing.

To the effect of the cosmetic product based on parsley was maximally pronounced, it is worth considering its focus. The type of home cosmetics (mask, lotion, tonic, cream, lotion, infusion) will depend on this. For example, masks are necessary to eliminate pigmentation, while lotions can be used to remove bags under the eyes. For their manufacture use gauze.

Small bags are made of it (no larger than the orbit), where they put the finely chopped green of the plant. Then they are dipped in boiling water for about 1 minute, after which they are removed and cooled to a temperature comfortable for the eyes. While they are still warm, they are applied to the eyes, which helps to relieve fatigue and get rid of redness of the skin.

If we consider the decoctions, each woman chooses for herself which particular part of the plant to make them from. When she chooses the option using leaves, the optimal ratio of the recipe is 50 g per 0.4 l of water. The method of preparation of the cosmetic product is to pour chopped greens into the prepared container, pour it with water, put on the stove and cook after boiling for about 15 minutes. After cooling to a comfortable temperature, strain the product.

The convenience of such a decoction is the fact that it can be used in different ways. For example, it may be a self-sufficient means for washing, not requiring additional components to increase efficiency. In addition, toners, masks, compresses and lotions can be prepared on the basis of a parsley broth. In this case, the concentration will be different, but due to other active components it will be possible to affect a specific problem of the skin.

When the roots of a plant are used for decoction, their quantity per glass of water should not exceed more than one tablespoon of the crushed product. Such a potion for the skin of the face can be prepared differently: for example, pour boiling water immediately, then bring to a boil and remove from the stove. The uniqueness of the recipe lies in the fact that the liquid should cool with a closed container, wrapped up. It is best to use a towel for this purpose.

Consider several other effective recipes through which you can significantly improve the condition of the skin.

Preparing a parsley whitening cosmetic lotion that not only evens the tone of the face, but also relieves age-related pigmentation, is not difficult. To do this, you need chopped green plants (1 tablespoon), as well as a glass of mineral water without gas and 50 g of dry white wine. Freshly picked greens are poured with water, put in a water bath for about half an hour. After the lapse of the right time, remove from heat, insist and filter.

After that, wine is added to the still warm mass. To use such a tonic was convenient, it is poured into the container, the remaining field of the used lotion. Use the cosmetic product in the morning and in the evening, while you can wipe it only with previously cleansed skin. Keep this cosmetics away from sunlight and heat.

Cosmetic ice, which not only improves the condition of the epidermis, but also gives it a light tan, can be made from half a liter of pure water, two tablespoons of chamomile flowers, a tablespoon of black tea and a small bunch of fresh parsley. The plant is washed, cut, combined with all other components and put on a slow fire. The mass is brought to a boil, after which they languish for another 15 minutes, and then they insist for another 15 minutes, removing it from the stove.

After the broth cools down a little, it is filtered, squeezing particles of grass, tea and chamomile. Next, the filtered liquid is poured into forms for ice cubes and sent to freeze. When they freeze, they are taken out and rubbed on their faces every day until they run out. In this case, the skin before the procedure should be clean, otherwise the effectiveness of the product will be significantly reduced.

Wipe the face with this ice in a circular motion. This allows you to rejuvenate the skin, saturate the cells with useful substances and vitamins, as well as increase tone. In addition, this procedure also has a disinfecting effect. However, you need to use healthy ice course, so that the cells are not accustomed to it, since this reduces efficiency.

You can make cubes from parsley alone, rubbing it into a liquid mass using a blender. In that case, you will have to fill the forms with squeezed juice. However, such ice is not a universal means for rejuvenating the skin of the face.

These funds differ not only in composition, but also in consistency. For example, a formulation for treating the skin around the eyes sometimes involves the use of not just finely chopped greens, but even gruel. To do this, parsley is ground in a blender, which allows you to get a liquid porridge mass, replete with its own juice. Beauticians note that in this form, the mask has maximum benefit, since the finer the fraction of the main ingredient of the mask, the more pronounced its effect.

However, to prevent the mask from draining from the face, some of the juice must be squeezed. After this, the pulp is applied to the area around the eyes, then covered with cotton pads or gauze swabs and left on the skin for 20 minutes. This tool allows you to effectively deal with the so-called "crow's feet." If you need to even out wrinkles not only in the eye area, but also in other parts of the face, add a spoonful of sour cream to the crushed gruel before application.

When you need to tighten the oval of the face and give the skin elasticity, add yogurt and crushed cucumber to the chopped parsley in equal proportions. From such a mask, after half an hour of application, the skin looks updated and fresh. Fatigue is erased completely, the woman's face seems younger and more even. At the same time, the number of comedones decreases.

If the skin suffers from rosacea or is full of wrinkles, to eliminate this problem you need to make an infusion of parsley mixed with milk in a ratio of 1: 2. The mixed liquid is heated to 40 degrees before use. The course is about 10 procedures, while applying mass to the skin daily.

With aging and pigmented skin, a mask consisting of parsley and dill (1 tablespoon each) and mineral water without gas is used. This tool will whiten the tone of the face, relieve it of dullness, make it fresh. The greens are crushed and combined with water so that it barely covers the green mass. Then it is covered with a lid and removed for infusion for 12 hours.

When time runs out, the mass is slightly wrung out and applied to the steamed face. After about 15-20 minutes, the mass is removed, the skin is washed with a little warm water. The squeezed liquid can be used to wash the skin or use it as a tonic.

To treat sensitive parsley dermis, in addition to water, you can add sage grass. If there is no sage, you can replace it with rose petals.In this case, a glass of boiling water usually leaves one tablespoon of parsley and a second herb. The components are combined, insisted for about 2 hours, then cooled and used as a mask or lotion.

Despite an integrated approach to facial skin care, it is important to take into account the preliminary preparation of the skin. It doesn’t matter which remedy is planned to be used (tonic, whitening mask, anti-pigmentation agent or lotion), the skin should be clean. The maximum severity of the effect can be obtained if it is steamed. However, no matter how you like the recipe, it is important to make a mask strictly taking into account the characteristics of a particular skin type.

Otherwise, home cosmetics can harm the skin condition or even aggravate its appearance. You can add various additives to parsley, including sour cream, milk, kefir and even butter.

The mask can be used for a maximum of 24 hours from the moment of preparation. Regarding ice cubes, it is worth noting that they are stored longer than other types of herbal cosmetics. However, they can not be stored for long: after a week's stay in the freezer, they are not suitable for cosmetic procedures.
