- For growing algae, which provide a rejuvenating effect, they take extremely filtered non-cold water or non-carbonated mineral water, because under the influence of hot water algae lose their useful properties.
- The proportions are a glass of water on a tablespoon of powder. The mixture is infused for about an hour and a half, achieving complete absorption of the liquid. The algae are then squeezed through several layers of gauze and then injected into a rejuvenating mask, adding the remaining components (honey, egg, essential oils).

Recipe 4. Laminaria and tea tree ether for oily tablecloth
In addition to the finished mass of seaweed (as in other recipes, you need no more than a few tablespoons), you need to take a few drops of tea tree extract, a teaspoon of liquid honey and peach oil. The ether is introduced into the composition last, then immediately applied to the face. After 20 minutes, clean with lukewarm water, pat dry and apply a nourishing or moisturizing cream.
Salon care options
In addition to home-made facial rejuvenation masks, it is worth "pampering" your skin with well-refreshing salon treatments, which include:
- Deep cleansing chemical peel.
- Improve lymph flow and fluid massage with lymphatic drainage effect.
- Cryotherapy (treatment with liquid nitrogen).
- Mesotherapy (injectable or non-injectable use of active substances).

- Mechanical cleaning in the form of dermabrasion.
Professional modeling compositions also perform well. Separately, it is worth noting the tool Collamask - rejuvenating face cream-mask, which contains amino acids, collagen, blue clay, betaine, esters, sodium alginate. Just one session is enough to smooth fine wrinkles, restore evenness and elasticity.
As for Botox injections, for this age group they lose compared to the home masks described above, as the effect is manifested only in the form of removing wrinkles, and sagging skin does not lift (it is impossible to completelyrejuvenate the appearance).
