1. Pomegranate

You can not doubt the effectiveness of anti-aging cream or serum with pomegranate. Only in its extract contains the antioxidant punicalagin, which almost halves the aging process of the skin. Pomegranate oil, due to the miniature size of the molecules, penetrates the cells, regulating the sebaceous glands. And pomegranate juice is added to creams when you need to get rid of pigmentation.

2.Chia seeds

Most girls are familiar with chia seeds (or seeds of Spanish sage) as a means to lose weight. They are 12 times larger in volume when washed down with water, so even a small handful causes prolonged saturation. But chia is also good at skin care. They are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, calcium, vitamins PP, A and K. In addition, they can be called a natural antibiotic that accelerates the healing of wounds and inflammations.
You can supplement the cream you bought in the store with chia scrub made from grains, made by yourself. For this, 2 tbsp. l mix chia with 125 ml of coconut oil and 1 tbsp. l lemon juice.Before applying the scrub, wash with warm water. Massage your skin with a scrub and leave it for five to seven minutes so that it works like a nourishing mask. It’s better not to wash, but to wipe your face with cotton pads dipped in cool water.

3. Cranberries

Do you have colored hair and need shampoo to give shine? Choose a shampoo with cranberries! Its seeds contain omega-3, 6 and 9 fatty acids, as well as tocopherols and vitamin A, which smooth the surface of the hair and give it a mirror shine. And besides this, the hair is less tangled and easier to style.

4. Oil moringa

Why add moringa to body creams and hair masks? So that from ordinary means they turn into super moisturizing! This oil is one of the record holders for oleic acid content. It not only penetrates deep into the skin, giving it intense nutrition, but also traps moisture inside it. Dry skin really softens and transforms.

5. Goji berries

They contain 19 amino acids, 8 of which are indispensable, and in terms of a set of minerals valuable to the skin: potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium - goji berries are 6 times ahead of bee pear! They say that if you start using cream with goji berries from the age of 25, you will slow down the process of wrinkles or you will not come across them at all. Will you check?

6. Acai Berries

It is believed that acai creams tighten, strengthen and smooth the skin no worse than professional lifting procedures. The secret is in plant pigments, anthocyanins, which neutralize free radicals and inhibit the aging process.

Remember this!

Even the most useful plant can cause allergies! If you know that facial skin can react to the composition of the cream, test it. Put a little on the arm (on the bend of the elbow joint): there should be no itching, rashes, burning.
