Drinking milk and taking milk baths are both ways to achieve the highest level of skin beauty. However, not everyone knows how to use milk for beauty. Below, we will teach you different ways to use milk for different beauty effects.
Milk for exfoliation
Ingredients: an appropriate amount of milk.
Instructions: Dip a clean cotton pad into a sufficient amount of milk, then evenly wipe your entire face. Once the milk on your face dries, wipe it again. Repeat this process several times, and finally rinse your face with warm water.
Effect: Using milk as a face mask can promote skin cell metabolism, improve skin circulation, and increase the smoothness of the skin. It also has a certain effect in inhibiting or even eliminating skin spots.
Milk for moisturizing and wrinkle prevention
Ingredients: 3 tablespoons of milk, 3 tablespoons of flour.
Instructions: Mix the milk and flour in a container until it becomes a paste. Apply the mask evenly on your face and wash it off with warm water after it dries completely.
Effect: This mask can effectively nourish the skin and moisturize it. However, avoid using it too frequently to prevent excessive nutrition and the formation of milia.
Milk for softening the skin
Ingredients: 250ml fresh milk, 50g fresh strawberries.
Instructions: Wash the strawberries with clean water and crush them. Filter the strawberry juice through a double-layered gauze and mix it with fresh milk. Apply the strawberry milk mixture to your face and neck, and massage gently. After 15 minutes, rinse it off.
Effect: The vitamins in milk and strawberries can effectively soften and smooth the skin.
Milk for skin whitening
Ingredients: 1 tablespoon of milk, 2 tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide, 3 tablespoons of flour, a little water.
Instructions: Mix the milk, hydrogen peroxide, flour, and water until well blended. Apply the mask gently and evenly on your face with a soft brush. Wash it off with warm water after it dries on your face.
Effect: Milk is rich in nutrients, including high-quality fats, various proteins, vitamins, and minerals. It especially contains a large amount of B vitamins, which can moisturize the skin, protect the epidermis, prevent cracking and wrinkles, and make the skin smooth, soft, and fair.
Milk for reducing eye puffiness
Ingredients: an appropriate amount of milk and vinegar.
Instructions: Mix an appropriate amount of milk and vinegar with hot water. Then repeatedly wash your eyelids with this mixture for 3-5 minutes. Apply a hot towel on your eyelids for a while to instantly reduce puffiness. Alternatively, soak two pieces of cotton pads in frozen milk, then apply them to the swollen eyelids for about 10 minutes, and rinse with clean water.
Effect: Milk has the effect of tightening the skin, which can be used to eliminate eye puffiness.
Milk for relieving sunburn
Ingredients: an appropriate amount of milk, 1 sheet of facial mask paper.
Instructions: Wash your face with frozen milk, then apply a sheet of facial mask paper soaked in milk on your entire face. Alternatively, use a thin towel soaked in milk and apply it to the affected areas. After 20 minutes, rinse it off with clean water. If you have sunburn all over your body, you can take a milk bath to soothe the skin, reduce pain, and prevent inflammation.
Effect: Milk not only provides nutrition to the skin but also has anti-inflammatory, anti-swelling, and skin-relaxing effects due to its enzyme properties.
Milk for deep cleansing
Ingredients: 3 capsules of vitamin E, 2 tablespoons of milk, half a tablespoon of honey, a few drops of lemon juice.
Instructions: Pierce the vitamin E capsules and squeeze the contents into an empty bowl. Add milk, honey, and lemon juice, then mix well. Apply the mixture evenly on your face and wash it off with warm water after 15 minutes.
Note: After washing your face, you can also gently massage with yogurt containing active lactobacillus to thoroughly remove dirt from your pores.
Effect: Lemon juice helps soften the stratum corneum. When combined with vitamin E, milk, and honey, it can cleanse the skin while providing better nutrition. After washing your face, you will feel refreshed and have a radiant complexion.
