It is a woman’s nature to love beauty, and this is absolutely true.
Walking on the street, in the subway, or in the office, you can always see sisters secretly adjusting their bangs on their foreheads in front of the camera on their mobile phones, or taking advantage of the little time between applying makeup to take a look at their skin condition in the mirror.
Who doesn’t want to have a clean and translucent face?
But unfortunately, the stain thing climbed up quietly.
The troubles in front of the mirror are the worries of many people
I went to the vegetable market a while ago and met Sister Wang from the fruit stall downstairs.
While weighing the oranges, she sighed helplessly: "Look at my cheekbones. In the past two years, the spots have been increasing day by day. No matter what I apply, it has no effect." Sister Wang is in her mid-thirties and goes to the wholesale market at four o'clock every morning to buy goods. After being exposed to wind and sun, her skin is indeed a bit dull, and there are dots of chloasma on her cheeks.
She wiped the sweat and said with a smile on her face. A few days ago, her daughter said that she was like an old woman. This made her so angry that she couldn't sleep all night. It sounded like a joke, but who would not take it seriously?
Aunt Li, who performs square dancing in the community, is 62 years old. However, her skin is still fair. She said that she has no other special requirements in her life. She just drinks a bowl of yogurt every day without stopping. She also said, "This is for detoxification. Only when the intestines are kept clean will the face naturally look brighter."
Bottles and jars in the kitchen hide the doorway with blemishes
In fact, when ordinary people like us are living our lives, how can we get such expensive medical beauty packages? We all rely on the local recipes and living habits accumulated day by day.
Let’s just talk about vitamin C. Who doesn’t know that this stuff is a good thing now?
Lemons are always available in supermarkets, and you can buy two for three yuan.
My best friend works as a designer in an advertising company and stays up late in front of the computer every day. She has more spots on her face than anyone else.
Her current habit is to cut two slices of lemon every morning, mix it with warm water and a spoonful of honey, then pour it into a tumbler and take it to work.
"Just think of it as drinking water," she said. "It tastes sour and sweet, and is more delicious than plain water. I have been drinking it for more than half a year, and I don't know if it is a psychological effect. I feel that my skin has become a little brighter."
And spinach.
Nowadays, young people are popular for light meals. In fact, our older generation has long known that spinach is good.
Chef Zhang from the small restaurant downstairs said that there is a regular customer in their shop who will definitely order two portions of cold spinach every week. What he wants is the one that is cooked to perfection by blanching it in boiling water and adding some minced garlic and balsamic vinegar.
The customer was in his fifties, and his skin was considered delicate among people of the same age. He claimed that he had been taking it for more than ten years just to covet its rich vitamin content, which could help "fight antioxidants."
Master Zhang didn't quite understand what he said, but he could tell that the guest had few spots on his face.
Sip the vegetable juice, eat the fruits and vegetables, the fireworks of the day
Sometimes I go to my second aunt's house, and I can see that she has a habit after washing her face, which is to cut a few slices of cucumber and put them on her face, or use the remaining celery leaves to squeeze out some juice and slap it on her face.
She said that she learned this from a TV health program, "Chlorophyll can absorb those melanins."
Although the green look on her face is a bit funny, don't tell me, she is already sixty years old. Except for a few wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, her face is indeed clean. After walking out, people will think that she is just in her early fifties.
The second aunt often said: "There is no magical and effective panacea, but you have to be willing to waste this time and energy." She would make a glass of fruit and vegetable juice every morning, put in celery, apples, carrots, whatever else could be put in, and then drink it gurglingly, and claimed that it was "cleansing the stomach and intestines, so that the skin will get better."
A bowl of peach blossom porridge will make you look good
Sister Zhou, who lives in the unit next to us, is a very good person.
Whenever spring comes and the peach blossoms bloom, she will go to the countryside, pick a handful of neat, clean and intact peach petals and put them in a basket, then bring them back, dry them and store them.
I asked her about its use, and she said with a mysterious look: "Make porridge." She cooked the japonica rice and brown sugar to make it glutinous and soft. When it was almost finished, she sprinkled a handful of dried peach petals on it, and then simmered it for a few minutes.
According to her, this is an old recipe passed down from their hometown. They eat it for a few days in a year, then stop for a few days, and then continue to eat it for a few days. This is not for any other reason, just to make the face look rosy, so that the small spots will not pierce the eyes as much as before.
This is probably the sophistication that belongs to ordinary people. It doesn’t cost money, but it takes effort.
Persistence in daily life is stronger than anything else
In fact, when it comes to removing freckles, it is impossible to rush, and you cannot just place your hope on some magical method.
Let’s take a look at the people around us with good skin, whether they are stall operators in the market, white-collar workers in office buildings, or retired aunts. Most of them have one thing in common: they live a regular life, their mentality tends to be peaceful, and they always hold a little persistence of their own.
There are some people who drink a cup of yogurt every day, which is an unshakable habit. Others drink fruit and vegetable juices as daily drinking water. In addition, there are also some people who are always thinking in the kitchen about how to cook spinach more deliciously.
Of course, there are also sisters who have tried it over and over again and found that the effect is slow.
Xiao Wu from the barber shop next to me has been using a freckle-removing cream called Meizier since last year. Every morning after washing my face, I rub it very carefully and massage it until it is absorbed. I also apply it every night after washing my face very carefully and massage it until it is absorbed.
She said that relying on these living habits as the basis, if you want to make the targeting more prominent, you still need to use some items.
"However, you can't rely entirely on it," she said while cutting someone's hair. "Now I will definitely go to bed before 11 o'clock in the evening, eat less spicy food, and always insist on drinking a glass of warm water in the morning. If you are applying facial cream here, but staying up late and eating barbecue every day, then everything is useless." These words are very real, and living a life is a systematic project.
Who is not afraid of old age?
Who doesn’t want a clean face?
In our ordinary lives, there are not so many dramatic counterattacks. What we have is just perseverance in eating three meals a day and a little patience when facing the mirror.
Those annoying spots may not disappear overnight. However, when we start to take our diet and daily life seriously, wash every face meticulously, and apply facial cream carefully, our confidence has actually slowly returned.
After all, this face carries our most real life.
