How to get rid of freckles forever - get rid of at home
If the arrival of spring for you is not a joyful event, then most likely, you are worried about one rather common question: how to get rid of freckles forever? And although many men think that freckles give an amazing charm to the fair sex and a sweet piquancy, the latter usually do not share such an exalted opinion about these annoying specks and consider them a cosmetic defect.
But before you get down to business and lime( preferably completely) annoying sunny "jewelry" on the skin, it is worth learning about your "enemy" a little more.
What is "freckle"
Freckles are pigmented spots of small size, having a light brown color. Usually they appear on the face, on the hands and in the decollete area, that is, in the places most often exposed to sunlight.
Normally freckles "love" girls and women with red or fair hair and are an innate property of the skin. Sometimes freckles themselves disappear by the age of 30, but, in most cases, a representative of a beautiful sex will have to fight with them( or be reconciled) for the rest of their lives.
We get rid of freckles
Because you can not get rid of freckles forever for a couple of days( or weeks), to enhance the effect, it is better to consistently use several means. The most popular these days are phyto-protective creams, bleaches and preparations with fruit acids.
Whitening products are specially formulated mixtures containing substances such as salicylic acid, zinc lactate salts, extracts from Chinese aconite, ginseng root, carrot tops and milkweed, and also lemon juice. To apply bleaching agents should be daily, but not longer than 2 months( after the end of this period, it is better to use them not so often - once every two to three days to simply maintain the effect already achieved).
The most difficult thing with the use of whitening products is the need to apply them point-wise - only on freckles themselves. Otherwise, the skin around them will become lighter, which again makes freckles more visible. And do not forget to clear and dry the face before the procedure.
In addition, if you use bleaching agents, try not to expose your face to sunlight - tanning will only cause an increased manifestation of freckles and all your previous labors will go to waste.
Phyto-protective creams should be started already from early spring, when freckles are almost completely absent( in winter they usually become either very pale or disappear altogether).Protecting your skin from the sun, you can reduce its harmful effects, and freckles will not be as bright as usual.
Preparations with fruit acids can be divided into two types:
- the first - a means for chemical peeling - they can be used only in the cold season and it is better not to experiment at home, but to contact a professional cosmetologist;
- the second are creams and ointments with fruit acids, which contain vitamin C, hydrochloric, benzoic, lactic, salicylic acid or body-water - they should be used constantly, starting from the end of winter( the first result will be visible after a couple of weeks after the beginning of theirapplication).
