Anti-wrinkle cream based on beeswax

Good day, dear ladies! Today we again continue the theme of our eternal struggle with the external manifestations of age, and to be even more precise, we will prepare a creamy homemade elixir of youth.

We already know how to do this, right? We prepared face and body creams (here and here), so now we can proudly be called inveterate kitchen chemists. And today, when we (I don’t know about you, but I definitely) have become almost professionals in making creams ourselves, it’s time to create an anti-wrinkle cream at home.

I think you remember very well the basic principles of making effective homemade creams with your own hands. But if you forgot, it’s okay, repetition is the mother of learning. Here they are in brief:

5 ingredients for rejuvenation potion

What can we say about housewives who push saucepans to the edge of the table so that they can quickly whip up a miracle potion that prolongs youth while their husbands and children are off to school and work? People like you and me, dear ladies, would have been burned at the stake in the Middle Ages, and in Ancient Rus' they would have been respectfully called “knowing mothers.” A knowing mother is a witch. But every woman should have a little bit of a witch. You agree with me?

So, we make up our magic potion from five types of components:

1. The first is a solid base (beeswax, lanolin, coconut oil), which must be melted in a water bath.
2. The second is a liquid base (glycerin, natural vegetable liquid oils), added to the melted solid phase.
3. The third component is an emulsifier. I suffered for a long time, trying to remember this word, and then I realized that I suffered in vain and remembered it forever. Do you know how? An emulsifier is a substance that helps form a stable mixture of liquid and solid components of our cream - an emulsion. Emulsifier – emulsion, everything is simple, isn’t it? The emulsifier can be a solid phase substance: lanolin, beeswax, lecithin, gelatin. It can also be an essential oil (tea tree, for example), a chemical from a pharmacy (guar gum, sucrose stearate).
4. The fourth component is the aqueous phase. It can be distilled water, herbal infusions and decoctions, tea, even juice and milk.
5. And the last issue of our program is bioactive supplements (vitamins, aloe, etc.).

Important! Active components may be destroyed when heated. Therefore, they are introduced into the cooling cream at a temperature below 42 degrees with intensive stirring and whipping.

Two bat wings, two snake tongues

Component ratios. This is a very important point. Why? The fact is that some substances can be mixed with each other only if they are taken in certain proportions.

So for our cream, in order for its consistency to be ideal, we must take 30% of the base (if we take a mixture of solid and liquid bases, for example, beeswax - glycerin, then in total there should be about 30-40%) and approximately 60 % aqueous phase. We scatter the remaining 10% into an emulsifier, active additives, etc.

Note: Some creams are prepared using a different technology, without heating. Therefore, they are more like masks, and their shelf life is short.

You, of course, remember what kind of dishes we need? No? To prepare the cream you will need:

1. water bath,
2. glass bowls,
3. glass jars,
4. mixer (mini),
5. thermometer (for liquid),
6. a glass or wooden spoon for stirring (metal can react with the components of the cream and ruin our Cream Maker Day),
7. syringe (or pipette) for adding active ingredients.

Witch's cauldron

Basic cooking method (hot method). Heat the solid base in a bathhouse until completely melted, add the liquid base to it, mix very well and add the emulsifier. Gradually introduce the aqueous phase into the mixture. In small portions, constantly stirring with the mixer turned off.

Attention! When combining the oil and water phases, monitor the temperature. The difference should not exceed 5°C. Otherwise, there is a high probability of delamination of the finished product.

Stirred? Remove from the bath and start whisking. Cool to 35-40°C, add active additives and beat until completely cooled. Place in clean jars and put in the refrigerator.

The witches' dances are over - harsh everyday life has begun. We wash the dishes, remove traces of creaming and again, to divert attention, we place pots of our favorite borscht throughout the kitchen.

Recipes for drugs that restore former beauty

I tried to imagine what this title would look like in a medieval incunabulum book. I think many women of that time would have given a lot to know such a secret.

But let's get to the point. Here I will provide recipes for experienced cream makers, recipes that are prepared with some deviation from standard technology. Therefore, if something doesn’t work out, you can decrease or increase the ratio of solid to liquid phase until you begin to get a stable emulsion.

Anti-wrinkle night cream

This is a night cream for combination or dry skin that soothes, relieves irritation, nourishes and smoothes wrinkles. How to make it?

Prepare a potion from:

1. calendula infusion (30 ml),
2. calendula oil (20 ml),
3. almond oil (40 ml),
4. lemon juice (10 ml),
5. emulsifier (aka solid base) – beeswax (20 g).

As active ingredients, take essential oils of lemon and frankincense (5-10 drops each). This recipe has a reduced amount of water phase, so it will be stored longer than when prepared in compliance with all proportions - from two weeks to a month.

We follow the technology: melt the wax, add the liquid base and liquid phase, stir with a non-metallic spoon (so as not to spoil the cream). Remove from the bath, add lemon juice and essential oils, beat and cool. Apply at night to cleansed skin.

By the way! Share the recipe for this cream with your husband. He doesn’t want to grow old either, and this wonderful remedy is suitable for both women and men.

Did you manage? And this cream is even easier to prepare:

Miracle cream

Heat a glass of olive oil in a water bath, add 30g of beeswax to it. Gently stir over the heat until the wax is completely dissolved, just do not bring to a boil.

Has the mixture melted? Now you need to very carefully add half the yolk. Be careful, because our potion will begin to greatly increase in volume and we must constantly stir it. Thus, bring the composition to a boil and remove from heat. If you get a not entirely homogeneous mass, pass it through a sieve.

This is truly a wonderful cream. I don’t know what’s so special about it, but it works better than any expensive one, and it’s also very useful for nails, so be sure to try it!

Anti-wrinkle eye cream

To make a cream for the skin around the eyes, which helps relieve swelling, make the skin of the eyelids elastic, and remove crow's feet, we will need:

1. beeswax (1 g) and
2. lanolin (3 g) – as a solid base and emulsifier,
3. 4 ml peach oil and
4. 6 ml water.

Here, too, the amount of water is reduced, which increases shelf life. Prepare according to the following scheme: melt the solid, add liquid oil and add water while stirring.

Gelatin cream mask

A wonderful and very effective gelatin cream mask will help both from the first wrinkles and from deep ones. Dilute 5 g of gelatin in half a glass of water (soak for an hour), add 50 g of honey, 70 g of glycerin and 1 g of salicylic acid. Place in a bathhouse and stir until the ingredients are completely dissolved. Remove and cool while whisking.

The result is a thick, viscous mask that is convenient to apply to the face with a brush. You shouldn’t keep it on your face for more than an hour, but it smooths out wrinkles “perfectly.”

Lifting

After 40 years, the skin changes, it needs more serious nutrition and procedures aimed at increasing the amount of collagen in the skin. Cream-lifting from our boiler meets these requirements. Even a Japanese massage cannot compare with this cream.

Let's prepare a water infusion of thyme or St. John's wort; we will need 6 tablespoons of it. Solid phase – cocoa butter (2 tbsp.). Active ingredients – 1 capsule of vitamin E or aevit, 5 drops of lavender and rosehip essential oils. We prepare according to the scheme.

My dears, I hope today’s article was useful to you. If so, share it on social networks, subscribe to the news, and if you have questions, ask in the comments. With that, I take my leave. Until new recipes!

The range of cosmetic products today is so diverse that every customer will be able to choose the most suitable anti-aging face cream for herself. However, purchased products cannot boast of the safety that creams prepared independently at home have.

They are enriched with nourishing base and essential oils, beeswax, glycerin, and other components that promote effective skin rejuvenation. At the same time, homemade creams do not contain hazardous preservatives and parabens, which can only worsen the condition of the skin.

In this article, we have collected very simple, yet effective recipes for homemade anti-aging remedies that eliminate the first signs of aging. In addition to smoothing out wrinkles, such creams have the following benefits:

1. perfectly nourish and moisturize the epidermis;
2. improve complexion;
3. relieve inflammation and irritation;
4. help reduce pores;
5. give the skin a matte finish.

Day cream recipes

It is worth immediately noting that creams made at home should be stored in a tightly closed, dry, clean container for no more than one month. For convenience, it is recommended to immediately stick a label on the jar, which will indicate the date of preparation.

Under no circumstances should you use a product that has expired. Spoiled food produces harmful toxins that can cause a serious allergic reaction.

For wrinkles with cognac

Quite a popular method of preparation, demonstrating visible results of rejuvenation on aging skin after 40 years.

All you need is:

1. 2 tsp dessert cognac;
2. 1 chicken yolk;
3. tbsp honey;
4. 100 g heavy cream;
5. a couple of drops of lemon juice.

To prepare a rejuvenating face cream, just combine all the above ingredients in a convenient container, then heat the resulting mixture using a water bath. The heated mass is kept on fire for 5-10 minutes until a thick cream consistency is obtained.

The finished composition is applied to cleansed facial skin, and after half an hour the remaining product is removed with warm water. For the best effect, it is recommended to first cleanse the face of the stratum corneum of the epithelium using a scrub or peeling.

Glycerin

1. ½ tsp. camphor alcohol;
2. 2 tsp lemon juice;
3. 1 tsp honey;
4. 1 tsp glycerin;
5. 1 yolk;
6. 2 tsp olive oils.

Honey is ground with egg yolk, and then olive oil is added to the mixture. The components are heated in a water bath, while constantly stirring the mixture with a whisk.

Next, slowly pour in the alcohol, add all the remaining products, without stopping the process of stirring the mixture. The cream is left on the face for 20 minutes, after which the residue is removed with water or a cotton pad.

Currant

To prepare this home remedy, you should prepare in advance: several currants, 3 rowan leaves, 5 fresh nettle leaves, several red rose and jasmine inflorescences, 2 tsp. beeswax, 2 tsp melted margarine, 1 tbsp. any nourishing oil and 1 tsp. liquid retinol. To begin with, all herbal ingredients are crushed using a blender, after which they are thoroughly mixed with the rest of the cream ingredients.

Honey

You will need:

1. crushed beeswax – 20 g;
2. shea butter – 2 tsp;
3. coconut and almond oil - 1 tbsp each;
4. rose water – 1 tsp;

Then combine the previously prepared oil mixture with the honey mass and mix the components thoroughly.
The resulting consistency is removed from the heat, cooled for 15 minutes, after which liquid vitamin E and ylang-ylang essential oil are added to the cream. Honey anti-wrinkle cream is used twice a day: morning and evening.

Olive

This cream has a fairly rich, thick texture that is absorbed into the skin within 20 minutes. Therefore, we recommend using this recipe as night care for dry epidermis.

It is necessary to mix olive and coconut oil (2 tablespoons each) and heat the ingredients. Then add 1 tsp to the mixture. tocopherol and a few drops of lavender essential oil. To give the cream a lighter, airy texture, the heated mixture should be thoroughly beaten, then immediately cool the resulting consistency.

Butter with rowan

Red and black pearls of berries contain large amounts of vitamin C and other organic acids, which contribute to intensive rejuvenation of epithelial cells. To prepare, take a tablespoon of crushed berries and combine it with the same amount of butter. Add honey (1 tsp) to the resulting mixture and beat the ingredients until smooth.

Use the finished nourishing product before bed, applying a thin layer of cream to cleansed facial skin. As a result, facial and static wrinkles are smoothed out, the shade of the dermis is evened out, and the water balance of the epidermis is restored.

With gelatin

This product has a cumulative effect, so visible rejuvenation results are possible only with regular use of gelatin-based cream. The cooking process consists of several stages:

1. Gelatin (1 tbsp) is diluted in mineral water (1 tbsp), and the resulting mixture is left until the powder swells.
2. The infused mass is heated using a water bath until a homogeneous consistency is formed.
3. Next, the dissolved gelatin is cooled to room temperature, after which honey (4 tbsp) is poured into the mixture. Mix the components thoroughly.

For different skin types

Before choosing one or another anti-aging recipe, you should take into account the needs of your skin type. For those with oily skin, it is recommended to enrich the product with light non-comedogenic oils such as grape or peach seeds. Fermented milk products have a beneficial effect on the sebaceous glands, which reduce the production of sebum. Essential oils of patchouli, tea tree and eucalyptus have an antiseptic effect.
For dry skin prone to flaking, intensive nourishing formulations based on coconut, olive or butter oils are suitable. To maintain the youthfulness of combination skin, you should give preference to anti-aging creams with a whitening effect, which contain citrus essential oils and honey.
