Peppermint masks
Peppermint masks will quickly help refresh oily, aging skin in any conditions. In order to prepare a healthy infusion, you need to brew mint leaves with boiling water. Leave the resulting broth for 25 minutes, then strain thoroughly. Soak cotton pads and keep on face for a maximum of 15 minutes. It is better to make masks from mint infusion in a course (10-12 procedures per month). Peppermint oil in cosmetic products cools and refreshes the skin.
It turns out that mint not only smells good, but it is also very healthy! If you decide to lose weight, then smell mint essential oil; if you have heartburn or nausea, make mint tea.
