Aevit as a face mask (English)

All products are good in the fight for youthful skin, but for facial care at home it is better to choose not only the most effective, but also the safest.

The whole truth and myths of the action of “Aevit” on wrinkles

“Aevit” is a complex preparation that contains two important beauty vitamins – A and E. “Aevit” can be purchased in the form of capsules, injection solutions and face cream, including a vitamin duet. However, it is pharmacy capsules, and not ready-made cream, that are more effective in the fight against wrinkles.

Double blow - the secret to smoothing the skin from the outside and inside

There is nothing surprising in the way Aevit works on wrinkles from the inside. Vitamins A (retinol) and E (tocopherol) – powerful antioxidants, promoting the proliferation of epithelial cells and tissue growth. Internal administration of the vitamin complex is prescribed to women to combat age-related changes and various hormonal disorders, including menopause.

A course of oral administration helps:

get rid of dry skin - the first enemy of a smooth and healthy complexion;
activate the growth of healthy cells - that is, quickly renew the skin, promoting rejuvenation;
improve microcirculation and nutrition of the epidermis;
strengthen capillary blood circulation and increase the skin's defenses and resistance to external factors;
normalize the level of sex hormones, which are also responsible for the condition of the skin.

Taking the drug orally can only be started after consultation with a doctor. There are contraindications.

Does Aevit help against wrinkles if used only externally? Yes, because the epidermis is capable of absorbing substances and being restored under their influence. Retinol and tocopherol are often found in expensive home and professional care products, including injectable anti-aging treatments.

How to achieve maximum effect

It is correct to use “Aevit” against wrinkles in a complex – outside and inside. Internal use slowly but steadily normalizes the condition of the skin, and external use allows you to get quick results. Local application is noticeable almost immediately - tightness disappears, fine wrinkles are smoothed out, skin flaking stops, complexion becomes healthy and fresh.

At home, the complex can be used:

to enrich masks based on natural products;
as a component in the preparation of homemade creams and other care products for the face and body;
to improve the properties of vegetable oils used for local effects on wrinkles;
for enhanced nutrition of the skin of the lips;
directly onto the area of wrinkles, gently rubbing the product.

Of course, Aevit has the best effect for fine wrinkles – facial folds at the mouth and forehead. Regular use helps smooth out crow's feet in the eye area. Flabby skin and bags under the eyes, which increase the appearance of wrinkles, can also be noticeably refreshed by reducing swelling and comprehensive nutrition.

Serious age-related changes cannot be eliminated only by cosmetic procedures; a drastic measure is needed here - plastic surgery or softer methods, for example, mesotherapy.

Homemade masks based on "Aevit"

Preparing homemade masks does not take much time. You can always find half an hour for the procedure in the evening or on a weekend. It’s only difficult in the first days, but then noticeable results stimulate self-care.

General rules for preparing and using masks

In order for self-made masks based on “Aevit” to bring maximum benefit and not cause allergic reactions, it is important to adhere to a number of rules:

Prepare masks only from fresh products. You cannot dispose of spoiled fruits, vegetables that have rotted on one side, and sour cream that has stood in the refrigerator for several days.
It is better to mix the components in a glass container - it is inert and does not interact with acids and alkalis.
Homemade masks cannot be stored - they should be applied immediately after preparation.
Before using the mask, the skin must be thoroughly cleaned of makeup and impurities.
If you feel discomfort during the procedure, you need to wash your face and apply a proven soothing agent to the skin.
One procedure cannot be effective - the result will be noticeable only after the course. We'll have to be patient.

Before using any recipe, you must do an allergy test. Apply the mixture to a small area and wait 5-10 minutes.

Potato-based face masks

Potatoes are rich in microelements beneficial for the skin; they are often included in homemade masks, both boiled and raw. The best masks with potatoes with the addition of “Aevit”:

Boil one potato in its jacket, peel, mash with a fork, let cool to a comfortable temperature, add the contents of two capsules, stir. Apply an even layer on the face for 15 minutes. Rinse off with warm water. Do it two or three times a week.
Add an egg yolk, half a teaspoon of olive oil and two capsules of the vitamin complex to the mashed boiled potatoes. Apply for a quarter of an hour, rinse.
Grate a small raw potato on a fine grater, add the solution from the capsule, stir and apply under the eyes.
Take a teaspoon each of grated raw potatoes and fresh cucumber. Pour in two capsules of vitamins, stir and apply for 20 minutes. Wash with warm water.

IMPORTANT! For dry skin, it is recommended to choose nourishing masks or enrich the compositions with basic cosmetic oils.

Beauty recipes from affordable products

To prepare anti-wrinkle masks with the addition of Aevita, use cucumber, herbs, bananas, apples, egg yolk, cereal, sour cream, wheat flour and other available products. Proven recipes:

Finely chop the parsley to make a paste. Add one capsule of vitamin composition to each teaspoon of mass. Apply a mask with herbs to your face for 20 minutes. If the skin is dry, it is recommended to add a little sour cream or vegetable oil.
Pour two capsules of the drug into a tablespoon of natural cream. Mix “Aevit” well with oily creams and apply to areas with wrinkles. Can be used for the eye area and lips. Wash off after a quarter of an hour.
Turn half a ripe banana into puree, mix two drops of the solution into the banana mass, use for a mask, rinse after 15-20 minutes.
Enrich two tablespoons of oatmeal, cooked with water or milk, but without salt and sugar, with three capsules. Apply a thick layer of the mask with oatmeal and Aevit to your face. Wash off after 20 minutes. Can be applied locally, for example, only on the forehead.
Grind fresh chicken yolk well with a teaspoon of honey, half a teaspoon of olive oil and a capsule of Aevita. It is recommended to leave this mask on for about 15 minutes.

IMPORTANT! The skin in the eye area stretches easily; masks should be applied along massage lines with light movements.

How to remove wrinkles in the eye area

Cucumber, Aevit and wheat flour help against wrinkles under the eyes even in case of noticeable changes. To a teaspoon of cucumber puree you need to add two capsules of vitamins and a little flour so that the composition stays on the skin. Apply the mixture to the lower eyelid for a quarter of an hour, then rinse off. Do it at least three times a week.

For dry skin, masks based on dairy products—fat sour cream and cottage cheese—are good for getting rid of wrinkles. “Aevit” should be added at the rate of three drops for every teaspoon.

If not only wrinkles, but also dark circles are noticeable under the eyes, it is recommended to add fresh parsley gruel, chopped in a blender or with a knife, to sour cream or cottage cheese. Lemon, known for its whitening properties, is not suitable in this area.

It is best to apply Aevit locally to crow's feet in combination with cosmetic oils. The leaders in the fight for smooth skin are the following oils:

castor oil (relieves not only wrinkles, but also scars);
olive;
almond;
wheat germ;
linen;
apricot;
pink.

Before adding vitamins to the oil, it must be slightly warmed to skin temperature. This way the components will quickly penetrate the epidermis and do their job. It is better to apply oil products with light patting movements. The remains can not be washed off, but absorbed with a paper napkin without effort.

Oils Not recommended Apply to the upper and lower eyelids, there may be swelling.

Mask with lifting effect

Lifting tightens the skin, making it more elastic and resistant to stretching. Among older women, a lifting mask for mature skin based on yolk, Aevita and salt is very popular. The recipe is simple:

Separate the egg yolk and grind it well with a pinch of salt until smooth.
Pour four vitamin capsules into the yolk mixture and mix well again.
Apply the composition to the face in a thin layer. You should not try to use all the product at once - it should be applied in layers in several stages.
As soon as the yolk mixture dries (no earlier than 5 minutes), apply a second layer on top.
Wait for it to cure and spread the third layer on the skin. Use the remainder for the fourth application.
When the last layer dries and your face begins to tighten, rinse with warm water and use a proven cream.

How to remove wrinkles and get rid of sagging neck

When getting rid of wrinkles on the face, it is important not to forget about the neck, because it is this part of the body that mercilessly reveals a woman’s age. For the neck, you can use the same masks as for the face, but wraps are more effective for this area.

Lightly heat olive or flaxseed oil in a water bath. Add four capsules of the vitamin duo to each tablespoon of oil. Generously coat the neck with enriched oil and wrap with cotton cloth. You can cover the top with a scarf or handkerchief to enhance the effect. Soak up any remaining residue with a paper towel or rinse off if it irritates.
Mix vegetable oil, honey and egg yolk in equal volumes. For every teaspoon of the mixture, add two drops of vitamins. Use the same as in the above recipe.
Grate a large cucumber, previously peeled. Mix cucumber pulp with a vitamin solution and apply generously to the neck area, wrap for 20 minutes, and rinse. This mask with Aevit not only acts against wrinkles, but also brightens the neck.

Beauty is not only an innate concept, but also an acquired one. The sooner you include Aevit in your care, the more effective the fight against wrinkles will be. After all, preventing age-related skin changes is much easier than eliminating them.

Aevit is a multivitamin preparation, the defining property of which is the presence and concentration of vitamins A and E. It is produced in capsules of various compositions and modifications, mainly by Russian, but also by some foreign manufacturers (Belarus, Ukraine, Bulgaria). The drug is sold in pharmacies, available without a prescription and has a low price.

Chemical composition

Aevit is available in gelatin-coated capsules or glass ampoules with an oil solution containing fat-soluble vitamins A and E in high doses. Refined vegetable oils (corn, soy or sunflower oil) are used as a base. The percentage of vitamins in the product is determined by the manufacturing companies. Their quantity in milligrams (mg) and the percentage of the daily dose required by a person is indicated in the accompanying instructions and on the packaging.

Vitamin A

It was discovered by scientists in 1913 and received the letter designation A, since it became the first vitamin known to mankind. The name unites a group of substances that are similar in composition, the most famous of which is retinol. Retinol in its pure form is unstable - it is destroyed when exposed to light and upon contact with air. Therefore, it is industrially produced in a form suitable for use: in the form of retinol acetate or retinol palmitate. In the beauty industry, it is an important ingredient in cosmetics, which:

accelerates the process of blood circulation in tissues and promotes saturation with useful substances;
has a natural peeling effect, improving complexion and skin texture;
neutralizes inflammatory processes and fights against acne;
participates in the synthesis of collagen, which increases skin firmness and elasticity;
strengthens cellular immunity, increases the protective functions of the skin under the influence of negative environmental factors (sunlight, frost, wind);
retains moisture at the cellular level, helping to moisturize the skin, preventing dryness and flaking;
is an antioxidant that can interact with free radicals and, due to this, rejuvenate the skin and eliminate the signs of premature aging.

Vitamin E

It was opened in 1922. Later it received the name tocopherol, which translated from Greek means “bearing offspring.” The name pays tribute to the key importance of the vitamin for reproductive activity. As in the case of vitamin A, it is a group of substances. In cosmetology, vitamin E:

acts as an effective antioxidant;
regulates fat metabolism in tissues;
stimulates the process of regeneration of epidermal cells;
fights pigment spots.

Marina, 29 years old Not a single week goes by without me using Aevit on my facial skin. The problem area is freckles and age spots. To remove them or temporarily disguise them, twice a week I use the oil composition in its pure form. I open the contents of the capsule and begin to rub it into problem areas with massaging movements. Helps great.

Olga, 35 years old To quickly get rid of goose bumps and dead skin cells on the face, I regularly use proven Aevit vitamins. The most effective recipe is to mix the contents of the capsule with boiled potatoes, since the changes are obvious after the first procedure at home. The recipe is simple and reliable.

Maria, 37 years old I regularly make myself anti-aging masks with Aevit. I simply add a few drops of oil from the capsule to any day or night cream, after which I thoroughly treat all problem areas with the finished composition, especially the area around the eyes and lips. The product is reliable and effective, a budget option for an anti-aging procedure.
