The red wine mask has the effects of promoting blood circulation and repairing cell tissue. It is especially effective for friends with acne scars. Its effect is long-lasting, and it will be effective if you insist on using it 2-3 times a week for more than 3 months! Grapes are rich in antioxidant polyphenols, which can enhance skin resistance and promote blood circulation in the skin, making the skin look fair and rosy. Therefore, the most important thing when making a homemade red wine mask is to choose the wine. Never try cheap wine that looks like grape juice on your face, otherwise you will definitely regret it.
Allergy test: Although many peoples skin looks brand new after applying a red wine mask, because the red wine mask contains alcohol, even if part of the alcohol has evaporated after treatment, some people with sensitive skin will still be allergic to it. So before using it for the first time, be sure to do an allergy test for yourself. When testing, prepare a small amount of red wine mask. Instead of adding paper mask, apply a small amount on your elbows or neck. If there is no redness, swelling, itching or other irritation after 24 hours (preferably outside in the sun during the day), apply it to the face again.
Materials required: half a teaspoon of hyaluronic acid powder, 50ml of purified water, 50ml of red wine, 2 tablespoons of gel-forming agent, about 0.5ml of antibacterial agent (scientific name: phenoxyethanol), and a few drops of plant essential oil (can also be omitted).
Applicable skin type: normal, sensitive and dry skin.
Equipment: Measuring spoons, measuring cups, empty bottles, vials.
1. Add 50ml pure water into the small bottle. The inside of the small bottle must be brushed clean to ensure it is oil-free, and when choosing a small bottle, you should also pay attention. The capacity must be greater than 100ml, and try to choose a transparent plastic bottle that is easy to hold (you will know the reason later). If you don't have a measuring cup, you can also choose to use a potion bottle (usually potion bottles have graduations) instead.
2. Add 50ml of red wine into the small bottle filled with purified water. You can choose red wine by yourself. Most supermarkets sell it. The cheap ones only cost about 10 yuan. If you don’t use up, you can reuse it next time or drink it (red wine is good for the heart. Recent scientific research has revealed that red wine is good for the heart. Here’s the good news, red wine also has a positive effect on nourishing and protecting the lungs). But try not to choose osmanthus-type red wine. The color is too light and the color will not look good.
This is a red wine mask I made with osmanthus wine. It looks obviously lighter in color.
3. Add 2 tablespoons of gel former to the mixture of red wine and purified water. If you don’t have a measuring spoon, just use the spoon that comes with the bucket of laundry detergent you buy from outside. Be sure to keep the gel former immersed in the solution. Be sure~~~~!
4. This is the mixed solution with the gel forming agent added. If you look carefully below, you can see a clear solid mass sinking below. Be sure! Be sure! Let the gel-forming agent be immersed in the solution! This is very important~~~~~~~~!
5. The next thing to do is to let it sit and wait~~~~! It is recommended that you do the first 4 steps at night, and then you can wait for this step while sleeping. A certain amount of time must be sufficient, because if there is not enough time, the gel-forming agent will not dissolve with the mixed solution. You can shake the bottle vigorously after getting up in the morning to see if the gel former is completely dissolved. If not, continue this step. Now you know why you should choose a transparent plastic bottle that is easy to hold, right? You can observe through the bottle whether there are any undissolved gel pieces inside, and when you shake the bottle vigorously, you will know that the better you can hold it, the better. Use your strength. You must work hard~~~!
6. After a long wait, the gel-forming agent is finally completely dissolved in the mixed solution. At this time, you can also find that many fine foams can be shaken out of the bottle, and the mixed liquid also becomes Its gelatinous. If not enough gel-forming agent is added, the liquid will turn into a thin gel. If you are not satisfied with this state, you can add some more gel-forming agent and repeat steps 3-5. If you do this step well, you will be more than half successful! Come on~~~~~
7. The next step is to add 1 teaspoon of hyaluronic acid powder into the mixture. . Must! Be sure! Let the hyaluronic acid powder be soaked in the solution! This is also very important~~~~~~~~! This is a very good moisturizing thing! Hyaluronic acid is a mucopolysaccharide, also known as hyaluronic acid. It has very good water absorption and very strong moisturizing function. One molecule of hyaluronic acid can bind approximately 500 times of water molecules. When used for moisturizing, it can not only keep the skin hydrated, but also capture water molecules from the external environment to keep the skin moist. Condition, hyaluronic acid is quite sticky and slippery, and only a small amount is needed to have a good effect. Many essences sold on the market will add hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is very expensive. 1kg of pure powdered hyaluronic acid costs tens of thousands to more than one hundred thousand, so half of the cost of this mask is in the hyaluronic acid powder. Don’t waste it~~~~
8. The next thing to do is to wait~~ This time it will not take very long, about 1-2 hours, and then shake vigorously until the hyaluronic acid powder is completely dissolved in the mixture. It must be completely dissolved! Be sure to shake it fully! At this time, you will find that many, many, many fine foams will not come out after shaking, but there will still be a lot of fine foams. (The above is “many, many, many”). You will succeed~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
9This is not enough, because red wine is not easy to store at room temperature, and it can only be stored in the refrigerator for about one month, so look at this! Dang Dang Dang! It is an antibacterial agent, and its scientific name is phenoxyethanol. Add a few drops and it can be stored for up to 6 months!
10. At this time you have succeeded! Congratulations~~Congratulations~~~~! If you don’t like the smell of red wine, you can also add a few drops of essential oil into it. If you feel that the color is not as dark as the red wine mask on the market, you can also add a little red wine polyphenols into it. It is not expensive, only a few dollars per gram. Be sure to avoid direct sunlight when storing!!! Storage time is 6 months. The cost is about 20 yuan.
