As the saying goes, beauty is everywhere. However, dark patches or acne can dull the glow of even the most beautiful face, making one hesitant to look in the mirror.
With the increased sweating and heat during summer, the natural moisture and radiance of facial skin can diminish. While many people invest in the latest creams and lotions, these often come with high prices and chemical ingredients, sometimes leaving the skin looking lacklustre.
Experts highlight that skin dryness worsens in summer, resulting in a loss of glow. Therefore, daily massage is crucial for maintaining skin health and hydration. You don’t need expensive, unfamiliar products to enhance your skin’s radiance. Several familiar products contain excellent ingredients that can restore luminosity and reduce dark spots effectively.
Regular Facial Massage
Regular facial massages help keep the skin moisturised and enhance its glow and elegance. This is why facial massages are an integral part of clean-ups and facials in beauty parlours.
Beauty parlours often use steam or vapour treatments, but you can easily replicate this at home with two simple ingredients and a gentle hand massage.
Factors Contributing To Dark Spots
According to facialist Catherine Mackenzie Patterson, several factors contribute to dark spots on the face, including
- salt and alcohol consumption,
- a sluggish lymphatic system,
- lack of sleep, and
- blood clotting.
These factors can heighten allergies, especially during the summer months and massage can be highly effective in addressing these issues. Massaging your face regularly will keep your skin hydrated and give you a healthier complexion.
Here are two beneficial ingredients for your face massage:
Coconut Oil Massage
To achieve soft and radiant skin, massage your face with coconut oil once a week. This will keep your skin hydrated and make your face glow visibly in just one night.
Warm the coconut oil slightly, apply it to your face, and massage gently for about 10 minutes. Clean your face with cotton afterwards. This practice will prevent your skin from drying out.
Aloe Vera Gel Massage
Aloe vera gel is excellent for facial skin. You can use fresh aloe vera gel for this purpose.
Extract the gel into a container, apply it all over your face, and massage gently for about 30 minutes. Leave it on your face for 10 minutes at night before rinsing with water. This will reduce itching and dark spots and keep your skin hydrated.
Important Considerations
- If you have any kind of allergy on your face, avoid massaging it.
- Always perform a patch test before applying anything to your face and consult a dermatologist if necessary.
- Always moisturise the skin after the massage.
Regular facial massage offers numerous benefits for the skin. By following this method, you can maintain your skin’s health at home.
