Classification of peelings for facial skin and top best products for use in the salon and at home

Peeling facial skin: treatment at home ↑

Why the skin on the face peels is a question that any woman who faces a similar problem asks herself. Dry areas on the surface of the skin not only make it less attractive, but also create the preconditions for the formation of wrinkles - as you know, dehydrated dermis cannot produce enough elastin and collagen, and therefore quickly loses its elasticity.

What to do in this situation? First of all, it is necessary to find out the reason for the dehydration of the upper layer of the epidermis - why your skin suddenly became dry. In winter, the flaky dermis most of all needs nutrition and vitamin complexes. Fat and rich creams, masks that restore water balance, homemade scrubs and peelings are suitable for this. It also wouldn’t hurt to introduce vitamin complexes containing group B substances into your diet – they are the ones responsible for the condition and beauty of our skin. A humidifier will help soften the dermis of the face during the heating season - it is better to place it closer to the bed and turn it on during night sleep.

Both commercial cosmetic products and folk recipes help against skin flaking, or you can use both to achieve a better effect. But first you need to eliminate the cause of excessive dryness - without this, the problem will return again. It often happens that the peeling off of particles is caused by excessive use of the sun and tanning, frequent trips to the pool, which contains water treated with chemicals, windy weather, lack of vitamins, or even an incorrectly selected cleanser.

A cream for flaky facial skin must be chosen wisely and have a nourishing structure - gels and light balms are not suitable because they quickly dry out on the surface, which can lead to increased peeling. Also, take a shower and perform daily hygiene procedures with caution - dehydrated skin does not tolerate aggressive detergents and the use of soap.

And, of course, the most important thing is to get rid of the accumulation of dead cells that the epidermis rejects in order to even out the texture of the skin and make it smooth and fresh. Recipes for scrubs that are very easy to make at home with your own hands will help with this.

What to look for when choosing

When purchasing one of the presented products, you need to pay attention to the following points:

• Skin type. For normal skin, a scrub with small abrasive particles is suitable, as they will only maintain the condition of such skin. Dry, thin and flaky skin will benefit from a cream foundation, as it does not injure the delicate areas of the face. To care for sensitive skin, you will need natural-based products with soft abrasive particles, since this type of skin is most prone to allergies. A scrub with large abrasive particles will do a great job on oily dermis. This product absorbs increased sebum secretion more than any other.
• Aroma. You should not buy a product with a strong smell, as after using it, your health may deteriorate after some time.

Scrub recipes for home use ↑

Are you looking for an affordable way to improve your skin? You don't have to spend a fortune on spas or expensive beauty products to reap the benefits of exfoliation. Here are some simple instructions for creating homemade exfoliating remedies that can be quite effective.

Homemade peelings are convenient because you can get exfoliant particles right in your kitchen. Salt, sugar and oatmeal have granules, making them ideal for removing dead skin layers. But before you make the scrub, check all the ingredients to make sure there are no sharp objects. The main goal of such recipes is to gently cleanse the skin and not scratch it. Overly aggressive exfoliation with a large or sharp exfoliant can lead to skin irritation!

An important note about at-home exfoliation: While scrubbing can be a great addition to your basic self-care routine, there are also times when you shouldn't use it. For example, if you have an allergic or bacterial skin rash or other skin condition. In addition, you should not exfoliate skin that has fresh abrasions, cuts, or recent tanning.

Oatmeal scrub against flaking on the face ↑

Sometimes a simple recipe is the best. Oatmeal is a valuable source of B vitamins, and therefore it not only gently cleanses the top layer of skin, making the face smooth and soft, but also revives aging skin deprived of nutrients.

Recipe:

1. 2 teaspoons ground oatmeal;
2. 1 teaspoon of soda.

Mix ground oats with baking soda. Mix, adding a little water - just a couple of drops - to form a thick paste. Apply the resulting mixture to your face, gently rubbing in circular motions. Rinse the skin with cool water and blot with a clean towel.

Sweet face scrub ↑

Do you want to not only get rid of flaking and make your face radiant and soft, but also pamper yourself? Try this recipe in true spa style!

Recipe:

1. 2 tablespoons finely chopped oatmeal;
2. 2 tablespoons granulated sugar;
3. 2 tablespoons brown sugar;
4. 1/2 cup vegetable or almond oil (almond is better);
5. 1 teaspoon nutmeg.

Mix all ingredients. Mix well. Apply to damp face, lightly rubbing the scrub into the skin. Rinse your face with warm and then cool water, then dry your skin with a clean towel and apply your usual moisturizer.

Remember - when you plan to exfoliate your skin, you must take extra care to avoid scratching or irritating it. Sudden movements and deep rubbing of particles into the epidermis are unacceptable!

Body and face scrub ↑

If you have peeling skin not only on your face, but also on your body, then it won’t hurt to tidy it up by making a fragrant scrub based on ordinary sugar. Fine granulated granulated sugar is perfect for gentle yet effective exfoliation!

Recipe:

1. 1 cup granulated sugar;
2. 1/2 cup butter (almond oil is best);
3. 10 drops of any essential oil.

Mix sugar and butter until completely combined. Add 10-15 drops of essential oil for fragrance if desired. Orange and lemon oils are perfect - these oils perfectly nourish the skin and restore its softness and beauty.

Apply the mixture to damp skin with your hands, a washcloth, sponge or hard glove, gently rubbing in a circular motion. Rinse well. After use, apply milk or light body balm to damp skin.

Salt body scrub ↑

Like the sugar scrub above, this salt scrub is suitable for the body but should not be used on the face. Salt is an excellent assistant in the fight for elastic and smooth skin without flaking, but for facial skin this method is quite aggressive, and therefore sugar granules are usually used instead of salt.

Recipe:

1. 1/2 cup (sea salt is best);
2. 1/2 cup vegetable oil (preferably almonds);
3. Fragrance if necessary.

Mix salt and vegetable oil until completely combined. Add 10-15 drops of essential oil if you want to add aroma to the scrub (you can use kritsa oil, cocoa). Apply the mixture to damp skin with your hands, a washcloth, sponge or glove, gently rubbing in a circular motion. Then rinse well.

Soda scrub for face and body ↑

Baking soda is a mild abrasive that can be used for exfoliation. It's also a very affordable ingredient, perfect for budget beauty lovers.

Recipe:

1. Baking soda;
2. Purified water;
3. Essential oil if desired.

Mix a small amount (1-3 teaspoons for face and 1-3 tablespoons for body) with enough water so that the mixture can be easily applied to the skin. Add a drop or two of essential oil if desired. Apply the scrub to the skin with a glove or sponge, gently massaging in circular motions. Rinse off the mixture with warm water.

10Bull of Phalaris

The bull of Phalaris, also known as the copper bull, is an ancient execution weapon invented by Perilius of Athens in the 6th century BC. The design was a huge copper bull, hollow inside, with a door on the back or side. It had enough space to accommodate a person. The executed person was placed inside, the door was closed, and a fire was lit under the belly of the statue. There were holes in the head and nostrils that made it possible to hear the screams of the person inside, which sounded like the growling of a bull.

It is interesting that the creator of the copper bull himself, Perilaus, was the first to test the device in action on the orders of the tyrant Phalaris. Perilai was pulled out of the bull while still alive, and then thrown off the cliff. Phalaris himself also suffered the same fate - death in a bull.

Classification by degree of impact

Depending on the strength of the action on the dermis, peeling is divided into types:

Surface

The upper dead cells are removed. The rejuvenation of the tissue begins, it becomes more even and smooth.

Median

Acts on the deep layers of the epidermis. Post-acne, stretch marks and other similar damage are eliminated. The recovery will not be long.

Deep

The most aggressive and effective method, it creates a powerful lifting. It is advisable not to resort to this method without indications, because the epidermis is removed. And rehabilitation will take about six months.

1Sawing

The person sentenced to this execution was hung upside down and sawed vertically in the middle of the body, starting from the groin.
Since the body was upside down, the criminal’s brain had a constant flow of blood, which, despite the large blood loss, allowed him to remain conscious for a long time. Similar executions were used in the Middle East, Europe and parts of Asia. It is believed that sawing was the favorite method of execution of the Roman Emperor Caligula. In the Asian version of this execution, the person was sawed from the head.

9Hanging, drawing and quartering

Hanging, drawing and quartering is a method of execution common in England for treason, which was once considered the most terrible crime. It applied only to men. If a woman was convicted of high treason, she was burned alive. Incredibly, this method was legal and relevant until 1814.

First of all, the convict was tied to a horse-drawn wooden sled and dragged to the place of death. The criminal was then hanged and, just moments before death, taken out of the noose and placed on the table. After this, the executioner castrated and disembowelled the victim, burning the insides in front of the condemned man. Finally, the victim's head was cut off and the body was divided into four parts. The English official Samuel Pepys, having witnessed one of these executions, described it in his famous diary:

“In the morning I met Captain Cuttance, then I went to Charing Cross, where I saw Major General Harrison hanged, drawn and quartered. He tried to look as cheerful as possible in this situation. He was removed from the noose, then his head was cut off and his heart was taken out, showing to the crowd, which caused everyone to rejoice. Previously he judged, but now he was judged.”

Usually all five parts of the executed were sent to different parts of the country, where they were demonstratively installed on the gallows as a warning to others.

6Wheeling

The wheel, also known as Catherine's Wheel, is a medieval execution device. A man was tied to a wheel. After which they broke all the large bones of the body with an iron hammer and left them to die. The wheel was placed on the top of the pillar, giving the birds the opportunity to profit from the sometimes still living body. This could continue for several days until the person died from painful shock or dehydration. In France, some relaxations in execution were provided when the convict was strangled before the execution.
