 When they go on a diet, women dream of their slender figure and sleek, toned silhouette. As a result, along with slimness, they often get wrinkles and sagging skin, especially with a sharp weight loss. Therefore, body care while losing weight is extremely important. To avoid sagging skin in problem areas (on the stomach, inner thighs, arms, face and neck), it is advisable to adhere to the following recommendations regarding the process of losing weight.
• Lose weight slowly: lose less than 1 kg per month.
• Do not exclude protein foods from the diet.
• Do not give up eating fat, in particular fish, vegetable oil, nuts.
• Make regular exercise a habit.
• Drink at least one and a half liters of clean water a day.
• Do not neglect vitamin and mineral complexes.
As for directly caring for the body while losing weight, here you can recommend such procedures and manipulations.
1.Cold and hot shower. This water treatment, which involves alternating dousing with cold and hot water, perfectly tightens the skin by stimulating blood circulation in it.
2.Baths perfectly increase skin turgor with sea salt, which should be taken 1-2 times a week for 20 minutes. In addition to salt, you can add a few drops of any citrus essential oil (orange, grapefruit, tangerine) to the water.
3.Peeling with a scrub. Scrubbing makes the skin smooth, renews it, as well as activates blood circulation and prepares the skin for the effects of other agents (creams, gels, oils). At home, you can make an excellent scrub from coffee grounds and liquid soap (shower gel), which you need to massage problem areas during the shower.
4.After taking a shower and using a scrub, moisturize your skin with a cream, oil or gel. It is better if the listed funds have a tightening or anti-cellulite effect. A firming cream can be prepared from regular baby cream or moisturizer by adding powdered mummy to it. And anti-cellulite oil can be obtained from ordinary olive oil by adding a few drops of essential oils of orange, clove, rosemary and lavender to it.
5.Visibly improves skin condition massage... It is better if it is carried out by a qualified specialist, but, as a last resort, you can do self-massage, for example, rub yourself with a stiff brush or rub in cream using special massagers.
6.Wraps. These are very effective treatments that not only make the skin firmer, but also help burn subcutaneous fat. There are many wraps. The mixture for them can be purchased in specialized stores, or you can make it yourself. A good result is given by a chocolate wrap, the skin after it is very delicate, smooth and fragrant. For the procedure, you will need dark chocolate, which needs to be melted to a semi-liquid consistency and after a shower with scrubbing, apply to problem areas of the skin. Then you need to wrap yourself with cling film for 20-30 minutes and lie down quietly, then rinse the chocolate off your skin.
A wrap made of seaweed (kelp) and blue clay has proven itself excellent. Pour dry kelp with a small amount of warm water and wait until it swells, and then mix it with clay, adding water to the mixture if necessary to get a creamy mass. Insist the mixture for half an hour and apply to problem areas in the same way as in the case of a chocolate wrap.
7.And finally, to prevent sagging of the skin on the face, you need to apply a mask that tightens the skin and increases blood circulation 2 times a week. At home, you can prepare such a honey mask: mix a tablespoon of honey with a teaspoon of salt, apply on the face, patting the skin with your fingertips, leave for 10 minutes, then rinse.
There are many more recipes for masks, creams and wraps, ready-made cosmetic preparations, as well as home and salon procedures designed to make the skin elastic and toned. However, the desired result can be obtained only on condition of their systematic use and regular body care while losing weight.
