How to store the product
The anti-aging mask for the face is made of highly perishable natural ingredients such as kiwi and yogurt. Honey, argan oil and orange blossom essence invence a higher degree of preservation, thanks to the absence of water or the presence of sugary substances. Therefore, we advise you to prepare the mask for the anti-aging face and apply it within a few hours and, in case you do not use it immediately, put the container tightly closed in the refrigerator.
The best solution is to prepare this recipe and apply it immediately on the face, so as to fully benefit from all the extraordinary anti-aging and nourishing properties of the ingredients.
How to use the anti-aging mask
This facial beauty treatment can be done once a week for a period of about two months and then repeated after an interval of three or four months. In this way, you will do a couple of cycles per year useful for regenerating and stimulating the skin, perhaps alternating different types of anti-aging treatments.
Once the anti-aging mask has been prepared for the face, apply it with the help of a brush over the entire skin, paying close attention to the very delicate area around the eyes. Leave it in place for about 20 minutes and then remove the product residues with the help of a damp sponge.
Soon after, we recommend applying a layer of anti-aging moisturizer. This treatment should be done in the evening, in this way the skin will have time during the night to regenerate. In addition, neroli oil (orange blossom) can increase the photo sensitivity of the skin and it is good not to expose yourself to the sun or the lamps after its use on the skin.
