Again, warm greetings to all, beauties and handsome men!

With great joy, having described here my latest profitable and effective “therapeutic” discoveries in the matter of rejuvenation and improvement of facial skin condition, I decided to dwell in more detail on the most important components this process

So, if you decide to actively support your skin, erase as much as possible the signs of non-youth, fatigue, etc. from your beloved face, then Vitamin A (retinol) will help you. Yes, it is retinoids (their compounds, such as retinol acetate) - widely known and available in any pharmacy for literally pennies - that can work real magic!

Feel free and positive))) ask the pharmacist for vitamin A in an oil solution (as a rule, it is taken orally. But it is known that it is good internally, especially without harm to the surface of the skin). For approximately 50 rubles you will receive a 10 ml bottle. Start a restorative/rejuvenating/healing course. Add a couple of drops of this solution to your favorite cream or serum immediately before application. By the way, the oil solution helps preserve the properties of the vitamin, and is also very beneficial for the skin in itself; in my case, for example, it is rapeseed oil. Overall it looks like butter, discomfort doesn't cause any problems at all. Upon contact with the skin, retinol immediately has light effect smoothing due to an imperceptible flow of liquid to the application site. Internal recovery is a matter of several weeks. Well, for a greater overall effect, I recommend this magical and my favorite recipe .

What's so special about vitamin A? It activates renewal processes in tissues, gives energy and strength. In search of information about rejuvenation, I learned that all these super-actions of the vitamin were discovered while they were conducting research on combating pimples, blackheads, acne, etc. (by the way, retinol is also capable of this), and at the same time they began to treat age spots, sunburn and generally restore the skin. Can you imagine what a unique and at the same time simple, affordable drug!

Why do I insist on using it in this additional form, you ask? after all, many manufacturers already add it to their creams. YES, BUT! Retinoids are very capricious in relation to other drugs and storage conditions. In general, it is not a fact that you will receive it in your cream. In addition, vitamin A creams contain the bare minimum because they are a cosmetic product and not a pharmaceutical product. And to receive real effect we need to act more decisively!

It’s also no secret, I believe that vitamin A can and should be added to hair masks and used to strengthen nails. Add a few drops to your product and improve your regular cosmetics significantly.

If you want, like me, to receive positive result(and it won’t keep you waiting!) in improving the condition of facial skin with the help of retinol, remember very important things:
- be sure to store the vitamin in the refrigerator, in a dark place, at a temperature no higher than 10 degrees C
- avoid applying at night before going to bed, as there is some likelihood of tissue swelling (not at all critical and harmless, but we don’t need it)))) at least two hours in advance and do not forget to blot off the residue with a napkin
- do not use if you actively tan under the sun or in a solarium, because vitamin A makes the skin more susceptible to ultraviolet radiation (although, paradoxically, it heals already received burns and even preserves the tan!), or use an additional high SPF protection factor
- do not use constantly - this is a drug for a course of “treatment”, skin restoration, - take breaks
- before the first use, do an allergy test (which is quite rare, but still), apply a little solution in the ear area and observe for a day

Good luck to you and many interesting beauty discoveries!

Retinol, or true vitamin A, is a substance that is actively used in cosmetology. It is added to creams, masks, serums and other products.

For example, it can be found among product ingredients Nivea, BIOMATRIX, Klapp, BeautyMed. What is the benefit of retinol for facial skin, how to use it and what is the difference between acetate and palmitate?

Treatment with vitamin A is carried out in courses, each lasting no more than two months. Then they take the same break.

Adverse reactions and contraindications

After application to the skin, sometimes a burning or tingling sensation occurs, which passes quite quickly; dryness may appear after the procedure. The reason for this is the dehydrating effect of retinol. Therefore, after washing off the mask, it is recommended to apply a moisturizer.

One more thing side effect- increased skin sensitivity to ultraviolet radiation and the risk of allergic reactions. Because of this, preparations with vitamin A are best taken before bedtime, courses should be carried out in the autumn-winter period.

When used externally, itching and hyperemia may occur at the site of application. This requires a temporary discontinuation of the course.

Contraindication: individual hypersensitivity to the substance. You should not overuse the vitamin due to the risk of retinoid dermatitis. This is especially true for people with sensitive skin. It is not recommended to use the vitamin in its pure form to treat dryness and wrinkles.

You also need to remember that vitamin A loses its beneficial properties when heated, so the products to which the solution is added must be at room temperature.

Vitamin E, C, group B enhance the effect of the drug. But it is not recommended to combine it with fruit acids.

During pregnancy, retinol should not be used on large areas, because there is a risk of harming the unborn child.

Retinol release forms

The drug is available in several forms. Both pharmacy and cosmetic brands are involved in the production.

Acetate or palmitate?

Previously, retinol acetate was used only in veterinary medicine, and retinol palmitate was used in healthcare. Since the first form is cheaper to extract than the second, over time it became the main one.

However, there are differences in the mechanism of absorption. Thus, retinol palmitate is a natural compound for humans, and in this form it is absorbed faster and better. In order for the body to accept retinol acetate, the substance must undergo a series of transformations and be converted into acetate. For this reason, it is preferable to use retinol palmitate.

Retinol oil solution

The drug is available in a glass bottle of 10 ml. For skin lesions, the product is prescribed externally - the affected areas are treated and a gauze bandage is applied. Frequency of use: up to 6 times a day.

Retinol is also available in capsule form and is intended for internal use. However, it is also suitable for cosmetic purposes. To use the product, just pierce the capsule with a needle and squeeze out its contents.

Retinoic ointment

The drug is applied to the affected areas 2 times a day, used for a course of 4 to 12 weeks.

Cosmetic products

The ampoule form of the vitamin is produced by many manufacturers of cosmetics, including medicinal ones.

• Biomatrix- represents retinol enclosed in plant microspheres. This form allows the drug to quickly penetrate into the dermis.
• Klapp – Vitamin A plus Retinol considered one of the best means for the care of aging skin. The composition contains panthenol, which stimulates collagen formation and tissue regeneration.
• Ampoules with propolis and vitamin A- intended for the care of problem skin. The product contains irgazan and propolis. Both ingredients have antimicrobial effects.

Retinol is an excellent cosmetic product for all skin types. However, it is not always enough to use it only externally. The effectiveness of treatment will increase if vitamin A is taken orally. As is known, dermatological diseases- the result of incorrect operation internal organs and systems. But you can’t self-medicate - you need to get a doctor’s permission.

Before writing about how to use vitamin e and a for the skin of the face and hands, we must remember what foods these vitamins are found in. So, they are found in rosehip and sea buckthorn oils, in cereals and eggs, in rowan fruits, in almonds and peanuts, in avocado, in milk, in liver, in legumes, in cherries, in Brussels sprouts, in seeds, in pumpkin, in green vegetable leaves, contains it and is fatty sea ​​fish. Vitamin E is one of the most important. Otherwise it is called tocopherol. It is an antioxidant, actively counteracts oxidative processes in tissues, fights free radicals, and strengthens cell membranes.

Full name vitamin A – retinol, also known as “growth vitamin”, responsible for the birth of new cells, sight, skin, mucous membranes, effectively fights diseases. It is always important to remember that when getting vitamins from food, we practically cannot get them in excess, which cannot be said about dosage forms, purchased by us at the pharmacy. It is necessary to strictly follow the instructions and not to overdo it with dosages, so that the vitamins do not give a dangerous and even the opposite effect to what we expect from them.

Speaking of finances... Not all the funds we need need to be purchased at the pharmacy. You can prepare many remedies yourself. So on the site a long time ago it was written about how to make sea buckthorn oil at home. If you find this publication, which is literally no more than a couple of paragraphs in length, you will realize that this is not a problem and will seriously reduce your costs. You can ask summer residents for sea buckthorn berries. Someone will give it just like that... Well, butter can be found in any kitchen...

Of course, in order to take care of the skin of the face, there are many creams, but they are not always suitable for your particular skin. skin hands, do not always give the expected effect. That’s why we need recipes for homemade masks, suitable for use on the face, hands and body in general. In some cases you will use them, and in others you will use ready-made ones pharmaceutical products.

Using vitamins for your beauty

Take a tablespoon of sour cream, add to it a tablespoon of crushed into powder oatmeal, add 2 drops liquid vitamins a and e and mix thoroughly. Apply the resulting mixture to the face, hands (it is also suitable for knees, heels and elbows) and leave for a third of an hour. Then we wash it off cold water.

A similar recipe can be used after a bath or after scrubbing the body. Take a tablespoon of sour cream, a tablespoon of oatmeal or bran powder, 5 drops of vitamin a and e, and 1 yolk. We also apply the mask, lightly rubbing it onto the skin of the face, hands and body for a third of an hour, but afterward you need to wash with cold water.

There is another super-mask, and it can be applied to the hair, which significantly improves its structure when used regularly (2 times every 7-10 days). This is a real vitamin cocktail! Mix a tablespoon of kefir with a fat content of 2.5 - 3 percent, 5 drops of retinol and 5 drops of tocopherol with 5 g of honey and 15 g of rosehip decoction. You can also add 15 g of dry cocoa. It softens hair very well and gives it elasticity. To apply this cocktail to your hair, divide it into partings and rub in. We apply to the body, hands and face thin layer. After 20 minutes, rinse with pleasantly warm water.

Vitamin E and A for the face

The best effect is achieved if vitamins are used internally and externally. Vitamins e and a for facial skin are always an excellent addition to existing creams and masks that we purchase, hoping to preserve our beauty and youth or return the skin to its former toned appearance. One has only to remember what benefits Mother Nature gives us in the form of carrots, pumpkins, apples, and cucumbers. Let's remember the beneficial properties of cucumbers, apples, pumpkins... These products are an excellent base for masks that we can make at home.

Face mask (vitamin a and e)

The pulp of pumpkin, apple or carrot, and if you wish, mix everything at once with 5 drops of tocopherol and retinol. Apply to the face and leave for 15 minutes. Gently cleanse the skin of the face boiled water so as not to dry it out with chlorinated tap water. You can also cleanse your skin by special means for washing, they are designed so that they do not dry out the skin.

Vitamin A and E for lips

Do not forget that vitamins in their pure form - straight from the ampoule - can be harmful. Therefore, it is necessary to dilute the concentration somewhat. To do this, always mix the chosen vitamin with some kind of cream that will serve as a base, or with sour cream, cream, yogurt, or anything that can serve as a base.

Vitamin A and E for eyelids

The eyelids are as delicate as the lips. The skin of the eyelids thins with age. To restore her beauty and youth, we must vitaminize her. Vitamins a and e will help us with this. We already know that it is better to dilute vitamins from ampoules, so we will combine unrefined sunflower oil(teaspoon) or any base oil, 5 g glycerin and 5 drops liquid retinol and tocopherol. We apply this mixture to our eyelids, and also don’t forget about crow’s feet (wrinkles) around the eyes and smile at ourselves while looking in the mirror. Thus, we will see all the facial wrinkles that we so want to get rid of. So we apply our mixture to all these wrinkles. One of the properties of glycerin is to retain moisture. It has a very good effect on skin saturation. This way it smoothes out, becomes velvety and tender. This external effect, this is what we are striving for in principle, but treatment from the inside is necessary so that the vitamins penetrate into every cell. It is believed that vitamins are absorbed by the body only through the gastrointestinal tract. Our body needs organic vitamin and microelement formulas. Special well-balanced vitamin complexes are sold in pharmacies and are inexpensive. So consult your pharmacist about the dosage, frequency of use of vitamins and seasonality.

Vitamin a and e for hands

Hands are a kind of business card, and, of course, I would like them to look impeccable. Don't want to buy vitamin complexes at the pharmacy, oh well - change your diet to proper nutrition and the body will take its toll from food. The condition of your nails will tell you about this most likely in a month.

Tocopherol is extremely important for nails, as retinol is less absorbed. Both vitamins are fat-soluble; fats are essential in the diet, even if you are on a diet. It is the lack of fat that affects the condition of the nails and other body systems as a whole. We have previously discussed which foods contain vitamin E. Eat for your health!

To make your hands look fresh, lubricate them with a mix of any vegetable oil and one egg. It is not necessary to separate the yolk or white - take it all!

You can mix a tablespoon of honey with the yolk of an egg - this mask is applied to your hands and rubbed in, rubbed in, rubbed in!

Aloe juice is very useful, but many people have a persistent allergy to it.

You can grate the carrots on a fine grater - this will give more juice. Add olive or other vegetable oil. Massage your brushes. Softening your skin is guaranteed.

Raspberries, strawberries and even gooseberry pulp mixed separately or together with sour cream, kefir, yogurt are excellent moisturizers for your skin. To each of the proposed masks we add 1-5 drops of tocopherol and retinol and the results will not keep you waiting!
