Cactus mask, a natural repairer

Nowadays, facial masks are very common in our lives and are a category of skin care products. Its most basic and important purpose is to make up for the insufficient cleaning work of makeup removal and face washing, and on this basis to achieve other maintenance functions, such as hydrating, whitening, anti-aging and so on. So, how to make cactus mask?

I baked three pans in a row. Although it was troublesome, it was enough as long as my parents liked them.

The pulp of the cactus has the effects of anti-inflammatory, detoxification and promoting cell growth. It can be used as a facial mask, but it is best to use edible cactus. The ones we usually grow have too many thorns and are not easy to remove. In the past, there were thornless ones for sale in shopping malls, but now there are fewer.

It is too difficult to make a facial mask with cactus. It cannot be done without special extraction tools. You can peel the cactus, mash it into paste, apply it on your face for 20-30 minutes and then wash it off with warm water.

Cactus is rich in protein, vitamins, carotene, more than 10 kinds of minerals and 18 kinds of amino acids. Almost all the amino acids necessary for the human body are included in it. It also contains organic acids, sugars, flavonoids, bioalkaloids, sterols, terpenes and other chemical components with strong pharmacological effects. Cactus has a strong ability to scavenge free radicals and resist aging. Cactus polysaccharides have the obvious effect of lowering blood sugar and enhancing immune function. Promote the phagocytic function of the mononuclear macrophage system, enhance self-protection and anti-radiation functions and effects. Cactus contains triterpenoid saponins, which are essential substances needed by the human body. They can directly regulate the body's secretory function and the activity of lipase, promote the rapid decomposition of excess fat to normal, and effectively prevent fat absorption in the intestines. Inhibit fat synthesis in the liver, fight against the deposition of cholesterol and the inner walls of blood vessels, and gradually reduce weight. It does not damage the vitality, but replenishes nutrition and increases human energy.

Cactus has the effects of clearing heat, detoxifying, moisturizing and sun protection.

It is too difficult to make a facial mask with cactus. You cannot do it without special extraction tools. You’d better buy ready-made ones, such as the Xiangyi cactus facial mask, which is good for moisturizing and anti-radiation. If you really want to DIY, then another way is to buy cactus extract and prepare it yourself. Of course, this also requires you to have some knowledge of raw materials. I like to buy raw materials and make skin care products myself, including facial cleansers, makeup removers, essences and creams. I can make them myself.

I think everyone knows how to make the cactus mask above. Don't just listen to a whitening product and think that your skin is already white enough and you don't need to whiten it anymore. It is better to make your own facial mask as it will not cause allergies and is more hygienic. The quality of your own work is generally more guaranteed, so you might as well give it a try!
