What are the beauty benefits of potatoes?

Potatoes are a particularly useful food. Not only can they be cooked in many ways in our diet, but they are also very nutritious. Potatoes can be cooked as vegetables or as a staple food, and there are also many different foods made from potatoes. Potatoes play a particularly important role in our lives. In fact, potatoes can also be used for beauty. Let us learn about the wonderful beauty uses of potatoes.

1. Can eliminate dark circles

Potatoes can absorb excess body heat, eliminate the feeling of heat in the skin, stabilize the hot skin, and at the same time expel waste accumulated in the pores, remove brown spots, and make the skin more beautiful. It is especially suitable for people who sweat easily and often have small pimples on their faces. Cut a fresh potato into thin slices, wipe your face carefully with a hot towel, then lie on your back and apply the potato slices to your face one by one. For areas that are difficult to stick to, such as the nose, you can cut a potato into half slices and stick it there. Keep it on for about 10 minutes, then wipe your face clean with a hot towel. If you insist on doing the potato beauty method once a day, it can make your skin softer and smoother, prevent dirt from accumulating in the pores, and make your skin look brand new.

2. In dry weather, in addition to drinking more water, making a potato mask once a week is also a good way to hydrate your skin.

The large amount of starch contained in potatoes can absorb the oil from the facial skin, which is especially suitable for people with oily skin. Generally, it can be done once a week. If you add a little honey and lemon juice to the mask, it will be more effective in moisturizing the skin.

3. Whether you use raw or cooked potatoes as a facial mask, it can have a good beauty effect

Applying fresh potato juice directly to the face not only has a significant whitening effect, but also helps cleanse the skin, relieve spots, and prevent acne without any side effects. If you want to reduce eye puffiness, stretch the skin and make your entire face smoother, you can also mix a spoonful of potato flour with half a raw egg yolk, and then apply it for 20 minutes.

4. Cooked potato mask is more suitable for people with sensitive skin

Steam the potatoes and mash them into a paste. Add a small amount of milk and mix well. After cooling, apply on your face for 15 minutes. If you have oily skin, you can peel and mash the cooked potatoes, add a small amount of oatmeal powder, mix them and apply them on your face for 15 minutes, then wash it off with warm water. If you want to make dry skin soft and elastic, add a spoonful of yogurt to mashed potatoes, apply it on your face for 15 minutes, and then wash it off with warm water at 40~50℃.
