July 11th, 2011 >> Tightening Facial Treatment
This gentle skin tightening face treatment is popular in many spas throughout Asia. It helps to tighten the facial skin, while helping to moisturize the skin as well, preventing fine lines and wrinkles.
Things You’ll Need
2 Tablespoons of Collagen Powder or Cosmetic Clay Powder
1 Medium or Large Cucumber
1 Slice two thin slices of cucumber and place to the side.
2 Cut the rest of the cucumber into smaller chunks, then puree in a blender or food processor. Press the mixture through a cheesecloth, so that the juice is strained into a bowl.
3 Measure out a tablespoon of the juice, and place into a small mixing bowl.
4 Slowly sprinkle in the collagen powder, and stir the ingredients together gently as you do.
5 Once the mixture has become a thin paste, spread the skin tightening face treatment over the face, massaging it into the skin gently.
6 Place the cucumber slices over the eyes, and relax with the skin tightening face treatment applied, for about 20 minutes.
7 Use a soft towel or cloth, dampened with cool water, to gently wipe off the mask. Splash the face with cool water to get off any left on mask.
