The antioxidant properties in cucumbers can help prevent wrinkles. In addition, cucumbers also contain vitamin C and folic acid. Among them, vitamin C has the ability to stimulate the growth of new cells.
Cucumber masks cannot achieve immediate results after the first use. Therefore, to achieve the desired skincare effects, you need to maintain the habit of applying a mask 2-3 times a week. Massage helps the ingredients penetrate the pores and stimulate blood flow on the surface of the skin. The mask should be left on for 10 minutes to 15 minutes. After applying the mask, avoid washing your face with hot water.
