Sometimes you don’t need to go far or spend much to show your skin some TLC. Your kitchen is full of a number of natural anti-aging beauty remedies to help keep your skin looking young and tender (or just young). I am a big fan of natural anti-aging beauty remedies and I use them quite often. This is because most of the times, you don’t have any side-effects or downtime (not unless you are allergic to something).

So in today’s post, I am going to give you a (short) list of natural anti-aging beauty remedies, which you can achieve without breaking a sweat. On the other hand, even if you break that sweat, at least you will be in the comfort of your own home.

In addition, don’t forget most anti-aging experts always insist that you don’t need a lot to keep your skin in tip-top shape. This so-called top shape includes delaying the aging process aka wrinkles and fine lines. And most of us usually aim for smooth and soft skin!

Natural anti-aging beauty remedies

Extra-virgin Olive oil

Olive oil is one of the best go-to natural anti-aging beauty and skin remedies. And it works both from the inside and outside. As for me, I use olive oil on everything, from cooking to whipping it with my raw Shea butter. To say the least, it really works. This oil is rich in minerals, vitamins, natural fatty acids, and powerful anti-oxidants. It is readily absorbed by the skin, and in addition to keeping it hydrated, it reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Bananas

Who would have thought? I love bananas but I can go a month without eating a single one. Bananas also fall under the list of natural anti-aging beauty remedies because they are loaded with Vitamins B, C, E, and potassium. If you apply mashed banana on your skin, not only will the skin be hydrated, but the elasticity will be improved and collagen production boosted. Don’t stay with the paste for too long though; 30 minutes is enough. After washing off, you will notice a healthier-looking and glowing skin. Go bananas! Look at this awesome banana pancake recipe.

Avocados

There is no limit to the beauty of avocados. I love them and most of you do. They are great for weight loss and your health in general. In addition, you can use their creamy flesh to improve and beautify your skin. Avocados moisturize extra-dry skin as well as promote the regeneration of new skin cells by repairing damaged ones. This leaves your skin looking younger and radiant. Avocados are full of folate, selenium, beta-carotene, zinc, potassium, anti-oxidants, vitamins and amino acids. All these nutrients are great for the health of your skin.

Ginger

What places ginger as one of the best but an unknown natural anti-aging beauty remedies is its high amounts of anti-oxidants. If used on the skin, it can help stop the breakdown of elastin and collagen, which we all know is the reason for wrinkles. You can use it in powder form or fresh but crushed form. Just mix it with a bit of honey and apply it on your skin. Rinse after 20 minutes then moisturize.

Eggs (egg whites)

When applied directly to the skin as a mask, eggs hydrate, moisturize and repair skin cells damaged by free radicals. This natural anti-aging beauty remedy, which you find right in your fridge will reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles as well as reduce the size of your skin pores. After rinsing, you will notice a smoother and younger-looking skin!

As I always say, all our skins are different and whatever natural anti-aging beauty remedies that might work for Sara might not work for Nancy. So just keep on trying and see what works for your skin.

Also, if your skin is already showing some serious signs of aging, the best advice would be to seek something in the form of non-invasive skin treatment from your trusted medical aesthetician. Sometimes natural anti-aging beauty remedies might drive you bananas if they do not work fast. Just remember, patience pays.
