An ingredient such as red pepper should be used in very small doses and only if there is no damage to the skin. The period for which the mask is applied is 5-10, maximum 15 minutes. A slight burning sensation is acceptable, but you should never endure severe discomfort.

Here are some interesting recipes for warming masks based on red pepper:

which dermatologists recommend:

1. Take one tablespoon of beeswax; the same amount of olive oil, a quarter of a red capsicum and one teaspoon of butter or full-fat cottage cheese. The pepper needs to be washed and cleared of seeds, then grind it into a paste using a food processor, blender or knife. Mix the gruel with olive oil. Melt the wax in a steam bath, add oil into it, mix all the components of the mask.
2. Take a quarter of red pepper, washed and de-seeded, crushed into a paste. Dilute the mixture with one tablespoon of cabbage juice and one tablespoon of carrot juice (not store-bought).
3. You need to take the following ingredients - one teaspoon of chopped red pepper; two tablespoons of chopped bell pepper; one teaspoon of homemade fat sour cream and one chicken egg. Mix all components until smooth.
4. You need to take the same mixture of peppers as indicated in the previous recipe, add one tablespoon of milk and vegetable oil to the gruel.
5. You need to take two tablespoons of cosmetic clay; a few drops of hot pepper tincture; a little oatmeal flour; two teaspoons of liquid honey. Mix all these components, then heat the milk a little and pour it into the mass, little by little, stirring constantly. As soon as the mixture acquires a comfortable consistency of thick sour cream, the mask can be considered ready.
6. For this recipe you will need one or two drops of pepper tincture, one egg and one tablespoon of country sour cream. Mix all ingredients and apply to face with a cosmetic brush.
7. Take a small piece of red pepper, grind it into a paste, after removing the seeds. Add flaxseed oil to the mixture - a tablespoon. Take beeswax, melt 2 teaspoons in a water bath, cool slightly and mix with the previously prepared mixture of pepper and butter.
8. Take one teaspoon of dry red hot pepper, mix with a tablespoon of fat sour cream and one yolk and a medium-sized raw potato grated on a fine grater. Before applying the mask, you need to apply shea butter or coconut, almond, or, in extreme cases, olive or sunflower butter to your face using a cosmetic brush.
9. Before using such masks, you need to keep in mind that red pepper is a hot product. Even a small amount of it in a cosmetic preparation can lead to redness of the skin. But if you did everything correctly and did not overexpose the mixture on your face, the redness should go away fairly quickly.
10. Not only a mask based on red pepper, but also a homemade tonic will help to activate metabolic and regenerative processes in the skin of the face. The product can be used every day by applying tonic to a cotton pad and wiping your face with it before going to bed.

The tonic contains the following components:

1. 200 milliliters of mineral water. You can use regular drinking mineral water, shaking the bottle first and leaving it for six to eight hours to allow the gas to come out.
2. 10 milliliters of peach (or any other cosmetic aromatic oil, except mint, lemon, spruce, etc.).
3. 7 drops of red hot pepper tincture.

All this needs to be mixed well and poured into a used cosmetic bottle with a dispenser or sprayer. Before using the drug, you need to shake it thoroughly each time to mix back the separated tonic.

• premature aging;
• the appearance of “black spots”, acne;
• peeling;
• loss of facial contour;

3. Due to the impact warm effect in the bathhouse, sauna.
4. Scrubs that don't always help.

One of the simple, economical, reliable methods before cleansing is to steam your face at home using a mask.

What are the benefits of warming face masks?

Warming masks are very popular because they have a wide range of actions:

1. Due to the fact that the surface temperature of the skin increases, metabolic processes are normalized in the layers of the epidermis and in the subcutaneous fatty tissue.
2. Local microcirculation is activated, blood circulation and tissue trophism are improved, oxygen better saturates the skin.
3. Impurities, toxins, and decay products are removed from the skin more effectively and quickly.
4. The activity of the sebaceous glands is normalized.
5. The moisture content of the skin is normalized and the skin begins to retain moisture better.
6. The lack of vitamins, minerals, and other nutritional biologically active substances important for the epidermis is compensated.
7. Many components of warming masks have antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties, so the cosmetic procedure will help heal minor damage to the epidermis. The warmth of the warming mask has a tonic effect on the skin, thanks to which the skin’s self-healing processes are launched. The production of elastin and collagen is stimulated, we can say that this drug rejuvenates the skin of the face.
8. In addition, the warm composition of the warming mask is absorbed by tissues much more effectively than cold preparations. It is for this reason that the result will be noticeable after the first procedure.

Effect after using warming face masks:

1. The skin becomes velvety, soft, smooth and silky, looking refreshed.
2. The elasticity and turgor of the skin are restored.
3. Small wrinkles are smoothed out, large, deep wrinkles become less pronounced.
4. The normal complexion is restored, yellowness and greenishness disappear.
5. The severity of bags and bruises under the eyes is reduced.
6. The pores on the face are cleansed and narrowed.
7. Peeling or increased oiliness of the skin disappears.

How the steaming mask works

Due to pollution and blockage of pores, the epidermal tissues are not sufficiently saturated with oxygen, dry out, and age faster. Clogged pores become a source of inflammatory formations. Steaming masks help unclog pores.

These products contain components that create a warming effect, due to which blood flows into the tissue, pores expand, and cellular renewal processes accelerate. Warming components can be plant extracts and oils, mineral elements, and substances of chemical origin.

The purpose of a steaming mask is to make the subsequent action of the cleanser more effective by expanding the pores. Also this composition:

• draws out toxins;
• eliminates comedones;
• tones the epidermis;
• evens out skin tone;
• refreshes;
• stretches facial folds.

Note! You can use a steaming mask for any skin type.

How to prepare warming face masks at home

Warming masks are always prepared immediately before application to the face. You should not reuse any leftover mixture, even if you stored it in the refrigerator. Within a few hours after production, the nutritional mixture will begin to lose its beneficial properties. And the need to warm up the mask can negatively affect the quality of the drug.

Always use fresh and high-quality products to prepare a mask. Here are some tips to help you perform a cosmetic procedure at home.

1. Medicinal herbs can be bought at the pharmacy; one package will be enough for several dozen procedures.
2. It is better to buy products such as honey, milk, eggs at the farmers market. Homemade products must be tested in a laboratory; before purchasing, ask the seller for a corresponding certificate.
3. If the recipe indicates that you will need vegetable oil, then you can use any kind. If only sunflower oil is available, that will do. But it is better to use olive, grape or almond seed oil, or flaxseed oil.
4. If the recipe calls for oatmeal, you can use it as is or pre-grind it with a coffee grinder or food processor.

If the mask is too runny and runs off your face, you can soak a cotton napkin with slits for the eyes and mouth in it and make a fabric mask. During one procedure, you will need to wet the fabric in the heated mixture 5-7 times, as it will cool very quickly on the surface of the face. However, the mixture can be thickened. To do this, you can use any flour, black bread crumb, starch, or the same ground oatmeal. If, on the contrary, the mass is too dense and does not apply well to the skin, dilute it with warm milk and stir thoroughly.

How to prepare for applying a warming mask and carry out the procedure correctly

When you make cold masks, you probably prepare your skin for each procedure. Most likely, you steam your face over a boiling decoction of medicinal herbs or use a warm compress. And after that you do scrubbing so that the skin is more receptive to the medicinal effects of the mask components. In our case, when a drug that warms the skin is used, the preparation will take place a little differently. There is no need to steam the skin. On the contrary, a strong increase in the temperature of the epidermis can negatively affect its condition. There is also no need to carry out preliminary peeling; you can accidentally damage the skin and making a warming mask will not be comfortable. It is enough just to thoroughly clean the epidermis of impurities and decorative cosmetics. You can use special milk, and then clean boiled water at room temperature.

How to use a warming mask:

1. The mixture is prepared (according to one of the home recipes) or the packaging of a ready-made purchased drug is opened. Make sure that the temperature of the product is optimal. The mixture should be hot, but not so hot that it burns the delicate skin of your face. To determine that you have not made a mistake with the temperature, apply a little nourishing mass to the skin on your wrist. If the mask is hot, let it cool slightly; if it is not warm enough, heat it in a water bath.
2. First, the composition is applied to the forehead, then the mixture is distributed along massage lines over the entire area of ​​the face, with the exception of the lips, eyelids, and the area under the eyes. To enhance the warming effect, cover your face with a clean, dry towel or cling film, leaving holes for the eyes, nose, and mouth.
3. You need to take a comfortable horizontal position and relax.
4. After the recommended time, you need to wash off the mask with warm water or an aqueous infusion of medicinal herbs.
5. At the very end, you can gently pat your skin with a warm terry towel and apply a moisturizing, nourishing cream, which is used for daily or night facial skin care.

In most cases, the mask is applied for 15 minutes. Unless the recipe specifies a different time, leave the drug on the skin for no more than 20-25 minutes. If during the procedure you experience any discomfort, burning, pain, the mask should be washed off immediately. If these symptoms do not go away after a while, you should seek help from a dermatologist.

The first changes will be noticeable immediately, as during the procedure dead cells are exfoliated, and the skin is renewed and healthier. But this effect is short-lived, after a few days the skin will look as usual. To get long-term, pronounced results, warming masks and other home cosmetic procedures must be done regularly and for a long time. This is due to the fact that the effect of such simple facial skin care methods is cumulative. Only after 6-8 weeks of constant procedures can the skin condition return to normal, and the processes of withering and aging, if not reversed, will slow down.

Are there any contraindications for using warming face masks?

Any cosmetic procedure may have contraindications for use, warming masks are no exception. They cannot be done in the following cases:

1. General malaise, weakness, increased body temperature.
2. Any infectious and inflammatory diseases of the body.
3. Foci of inflammation on the face - ulcers, abscesses, multiple pimples.
4. The presence of deep damage to the integrity of the skin.
5. The presence of neoplasms on the skin of the face.
6. High blood pressure, problems with blood vessels, including in the face and head (vascular mesh on the skin).
7. Any circulatory disorders, blood diseases that affect blood clotting.
8. Allergy to products included in the face mask. If you are not sure whether the component composition of the product will cause an allergy or not, do a simple test. Apply a small amount of product to the inside of your elbow or wrist for 10-15 minutes. If the skin does not turn red and there are no other signs of hypersensitivity, then the composition can be applied to the face.
9. Overly sensitive facial skin, prone to redness and irritation.

Even if you have no obvious contraindications to the use of warming masks, it is still recommended to consult a cosmetologist or dermatologist before carrying out the procedures.

How often can you do warming face masks?

Only a cosmetologist can give a clear answer to this question after diagnosing the condition of the skin. But there are general, standard recommendations that can be followed if there are no contraindications.

If the skin condition is normal, and you just want to shed its youth, prevent age-related changes, do warming face masks once every 14 days, preferably before bed, and not in the morning. Or on weekends, when you don’t need to go anywhere, you can do without makeup. If you make a warming mask before applying cosmetics, you can only harm the skin. After all, the pores will open and will remain in this state for some time. If you do makeup, you will clog your pores with foundation or other product. And there will be no point in a cosmetic procedure. If you absolutely cannot do without applying cosmetics, wait at least 20-30 minutes, wipe your skin with an ice cube to close the pores. Ice can be made from plain boiled, bottled water or from an aqueous infusion of medicinal herbs (chamomile, St. John's wort, calendula).

If the skin is aging and obvious age-related changes are noticeable, warming masks can be done more often, but not much. For example, once a week.

Cosmetologists say that in the cold season, warming masks should be done a little more often than in summer and early autumn. Wind, snow and frost have an extremely negative impact on the skin, so it requires a lot of effort to recover. Warming masks are designed to help the epidermis, start the processes of regeneration and protection from environmental factors. In addition, at the end of winter and spring, the body experiences a lack of vitamins and minerals. Therefore, a warming mask can perform an additional function as a source of biologically active substances of the epidermis to eliminate deficiency. If you are having a cosmetic procedure during the cold season, do not go outside for several hours and allow your skin to return to normal. After all, a sharp temperature change can damage the epidermis, which can lead to the development of rosacea.

The result is clear skin without professional cosmetics.

Steaming facial masks are an important skin cleansing process. Negative external factors: polluted environment, daily makeup, dry air - everything causes an irreparable blow to the condition of the skin and its youth. And thanks to cleansing cosmetics, the main condition for youth is preserved - healthy skin.

Regular use of these products will bring positive results:

• the skin will become clean, acne will disappear;
• small wrinkles will be smoothed out;
• the surface of the face will become even and smooth;
• a healthy glow will appear.
