Lemon Juice Facial
Lemons are high in vitamin C, which boosts collagen production and helps restore the elasticity in the skin and keep it tight.
Squeeze some fresh lemon juice and rub it gently into your face and neck for 5-10 minutes. Rinse your face with water and repeat 2-3 times a day for the best results. Make sure you follow with a good moisturizer, too!
DIY Coffee Mask
Coffee is your go-to drink in the morning, and it should be your go-to ingredient for curing sagging skin, too! Coffee grounds work as an amazing exfoliant for the skin and can even help keep it firm!
Combine ¼ cup of coffee grounds, ¼ cup of brown sugar, ½ teaspoon of cinnamon, 2 tablespoons of heated coconut oil. Then, apply it to the skin using circular motions for 3 minutes. Rinse it off with warm water and repeat once a week!
Aloe Vera Mask
Aloe vera isn't only great for sunburns; it also works wonders on sagging skin! The malic acid in the gel helps improve elasticity and prevent sagging skin, and it even keeps it hydrated, too!
Extract the gel from an aloe vera leaf and apply it to the affected areas for 15-20 minutes. Then, wash it off with lukewarm water and repeat several times a week!
DIY Stretch Mark Cream
If your skin is lacking in elasticity, this DIY cream will help you! It features skin tightening ingredients like coconut oil, olive oil, cocoa butter, vitamin E and lavendar essential oil.
DIY Oil Massage
Did you know that olive oil helps to tighten loose skin? It contains antioxidants like vitamin A and vitamin E and helps to keep your skin moisturized, too!
Slightly heat some extra-virgin olive oil and apply it to your face. Gently massage the oil into your skin in circular motions for 10 minutes. We recommend doing this every night before bed for the best results!
Egg White Mask
Egg whites are a natural astringent and feature hydro lipids, which work to help lift and tighten sagging skin.
Whisk together 2 egg whites and apply it to the affected areas for 20 minutes. Then, rinse it off with cool water and repeat twice a week for the best results!
