What is useful for flaxseed oil when taken orally - see the video
Hello dear readers! By chance, I ended up in a large supermarket, which is just not there - my eyes run wide. There are no such stores in our village, so I walked up to my heart's content. I was most fascinated by the counter with oils - such a variety! Prices range from 70 rubles to several thousand. The names are the most incredible - it would seem, from such products, from which it is generally impossible to make oil.
But what caught my attention was a modest little bottle of linseed oil. I, after all, know that linseed oil is used in cosmetology for wrinkles. And this turned out to be enough to buy a 200-gram bottle of a magical remedy with a very short shelf life - for a very reasonable price, by the way.
Important! If you decide to buy flaxseed oil, be sure to look at its stated expiration date. For a natural product, it should not exceed several months. Otherwise, you're getting an oily cocktail of preservatives.
From this article you will learn:
Composition and properties
Compared to other natural vegetable oils, flaxseed oil is the leader in the content of substances that are beneficial for the skin and health as such. Here's what it contains: 
- Vitamins A, E, F - in quantities that are simply off scale, incredible, huge benefits for the skin of the face and body.
- Fatty acids from our skin's favorite class, polyunsaturated acids. Namely, the famous Omega-3 and Omega-6. And by the way, there are more Omega-3s here than anywhere else. vegetable oil and, even more than in (but he is still out of competition!). What does it mean? This means that we receive substances that increase cellular activity, which means that the skin's ability to regenerate better.
- The most important component of the composition is phytoestrogens, substances that contain some herbs, including flax. They are like female sex hormones. When applied externally, they smooth and rejuvenate the skin, eliminate sagging and dryness, and fight wrinkles.
Note: our body is not able to independently produce polyunsaturated fatty acids omega-3 and omega-6, we get them only from the outside.
All because of the same phytohormones, the attitude to linseed oil is twofold: some venerable doctors believe that its use can change hormonal balance organism, and this is a dangerous business. And, according to others, the opposite is true. This group of scientists claims that phytoestrogens are incredibly beneficial and even treat cancer.
In any case, their effect on the skin is undeniable: after all, these are the hormones of youth and female beauty. I am going to use the oil for external use. And here flaxseed oil has another advantage: it absorbs and dries incredibly quickly, so it is convenient to use it at home as a cream.
Application methods
inside
Nutritionists recommend drinking a tablespoon of this wonderful product every morning, and of course, on an empty stomach. If you can’t drink such a not-too-tasty “medicine” in its pure form, it will be absorbed quite well in a salad.
The result of this should be a general improvement and, as a result, restoration of the skin, reduction of flabbiness, reduction of wrinkles. Minus - for me, in any case: it is not a fact that the effect of phytoestrogens on the body will necessarily be favorable.
Outwardly
As a cream, rubbing, in a warm compress. Improves the skin of the face and body, eliminates wrinkles and fights sagging on the neck, smoothes even deep wrinkles on the forehead.
Attention! Do not apply to the skin around the eyes! This is way too strong.
Body cream. Flaxseed oil is perfectly absorbed, nourishes the skin, activates cell growth and skin renewal, so it can be perfectly used as a body cream.
Masks. Well, there is no limit to the imagination. You, I think, understand me - I love all kinds of masks.
Beautician advice: in the composition of masks, if the ingredients are correctly selected, their action is mutually enhanced. And this means that the rejuvenating effect of linseed oil will appear faster if you mix it with other “rejuvenating” products.
Before we start looking at beauty recipes, watch the video. In it, in addition to an overview of the benefits of our today's hero, there are also recipes:
Masks, creams, beauty

Important! Linseed oil deteriorates extremely quickly, rancid, so do not store it longer than the expiration date indicated on the vessel with this magical remedy.
Oil compress
Add to linen equal proportions olive and nut oils, heat up to 40 degrees and, having soaked gauze folded in several layers in the mixture, apply on the face. 20 minutes - and you are beautiful. This compress is quite a strong remedy, in any case, I myself observed a pronounced “before and after” effect from it.
Vitamin nourishing mask
Great mask for late spring - early summer. A spoonful of sour cream, a spoonful of butter, a couple of large strawberries mashed into puree - and 20 minutes of relaxed rest. Do not forget to think about how beautiful and renewed you will feel after this mask, then its effect will double.

Greetings, my dear readers! Recently I found out what is the secret of the beauty of the inhabitants of Ancient Egypt. When caring for the skin of the face and body, they used "living water". No, no, it's not living water"from the fairy tale" About rejuvenating apples "... 🙂 This is flax oil. It is still appreciated today, and is often used in cosmetology. For example, they use flaxseed oil for wrinkles on the face - the reviews of those who tried it on themselves advised me to write this article.
The opinion on how to use such a miracle remedy in reducing wrinkles is very diverse. You can see some of them for yourself:
Vika : Add a teaspoon of oil to skim cheese. I noticed after a month that my stomach began to work better.
Marina : I have dry skin, especially in winter some kind of horror. I do so. I steam 2 teaspoons of seeds and grind them with a blender. I do a compress for 10 minutes. The skin is awesome.
Lenchik: After applying the oil, a greasy film remains on the skin. I started to get flaky and dry. Now I only add to the scrub for peeling or massage. And in general, the same tool can not be constantly used. After such procedures, I reanimated my skin with moisturizing creams for a long time.
Daria : My hair and nails have stopped peeling. No more than a teaspoon per day. Satisfied with the result. I actually do it every other day. The liver does not want to load
Veronica: Oils must not be used undiluted. They dry out the skin! It is better to buy creams with oils or oil serums.
Natasha: Oils clog pores. I put it on my body olive oil, and I smear my face with a mixture of shea and olive. I don't do it more than once a week. And after the skin needs to be well moisturized.
Katia : Spread at night on the face and around the eyes. Wrinkles are gone, like the eyes themselves, just slits. The face is all swollen. It didn't work for me.
Here is another short video about the use of oil as part of a facial mask:
Well, I’ll tell you more about masks, and now I’ll tell you more about linseed oil itself.
What are the benefits of flax oil for skin
It is obtained by cold pressing from seeds. And to judge the benefits of this product is possible only after considering it. chemical composition. This miracle remedy is rich in such components:
- , which have a rejuvenating effect;
- , for the smoothness of our skin;
- , which removes redness and strengthens the protective barrier of the skin;
- phylloquinone, which whitens our skin;
- tonic;
- which soothes irritated skin.
Oil selection and storage
In general, flax oil is very capricious. If stored or used incorrectly, such a product will turn into poison. It is very dangerous! When buying, make sure that it is really fresh. This is easy to do: look at the date of manufacture. Try not to buy a product older than 1-2 months.
After opening the bottle, store it only in a cool place. The container must be well sealed. Also, do not use the product if the bottle has been opened for more than a month.
Maslice may lose its beneficial features exposed to direct sunlight. To avoid this, keep valuable product in dark glass containers.
Flaxseed oil should only be eaten raw. Add to salads, curds, ready meals. By the way, in no case should it be subjected to heat treatment or frying on it. It is advisable to use this product regularly. So the body will quickly absorb all the valuable components present in this remedy for the benefit of the cells. The course lasts an average of 2-3 weeks, then they take a two- or three-week break and continue taking it again. But I recommend that you consult with your doctor.
ALL SECRETS OF BEAUTY
Application in cosmetology
In general, the use of flaxseed oil in in kind must be justified, as with any oil and fat component. Oils do not contain moisture, but retain it. Oils are especially useful for dry and unprotected skin in the autumn-winter season.
Thanks to its omega-3 anti-inflammatory component, flaxseed oil helps to minimize skin irritation, redness and inflammation of any kind. But again here you need to use this tool not every day. If used on an ongoing basis, it will dry out the skin.
Why is flax oil used in cosmetology for face care?
- increase the tone of aging skin;
- lightening freckles and age spots;
- prevention and reduction of wrinkles.
After the penetration of molecules into cell membranes, intracellular pressure increases. Well, this leads to an increase in skin elasticity and smoothing wrinkles. But, unfortunately, such "rejuvenation" is temporary. That is, while the oil is in the skin, the effect persists, and then everything passes.
Since this product can cause an allergic reaction, I advise you to test it before using it. Apply just a few drops to the crook of your elbow. After half an hour or an hour, carefully inspect this area of \u200b\u200bthe body. If there is no redness reaction, you can safely use this product.
Amazing scrub
How can wrinkles be smoothed out without cleansing the skin before? This is where we need a scrub. It is very easy to prepare. You will need the following products: 1 tbsp. coffee grounds, 8 drops of linseed oil, 2-3 drops essential oil cocoa. Mix the ingredients and apply the gruel on the prepared face. For literally 1-2 minutes, gently massage the skin. After that, leave the mixture for 5-10 minutes, and then wash with warm water.
For eyelids - flax seeds
In general, flax oil is heavy for the delicate skin under the eyes, so it is better not to use it. I propose to replace this remedy with a decoction of flax seeds. Take 2 tsp. flax seeds + 150 ml of water.
Having carefully studied and studied a bunch of material on the use of oils for wrinkles, I came to the conclusion. One mono-remedy will not replace a moisturizer, nourishing masks and special products for the eyelid area. Flaxseed oil can be included in a home remedy kit, but not a substitute for basic care. It is most suitable for dry skin with age-related changes. For this type of oil, they are very suitable for use, but only as “one-time” procedures.
For oily and combination with inflammatory manifestations or acne, the use of oils can be difficult for the skin. There is a high probability of aggravation of inflammatory processes or their appearance.
- thoroughly clean the skin before the procedure. Wash your hands first and then remove all makeup from your face. You can use foam or gel. I use foam cleanser. Best for my sensitive skin.
- Oil solutions should be applied only after moisturizing the face. It may or may not be mineral. This is an indispensable tool for moisturizing, especially during the heating season. The oil will nourish and prevent moisture from evaporating.
- Carry out the procedure of oil compresses no more than 1-2 times a week. And look at how your skin feels.
- Do not keep pure oil on the skin for more than 5 minutes. Be sure to remove all residues of this product with a cleansing foam or gel.
- Do gymnastics for the face. The more often you do such exercises, the better the tone of the facial muscles will be. This means there will be fewer wrinkles.
Many dermatological companies have micellar oils in their arsenal. For example, Vichy cosmetics (which I am currently testing) have Serum Neovadiol. It contains a concentrate of shea butter, rice germ, rice bran, safflower oil and tocopherol (vitamin E) and extract capsicum. Agree, an interesting concentrate healthy oils in one medium. According to the reviews, the girls are satisfied with the result. Try it, read the reviews and write me your impressions.
