If you’re looking for a natural way to firm your skin without breaking the bank, look no further than flaxseeds. These tiny seeds are packed with skin-loving nutrients that can help lift, tone, and rejuvenate your face – all in the comfort of your own home.
Why Flaxseeds Are a Game-Changer
Flaxseeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, lignans, and antioxidants. These work together to:
- Boost collagen and elastin production
- Smooth fine lines and wrinkles
- Hydrate and plump the skin
- Improve skin elasticity and firmness
Regular use of flaxseed cream can naturally tighten facial skin and restore that fresh, youthful look.
How to Make Flaxseed Cream at Home
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons whole flaxseeds
- 1 cup water
- Optional: a few drops of vitamin E oil or rosewater for added benefits
Instructions:
- In a small pot, bring the water to a boil.
- Add the flaxseeds and stir continuously. After a few minutes, the water will thicken into a gel-like texture.
- Once it becomes sticky (like egg white), remove from heat and let it cool.
- Strain using a fine mesh or clean cloth to separate the seeds from the gel.
- (Optional) Add 3–4 drops of vitamin E oil or a splash of rosewater for extra hydration and preservation.
- Store the gel in a small glass container in the fridge (lasts about 5–7 days).
How to Use
- Apply a thin layer to clean skin, especially on areas that need firming (cheeks, jawline, forehead).
- Leave on for 15–20 minutes until it tightens.
- Rinse with warm water and pat dry.
- Use daily or 3–4 times a week for visible results.
Nature Over Chemicals
Why spend money on chemical-filled creams when flaxseeds can give your skin the lift it needs – naturally and gently? This simple homemade cream is effective, affordable, and full of goodness your skin will love.
These Target stores are set to close: Here’s the full list
Target, grappling with escalating theft and “organized retail crime,” is set to close nine outlets across four states. Despite “adding more security team members, using third-party guard services, and implementing theft-deterrent tools,” the challenges with crime persisted. Below are the affected markets along with the remaining stores and employment data:
New York City: Harlem: 517 E 117th St. (96 remaining stores, over 20,000 team members) Seattle: University Way: 4535 University Way NE Ballard: 1448 NW Market St., Ste. 100 (22 remaining stores, nearly 4,000 team members) San Francisco/Oakland: SF Folsom: 1690 Folsom St. Oakland Broadway: 2650 Broadway Pittsburg: 4301 Century Blvd. (32 remaining stores, over 6,400 team members) Portland: Galleria: 939 SW Morrison St. Powell: 3031 SE Powell Blvd. Hollywood: 4030 NE Halsey St. (15 remaining stores, more than 2,500 team members) Over 150 stores remain operational in these regions. Target is boosting security through locking cases for certain merchandise and allying with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Homeland Security Investigations division. “While we will continue to make meaningful investments throughout our business, we cannot solve this issue on our own,” the firm noted.
