Mumiyo for facial skin: what is it like and how to work with it?
Mumiyo comes in two forms: liquid and tablets.
Liquid mumiyo is several times more effective than the tablet form, but mumiyo tablets for the face are much more convenient to use: they quickly turn into powder and can be added to any other product.
Face masks with aspirin: homemade recipes
No product with the addition of mumiyo can be used more often than once every 10 to 14 days - it is still a medicine. The course usually consists of 10 - 12 procedures - approximately 5 months. During this time, you will not only see the transformation of your skin, but also cure it of those shortcomings that have tormented you for years. The break between courses of procedures should be at least six months - there is no need to partake.
For best results, you should complete the course in its entirety. By abandoning the procedures for the 5th time, you will not cure the problem - you will only temporarily hide it.
Mumiyo is widely used in facial cosmetology - it is added to creams, masks, and used in salon procedures. You can do the same thing at home - shilajit can be ordered online or purchased at most pharmacies.
Mumiyo in cosmetology: women have been testing recipes for healing masks with mumiyo on themselves for centuries. Aristotle hardly cared about skin problems, but he described in detail in his works what mummy is and how it affects the body. Since Aristotle appreciated it, then perhaps you can try it for yourself.
Contraindications, possible negative consequences
Mumiyo causes allergies extremely rarely. It itself is a natural antihistamine. But it is impossible to say that such a reaction is completely excluded. If you know that you have a tendency to develop allergies, first test the prepared composition by applying a couple of drops to the inner bend of the elbow, wrist, skin behind the ear or on the temple. Rash, itching, burning, redness, swelling, and other symptoms accompanying a negative reaction make themselves felt quite quickly, within half an hour. If nothing like this happens during this time, the product is suitable for use.
An allergic reaction to mumiyo is a very rare, but not impossible, occurrence.
Despite all the benefits of mumiyo, it has other contraindications, in addition to individual intolerance:
- Pregnancy at any stage and the entire period of natural feeding of the child. At this time, the body is experiencing a serious hormonal “change”; an unpredictable reaction to any substances and drugs is possible. There have also been no targeted studies to study the effect of mumiyo on the fetus. The only exception in this case is cosmetic ice.
- Age up to 12 years when taken orally. Adherents of traditional medicine believe that mumiyo can be given to children at any age. But according to the generally accepted point of view, this is too potent a substance for a fragile organism.
- The presence of cancer at any stage and tumors of unknown etiology. Mumiyo activates the processes of cell division, including cancer cells. Tumors grow quickly.
- Hypertension and low blood clotting. The contraindication is not absolute; the decision on the advisability of using mumiyo and its dosage must be made by the attending physician.
Pregnancy means radical hormonal changes in the body - any cosmetics during this period should be used with caution
Mumiyo is strictly not combined with alcohol, even in the smallest doses. Not only alcoholic beverages, but also any pharmaceutical alcohol-containing tinctures are subject to the strictest ban during a course of cosmetic procedures or treatment.
