In addition, flaxseed has detoxifying and soothing properties. It can reduce the signs of aging that appear on the face. Thanks to estrogen, more collagen is produced, which smoothes wrinkles and keeps the skin young.

For a flaxseed mask, you need to take whole flaxseeds, which will need to be ground every three days. It must be fresh to be effective. It is recommended to store the ingredients in a cool, dark, dry place, away from heat sources.

Instructions for making a linen mask:

1. Pour a tablespoon of flax with 85 ml of boiling water, mix, and cover with a kitchen towel.

2. Let the mixture brew during the day, until the evening.

3. For the mask, use only water that has absorbed all the beneficial properties of flax seeds.

Experts advise preparing this mask in the morning and using it in the evening before going to bed or after waking up.
