Without creams and procedures: how to rejuvenate the skin of the elbows – an ingenious homemade method

Surely you remember the old recipe for whitening elbows: wipe them with lemon juice. The products have their place in the fridge, of course, but there is some truth in this advice. The acid present in lemon really helps in brightening the skin, renewing it and minimizing pigmentation.

So if a toner with acids (well or serum) did not suit your skin – caused redness and irritation on your face – use it wisely, do not throw it away. Simply wipe the skin of the elbows with them 2-4 times a week!

Don’t worry, you don’t have to worry about irritation and overreaction because the skin on the elbows is not as thin as the skin on the face. Thus, the lotion will be able to show itself from the best side.

Day after day, dead scales of the epidermis appear on our skin, it is a natural physiological process. But with age and under the influence of aggressive external factors, normal skin renewal slows down, and foci of hyperkeratosis – “goosebumps” begin to appear. And after them – dehydration, pigmentation, peeling … In general, nothing beautiful and good. This is where the acids come in. They thin and loosen the top layer of the epidermis, helping to get rid of dead scales and giving way to clean, soft, clear new skin. Even at the elbows!
