Lifestyle Desk:- The effects of sunlight, dust, pollution and the hustle and bustle of the day become clearly visible on our skin. Due to prolonged exposure to sunlight or exposure to pollution, the face sometimes appears dry, tired and lifeless. Especially people whose skin is already dry, they may feel more stretch and dryness on the face. In such a situation, face mist is used to make the skin feel fresh from time to time. There are many types of face mist available in the market, but if you want to try an easy option at home, then you can prepare face mist with coconut water.
Coconut water contains water and some nutrients, due to which it can feel refreshing to the skin. Let us know how to make and use it.
How to make coconut water face mist?
For this you will not need many things. First of all take fresh and clean coconut water. Filter it thoroughly so that there are no small pieces of coconut or any impurities left in it. Now fill it in a clean spray bottle. If your skin is sensitive to any particular thing, then avoid adding lemon juice, essential oil or other things in it. An easier option is to use plain coconut water mist.
How to use on face?
After cleaning the face, you can lightly spray coconut water face mist on the face. Avoid applying it around the eyes. After spraying, leave the skin like this for some time and if needed, apply moisturizer gently.
It is better to use it as per need rather than using it repeatedly during the day. Especially after returning home from outside, first clean the face with clean water or mild cleanser and then use mist.
Why can it be useful for people with dry skin?
In dry skin, more stretch and dryness may be felt on the skin. In such a situation, applying water-based mist on the face can make the skin feel fresh and hydrated for some time. But just applying face mist does not lock the moisture of the skin for long. Therefore, after this it is important to apply moisturizer according to your skin.
Keep these things in mind before using
Being homemade doesn't mean every DIY recipe will be safe for every person's skin. Before using for the first time, do a patch test on a small part of the face. If you feel redness, burning, itching or any kind of discomfort, stop using it.
Do not store coconut water in a clean bottle at room temperature for a long time. It can spoil quickly. Therefore, make face mist in small quantities, keep the bottle clean and keep it in a cool place or refrigerator. If you notice any change in smell, color or texture, do not apply it on the face at all.
Keep in mind that face mists are not a substitute for regular skin care. Daily facial cleansing, moisturizer and use of sunscreen while going out during the day is more important in skin care. If the skin constantly remains very dry, red or has problems like itching, then it is better to consult a dermatologist instead of trying home remedies.
