Natural Skin Care Recipes Using Avocado To Stimulate Collagen

Our skin is mainly made up of collagen –mainly 80% of the dry weight of the skin is made of collagen. It is the main structural protein found throughout our body. Collagen provides the strength our tissues and organs need while elastin provides the ability to stretch and recoil.

Collagen works hand in hand with elastin in supporting the body’s tissues. It gives the body tissues form and provides firmness and strength. Elastin gives the same body tissues much needed flexibility.  Some people refer to collagen as the “glue that holds the body together”.

The goal in skin rejuvenation is to have a treatment that stimulates new collagen development. Any collagen cream claiming to give immediate results will not be long lasting.  Increasing collagen does not happen overnight as it takes time for a substance to bond with your skin naturally.

It has been scientifically proven that avocado oil stimulates an increase in  the amount of  soluble collagen in the dermis layer of the skin. 

Although avocado oil is officially a vegetable oil, it is really a fruit because it has a stone.

Avocado oil penetrates into deep skin tissue. It enriches, nourishes and revitalizes the skin. The oil is rich in vitamin A, D and E.  The oil contains proteins, lecithin and amino acids.

It is highly therapeutic and is said to have regenerating properties. This oil is ideal for mature and dry skin, or for sensitive and problem skin.

 It also relieves the dryness and itching of psoriasis, eczema and other skin ailments. It is very useful when treating sun, climate or chemical damaged skin that is dehydrated or undernourished.  Avocado oil is very high in nutritional value and will help keep your skin healthy.

 And it stimulates collagen production.

 Here are three simple natural skin care recipes for you to try using  avocado. All these recipes work well for dry winter skin.

Mask #1

mash 1/2 avocado and apply to face. Leave on for 15 minutes and rinse off with warm water.

Mask # 2

take 1/2 ripe avocado and mix with 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil. Apply to a clean face, leaving it on for 15-20 minutes. Rinse off with warm water.

Mask #3

1/3 cup peeled and mashed avocado

1/3 cup milk

1 egg yolk

Beat the egg yolk first in a bowl until fluffy.  Add the avocado and milk to the beaten egg. Mix well. Apply to face and leave on for approximately 15-20 minutes. Rinse well with warm water.

Here are two dry skin facial SCRUB recipes you’ll like:

Moisturizing body and facial scrub – you can either use salt or sugar.  Sugar tends to be more gentle than salt, so it’s up to you. If you have super sensitive skin, you may want to use brown sugar.

Use either olive oil, organic extra virgin coconut oil, almond oil, safflower oil or vegetable oil – your going to add one part of oil to 2 parts of the sugar or salt and mix together in a small container. (don’t be alarmed if the salt seperates and falls to the bottom – it will do that).

Use this scrub mixture during showering or bathing. Apply mixture to wet skin in a circular motion and lightly scrub the face, or any other areas of dry skin (elbows, knees, feet). Finish by rinsing well with warm water.

Brown Sugar Scrub for Dry Skin

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1 teaspoon (or less) olive oil or extra virgin coconut oil
