Peach blossom red skin cream

Ingredients: peach petal powder, black-bone chicken blood.

Practice: Mix them into paste and apply them to face and skin.

Efficacy: Peach blossom skin care can lighten the spots on the skin. In addition, peach blossoms can also be used as ingredients. The blood of black-bone chicken is rich in vitamins C and E, which can delay aging and even improve various skin problems, and the nutritional content is much more than that of ordinary chicken.

Note: You must be wondering why Princess Taiping's beauty salon insists on "picking peaches on the third day of March". How about taking the blood of silky fowl on the seventh day of July? This is because the peach blossoms in March of the lunar calendar are beautiful and of good quality. The best maintenance effect can be obtained by using the principle of seasonal change and the air flow in nature to echo the human body.

Fairy powder

Ingredients: appropriate amount of dried motherwort.

Exercise:

1. Grind dried motherwort into fine powder, add appropriate amount of water, stir into paste, and knead into egg-sized pills.

2. Make a small stove with yellow mud, leave a gap in the middle to put motherwort pills, and surround the loess with charcoal. First, burn it on high fire for 30 minutes, and then simmer it on low fire for one day. The heat should not be too strong, and motherwort pills will be ineffective if they turn yellow!

3. Finally, take it out and grind it into fine powder (the finer the better) and seal it in a porcelain bottle for later use. Wash your hands and face with our prescription every morning.

Efficacy: Motherwort can exfoliate, improve spots and acne, promote cell regeneration and keep skin smooth and moist. Motherwort is rich in vitamin A, which is also very effective for eye care.

Note: Motherwort is not suitable for beautiful women with low blood pressure and weak constitution! This kind of jade girl powder is a great contribution to Wu Zetian's appearance maintenance, but the production method and technology are extremely complicated, and the time spent and the equipment used are very troublesome. People who love beauty should be patient!

Precautions: Calomel and talc are very toxic, so be careful not to eat them by mistake!
