3 Great Jelly Face Masks

If you have problems with wrinkles or lack of elasticity in your skin, you probably don’t know that using a jelly mask can be very helpful in this type of case.

This is because we normally know gelatine for other health-related properties. For example, we know that it is low in fat and very high in protein, which makes it a healthy and delicious option that we should include in our diet.

If you want to discover a different use of gelatine, read this article. We are sure that this information will surprise you and will be very useful on a daily basis. Take note!

Benefits of Gelatin for Skin and Hair

One thing we shouldn’t forget is that if gelatin is appreciated for anything, it’s because of its high collagen content.

Over the years, we started to produce less, according to this study by the University of Granada (Spain), and we have to balance this difference with food. Collagen is one of the most important proteins in our body. It is essential for maintaining good health and strength of bones, skin, nails and hair.

How not to lose collagen quickly?

Something as simple as taking care of our lifestyle habits will cause collagen levels not to drop so quickly. If we introduce collagen-rich foods into our diet, we will make up for this deficit.

On the other hand, we must avoid certain factors such as stress, tobacco, exposure to the sun or poor diet, which will accelerate this almost irremediable loss of collagen in our body.

The daily use of gelatine as a nourishing medicine for the skin and hair can provide the necessary amount of collagen, as well as give our skin elasticity. See how you can use it with the following masks.
