• A tendency to develop acne and inflammation. Many remedies promise us getting rid of these ailments, but not all of them are effective as cleansing with acetylsalicylic acid.
• Uneven complexion, age spots. Aspirin has a brightening effect. If it is not possible to completely get rid of age spots, then it will be possible to make them less noticeable for sure.
• Increased oily skin (oily sheen and grease may be a sign). Many people try to mask it with foundations and powders. But it is better to solve the problem - to eliminate the cause of the appearance of the shine, than to constantly apply masking agents to the skin.
• Black spots. Their removal is gentle and painless in this case (as opposed to mechanical cleaning, in which microtrauma occurs).
• The skin is sensitive to various decorative cosmetics and care products. Regular cleaning with aspirin makes the skin more resistant to environmental influences and make-up.
• Mature skin. Dull complexion and aging skin have not made anyone more beautiful. It is necessary to deal with such signs at an early stage.
• Enlarged pores. It looks unaesthetic and adds a lot of unnecessary problems. Aspirin is able to shrink pores, make the surface of the skin smooth and velvety.
• Loss of skin elasticity and tone. Such a problem can be encountered not only in old age, but also at a fairly young age. The reason for this is poor ecology, stress and other unfavorable factors.

Despite its many advantages, aspirin is a medication, therefore, thoughtless and uncontrolled use (even external) can lead to undesirable consequences. To prevent this, carefully read the list of contraindications.

There are not so many of them, but they still need to be taken into account.

• Pregnancy and lactation. Since the effect of this mask has not been subjected to serious scientific research in pregnant and lactating women, it is difficult to predict the result / side effects. It is better to completely refuse such cleaning for this period of time.

• Infectious diseases. This is not only about skin diseases. Postpone the cleaning procedure until you are completely recovered.
• Individual intolerance. Each of us has a unique organism, has its own characteristics. One of them may be intolerance to acetylsalicylic acid.
• Wounds, cuts, scrapes. Prevent aspirin from getting into open wounds.

Cleaning your face at home with aspirin is not so difficult. This does not require either expensive equipment or special cosmetics.

There are certain rules and steps that must be followed in order to obtain maximum results.

• Stage 1 - cleansing. Before the procedure itself, the skin must be rid of decorative cosmetics and visible impurities. This will help the aspirin act directly on the epidermis itself. You can use your usual cleanser (gel, foam, lotion).
• Stage 2 - steaming. Prepare an herbal bath. You can use sage or chamomile. Lean over the bath, cover your head with a towel. As a result of this manipulation, the pores will open, which will facilitate the penetration of the active substance into the skin.

It is necessary to move along the massage lines - from the wings of the nose to the ears, from the chin upward, from the bridge of the nose to the hairline. Leave the product on the skin for 25 minutes. Important: if you experience severe tingling or burning, immediately wash off the mask with warm water.

It should be understood that it is almost impossible to achieve a tangible result in one procedure. It is recommended to do the mask about once a week. After a course of procedures of 10 sessions, you yourself will feel the beneficial effect of cleansing. Any mask with aspirin should not be applied to the area around the eyes and the nasolabial triangle.

You need to wash off the mask with plain water after a quarter of an hour.
