If you’re looking for a natural way to firm your skin without breaking the bank, look no further than flaxseeds. These tiny seeds are packed with skin-loving nutrients that can help lift, tone, and rejuvenate your face – all in the comfort of your own home.
Why Flaxseeds Are a Game-Changer
Flaxseeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, lignans, and antioxidants. These work together to:
- Boost collagen and elastin production
- Smooth fine lines and wrinkles
- Hydrate and plump the skin
- Improve skin elasticity and firmness
Regular use of flaxseed cream can naturally tighten facial skin and restore that fresh, youthful look.
How to Make Flaxseed Cream at Home
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons whole flaxseeds
- 1 cup water
- Optional: a few drops of vitamin E oil or rosewater for added benefits
Instructions:
- In a small pot, bring the water to a boil.
- Add the flaxseeds and stir continuously. After a few minutes, the water will thicken into a gel-like texture.
- Once it becomes sticky (like egg white), remove from heat and let it cool.
- Strain using a fine mesh or clean cloth to separate the seeds from the gel.
- (Optional) Add 3–4 drops of vitamin E oil or a splash of rosewater for extra hydration and preservation.
- Store the gel in a small glass container in the fridge (lasts about 5–7 days).
How to Use
- Apply a thin layer to clean skin, especially on areas that need firming (cheeks, jawline, forehead).
- Leave on for 15–20 minutes until it tightens.
- Rinse with warm water and pat dry.
- Use daily or 3–4 times a week for visible results.
Nature Over Chemicals
Why spend money on chemical-filled creams when flaxseeds can give your skin the lift it needs – naturally and gently? This simple homemade cream is effective, affordable, and full of goodness your skin will love.
Farmer finds giant egg but what was inside was even more puzzling
When an Australian farmer went to pick up his chickens’ daily eggs, he had the shock of his life.
Three times the size of a typical egg and weighing 6.2 ounces, a huge egg had been deposited by one of his hens.
A free-range chicken at Stockman’s Eggs on the Atherton Tablelands in north Queensland laid the babushka egg.
The company’s owner, Scott Stockman, shared a picture of the amazing find he and his employees made at the farm.
It appears really strange when compared to an ordinary-sized egg, but what was possibly even stranger was what they discovered after they cracked the egg.
There was another egg, properly formed, inside the egg.
“Having two perfectly formed eggs together is just incredible,” Scott told ABC News Australia.
It was the first of its kind, according to a veterinary sciences expert from Charles Sturt University.
According to Associate Professor Raf Freire, the hen must have normally developed an egg but for some reason chose not to lay it.
Then, he told ABC News, “instead of that egg being laid, as it usually is, what’s happened is that another ovum has been released.”
That has fallen, and the chicken has inexplicably chosen to form a shell around both the egg from the day before and the recently fallen ovum.
Although the experts said that eating the egg would have been safe, Scott told ABC News that they receive 50,000 eggs per day and therefore “didn’t bother eating it.”
Quite incredible, don’t you think? If you thought this story was amazing too, tell your friends about it on Facebook!
