As we grow old, our skin loses its elasticity. To understand why it does so, it is important to know what is elasticity.
Just perform a small test, pull your skin, if it restores back quickly then your skin is elastic, else if it sinks slowly then you should know that your skin is losing elasticity. This means you are going to get wrinkles very soon.
Our skin contains collagen which is a type of protein having a DNA structure. This collagen is responsible for tightening of the skin.
As we age, we lose collagen, and hence our skin loses its elasticity or youngness. There are many other factors apart from aging which leads to the decrease of collagen.

3. Banana And Cream Mask
Well as delicious the name is, so are the outcomes. For this firming facial mask, you will need cream and banana of course.
One ripe banana along with a quarter cup of heavy whipping cream will be sufficient. Now if you think what is heavy whipping cream then here is the answer.

Tips
If you are using this mask in summers then I would suggest you use Multani Mitti as it gives a cooling effect. It removes blemishes and also lightens your skin.
But this is not advisable for people with dry or sensitive skin because Multani Mitti draws away the oil from the skin, so for such people prefer flour in place of fullers earth.
