For a long time was going to order a licorice in a powder, and at last, happens! A huge package - almost half a kilo! Enough for a long time :) The contents of the package are the smallest powder, like powder, the raw material is fresh, the quality is at the height! I use mainly for skin care. I love making masks from this powder. If you have pigment spots from the sun, do not be lazy, try the following recipes. When laziness is busy, I take only the root of licorice - 1 tsp. I spread it to the consistency of sour cream and face for 20 minutes, I wash it off with cool water, rub it with lotion and apply oil or cream, and if there is inspiration, I make the following mix: in equal parts, by eye, take sandalwood powder, algae powder, beer yeast And licorice root, mix everything, add warm water, again, bring the mask to the consistency of sour cream and all the same, on the face, for 20 minutes. These masks are prepared for 1 time, I do not store the remains, I do 3 times a week. Another amazing tool in the form of a decoction - 1 tsp. I pour 1 cup of boiling water, I keep on the steam bath for half an hour, filter, I add 1 tsp to the cooled broth. Apple cider vinegar, so that the broth is safely stored in the refrigerator for 1 week (I do not hold it longer), and natural vinegar is good for the skin. I rub my face in the morning and evening. I make ice cubes from such a decoction, I rub my face in the morning. Washing liquor licorice for a month significantly rejuvenates the skin, gives it softness and elasticity. And, of course, I use it as tea in the cold season, taste for an amateur, someone likes it, some do not, but if my throat hurts, when a cough starts, and just as a natural remedy, the licorice root is irreplaceable for me! For one cup I take 1 tsp. And pour boiling water, after 15 minutes you can drink. A little help: In the roots of licorice contains: vitamin C, starch, pectins, flavonoids, sucrose, glucose, mucus, essential oil, cortisone-like substances, trace elements - calcium, potassium, magnesium, etc. Licorice is used to improve immunity, with colds, As an expectorant, enveloping, diuretic, anti-inflammatory agent. Preparations from licorice regulate the water-salt balance of the body, reduce the fragility of capillaries.

Licorice whitens the skin, prevents the appearance of pigment spots, has a wound healing effect, soothes irritated skin, has an anti-inflammatory effect, stimulates collagen synthesis, removes puffiness, strengthens the walls of blood vessels. Due to these properties, the licorice root extract is used in cosmetic preparations for the care of problem and anti-aging skin. If my feedback was helpful, please click below YES. Thank you:)
