Sunscreen is one of the commonly used cosmetics in daily life, but many people only use sunscreen because they see others using it, without understanding its benefits. Let's take a look below.
Perfect Base Makeup
Before applying foundation, applying a suitable amount of sunscreen can make the foundation adhere more naturally to the face. If foundation is applied directly after applying moisturizer, it is more likely to appear cakey, especially for people with larger pores. The foundation not only fails to hide the pores naturally, but also appears unnatural.
Long-lasting Makeup
Sunscreen can help make makeup last longer. We all know that the most embarrassing thing about makeup is smudging. When the skin is dry, makeup is more likely to come off. Using a moisturizing sunscreen or combining a hydrating lotion with sunscreen can prevent this embarrassment and make the makeup last longer.
Protection against Pollution
Sunscreen can form a protective film on the surface of the skin, preventing the skin from being directly exposed to the air for a long time and avoiding excessive dust and pollution, thus better protecting the skin.
Protection against Radiation
When using computers or watching TV, electromagnetic radiation easily gathers a lot of dust and dirt, and static electricity also easily attracts a large amount of dust and particles. Applying sunscreen can help reduce the direct damage of radiation pollution to the skin.
Improvement of Skin Tone
Sunscreen can help improve skin tone. Common skin problems such as dullness and uneven skin tone can be adjusted using sunscreen. Generally, purple sunscreen is for adjusting dull skin, green sunscreen can improve redness or facial redness, and blue sunscreen can enhance skin radiance, and so on.
Mild Sun Protection
Sunscreen generally has sun protection effects, but its sun protection effect is limited, usually only suitable for indoor use. If you need to go outdoors, it is still necessary to use professional sunscreen.
Side Effects of Sunscreen
On one hand, sunscreen helps to protect against pollution, but it also isolates the moisture and oxygen that the skin needs. If moisturizing is not done before applying sunscreen, the skin can easily become dry.
In addition, it is important to remove makeup in a timely manner after using sunscreen. Sunscreen contains sunscreen agents, color pigments, and other chemicals, and not removing it in time can cause great harm to the skin, leading to clogged pores, acne, and blackheads.
