Many beautiful women choose to use expensive cosmetics for daily care, regularly go to beauty salons for comprehensive care, and eat various skin care products, etc. However, the result is that acne still exists and the skin still lacks luster. In fact, many times the problem lies in the skincare method, but you have been in the dark. Correct daily skincare steps are of utmost importance. Stay away from misunderstandings and adhere to the correct skincare methods. Good skin will naturally belong to you, otherwise it will only become uglier.
Misunderstanding 1: The skin is cleanest in the morning, so rinsing with water is enough
Correct solution: After waking up, drink a cup of warm salt water and choose a gentle moisturizing facial cleanser.
Make daily morning cleansing a routine task, don't rush through it. Washing your face in the morning is to cleanse the secretions produced by the skin's metabolism overnight. At this time, there are sweat and sebum secretions on the skin, as well as the shedding of aging keratin from the metabolism. There are even unclean substances such as mites and dust from pillows and towels on the face. Therefore, proper and moderate cleansing is very necessary. In addition, clean skin provides a good base for skincare throughout the day.
Misunderstanding 2: When acne appears on the face, use foundation and concealer to cover it up
Correct solution: Correctly assess your skin type and choose suitable moisturizing and acne-fighting products.
Many beautiful women have experienced this situation: when acne appears on the face, they continue to use makeup products to cover it up for the sake of looking good. However, the acne spreads and becomes more severe. In fact, the main causes of acne are hormonal imbalance during puberty and improper skin cleansing. But no matter what the reason is, if you want to quickly fight acne, the first step is to choose a moisturizing and acne-fighting product, and try to avoid using concealer products that can easily clog pores. Because in addition to controlling oil and reducing redness and swelling, moisturizing is the best way to control the development of acne and repair cell tissues. Opening the pores and eliminating toxins are key to rapid repair. Foundation and other products hinder the free breathing of pores. Once the skin has acne, the best way is to moisturize the skin first, ensure thorough cleansing and pore openness, avoid spicy food, and relieve inflammation. After the skin recovers, then apply makeup.
Misunderstanding 3: Sitting in the office all day, there is no need to apply sunscreen
In summer, the ultraviolet rays are stronger. Applying sunscreen when going out is something that most women can do. However, many office workers believe that they are away from ultraviolet rays when hiding in the office and there is no need to apply sunscreen. In fact, ultraviolet rays are much more cunning than we imagine. The UVA rays have strong penetrability and can easily penetrate into the room as long as there are glass windows, regardless of whether it is sunny or cloudy. In addition, the power of ultraviolet rays keeps increasing from sunrise in the morning. It reaches its peak at 2 pm. Therefore, during the morning and evening commuting and lunchtime, you will also be exposed to ultraviolet rays. So, it is necessary to develop a habit of applying sunscreen 30 minutes before going out.
SPF15 sunscreen is recommended for daily work, but if you are traveling or exposed to the sun for a long time, it is recommended to use SPF30 and PA+10 or higher sunscreen and reapply every 2 hours.
Misunderstanding 4: After a morning, the makeup on the face has already faded, quickly touch up with powder
Correct solution: Use moisturizing mist before touching up makeup, which can protect the skin and make the makeup last longer and look more natural!
After 4 hours in the morning, facial oil is already distributed unevenly. If you directly apply foundation at this time, it is easy to create clumps, which will cause uneven skin tone and enlarged pores in the long run.
Misunderstanding 5: Eat and rest after returning home in the evening, remove makeup before bed
Correct solution: Remove makeup immediately upon entering the house!
You must change the bad habit of laziness as soon as you get home. After a whole day, the skin has been eroded by dust, makeup, and oil. Remember that the longer dirt stays on the face, the easier it is to clog pores, leading to blackheads and acne. Therefore, you should immediately use makeup remover oil to remove makeup and residual dirt when you get home. For the T-zone, which is more prone to oil accumulation on the forehead and nose, clean and gently massage while washing to help remove dirt hidden in the pores and keep the pores clear. It is also worth mentioning that ladies who usually wear makeup must choose professional makeup remover and cleansing products. Makeup remover and cleansing products are completely different in nature and cannot be replaced by just one kind of product for skincare.
Misunderstanding 6: The longer you put on a moisturizing mask before bed, the better. Only remove it when it is completely dry
Correct solution: Start timing from the moment you put on the mask, remove the mask after 15 to 20 minutes, and apply skincare products.
The longer you put on a mask on your face, the more your skin absorbs is actually the opposite. If you leave the mask on for too long, the nutrients and moisture on the mask will evaporate and dissipate. As a result, they will take away the moisture on your skin, making your skin even drier. This is actually harmful to the skin.
