Spring is here, and various skin problems are emerging. Spring is a season prone to skin allergies because many flowers are blooming. When people go out for spring outings, they may be troubled by pollen. Some people have allergies and may experience skin allergies when exposed to pollen. So how can we prevent skin allergies in spring? Let's take a look at some tips for spring skin allergy care!
How to take care of skin allergies in spring:
1. Hydrate.
The skin is oily on the outside and dry on the inside. I believe that moisturizing the skin should be the first step. Only when the skin is hydrated can we consider other things. Otherwise, your skin will only get worse. If you follow the following skincare methods, your skin will become more and more moisturized, naturally bright and white.
2. Avoid excessive use of spot-removing products.
Friends with spots on their faces, please note that if it is sunspots, they can be eradicated. But if it is freckles that you are born with, to be honest, they cannot be eradicated because there are freckle elements in your blood. They can only be lightened. I advise you not to believe in any spot-removing products. These products can only lighten the spots, not eradicate them.
3. Pay attention to sun protection.
In fact, sun protection should be done all year round. Do not think that the UV rays are weaker in winter. The UV rays are the same in all four seasons. Also, do not think that UV rays are lower on cloudy days. The UV rays on cloudy days are also high. Therefore, sun protection should be taken. Even if you stay at home and do not go out, there is still UV radiation indoors. Indoor UV radiation is even higher than outdoors due to the radiation from various electronic devices. So sun protection is the most important thing of the day.
4. Pay attention to skin cleansing.
Wash your face twice a day. In the morning, wash off the oil on your face after a night's sleep. In the evening, focus on cleansing your skin. It is a must to wash your face before going to bed (with a facial cleanser suitable for your skin type). It is best to wash your face with warm water. After washing your face thoroughly, splash cold water on your face to improve skin elasticity, which has a great effect on moisturizing the skin. After washing your face, be sure to apply toner. Toner also helps to cleanse the skin.
5. Maintain indoor cleanliness.
Keep the air flowing by opening the windows, and keep the indoor environment clean. Change bed sheets and bedding regularly. When going out for spring outings, take protective measures and try to avoid contact with pollen. It is best to wear long sleeves and wear a mask.
6. Minimize makeup.
Try not to wear heavy makeup. After a skin allergy, immediately stop using any cosmetics and observe and care for the skin.
7. Consume anti-allergy foods.
In addition to honey, allergy sufferers can eat more foods such as red dates, carrots, enoki mushrooms, onions, and garlic. These foods contain a large amount of anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic substances, which can effectively prevent pollen allergies, allergic dermatitis, and other allergic reactions.
8. Engage in regular exercise.
Skin allergies in spring are closely related to the immune system's response to external irritants such as dust and pollen. Therefore, actively participating in exercise can improve the body's immune system, regulate the body's immune function, help improve the susceptibility to allergies, and is also a way to prevent spring skin allergies.
