1. Misunderstandings of beauty and skin care
1. "Whitening products are already used, so there is no need to use those greasy sunscreens."
Whitening products can inhibit and restore melanin deposition, help brighten skin tone, and fade spots and acne marks, but this is definitely not the same as ignoring sun protection. Sun protection is not only to prevent tanning and aging, but also to ensure the activity of effective ingredients in skin care products.
2. "cleansing oil can deeply clean, even without makeup."
cleansing oil can help clean oil and make-up, but at the same time, it will also destroy the sebum membrane, so it is not recommended to use cleansing oil every day if it is in a plain state. If the living environment is seriously polluted, you can wipe your skin with cleanser before cleansing, which is much less harmful to your skin than cleansing oil.
3. "No foam cleanser is too weak to clean oily skin."
it is absolutely impossible to judge the cleaning strength of a cleansing product, but from the perspective of foam, we should comprehensively observe the product formula, that is to say, if the foam-free cleansing uses strong surfactant or soap base, the skin will feel fresh after washing.
4. "Cosmetics can replenish water to the skin, so you must use the best and most expensive ones."
The main use of lotion is not to replenish water, because the swelling space of cells is limited, and the use of lotion can only soften cutin, which will add points to the skin's absorption of subsequent skin care products, so cosmetic water containing water-soluble ingredients has this effect.
5. It is true that young skin should be well moisturized, but at the same time, it should also take into account the demand for anti-oxidation. The latest dermatological theory suggests that anti-aging should start from a very young age, and the key to anti-aging is to prevent free radicals from invading the skin, so even young skin is advised to use anti-aging products containing antioxidant components.
6. "When the skin is particularly bad, you can improve it by doing more masks."
when the skin is unstable, the barrier function of epidermis will be weakened, so it is best not to carry out intensive maintenance at this time, such as mask, scrub or strong acid skin rejuvenation products. Not only can this not make the skin recover quickly, but it may also cause skin lesions and inflammation.
2. Correct steps of skin care
1. Cleanser or facial cleanser
Cleaning is always the first step of skin care. Clean the dirt on the face. If the cleaning is not thorough, the skin will easily become dry, rough and coarse. Correct cleansing steps: wet your face with warm water, take a proper amount of cleansing products in your hands and rub them with your hands to make rich foam; Especially for the T-shaped part that is easy to get oil, don't rub it directly, but massage it; Then rinse with clean water; Immediately dry the face with a towel, and finally spray mineral water on the face, and then dry it with a towel again.
2. Toner
plays an important role in cleaning and shrinking pores. Toner can't replace moisturizer. Its main function is to adjust the skin, not moisturize it, so it should be used after cleaning.
3. Muscle lotion
After cleaning and toning, the skin needs a bottle of muscle lotion to lay a good foundation
4. Essence
After using muscle lotion, use essence, and before using lotion and cream
5. After using the essence, you can apply lotion or cream, if it is oily skin.
6. sunscreen lotion
7. SPF3 is generally used when going out in summer, and SPF5 times if going to the seaside. Choose a physical sunscreen with a low SPF in winter. Sunscreen products below SPF3 can effectively isolate more than 9% ultraviolet rays.
