Can cold water wash your face for beauty?

Generally speaking, in the process of washing cold noodles, it can improve the nutritional structure of skin tissue, enhance the elasticity of skin, eliminate or alleviate facial wrinkles, and has a certain cosmetic effect.

But for most people, especially those with oily skin, if you wash your face with cold water for a long time, your pores will shrink because of "sexual coldness" and you can't clean the dirt such as sebum, dust and cosmetic residue accumulated on your face. Not only can it not achieve the beauty effect, but it is also easy to cause skin diseases such as acne and affect beauty.

The correct way to wash our face for beauty should be like this!

Correct skin cleansing should be clean and not damage the skin, which is the basis of skin care and beauty. Proper water temperature is an important condition for cleaning skin. The water temperature is too cold and too hot to nourish the skin.

Too cold water (below 20℃) has astringent effect on the skin, which can exercise the skin and make people feel refreshed. However, washing the skin with too cold water for a long time will shrink the blood vessels of the skin, make the skin pale and withered, reduce the secretion of sebaceous glands and sweat glands, and lose elasticity, leading to premature aging of the skin, which is not good for skin nourishment.

Too high water temperature (above 38℃) can relieve pain and dilate capillaries on the skin, but frequent use will defat the skin, weaken the vitality of blood vessel wall, lead to the expansion of skin pores and make the skin easy to relax and wrinkle.

The water temperature should be around 34℃, slightly higher than the skin temperature, but lower than the body temperature. If you try it by hand, you will feel warm, but you will not feel hot. This warm water can not only clean the skin, but also has a calming effect on the skin, which is conducive to the rest of the skin and relieve fatigue, and does no harm to the skin.

The correct way to wash your face should be to use warm water and cold water alternately.

That is, wash your face with warm water → apply facial cleanser (facial cleanser or soap, etc.). ) follow the facial muscle texture, and the time should not be too long, 3-4 minutes is appropriate → wash the cleanser with warm water → rinse the face with cold water.

Adopting this method of alternating warm water and cold water can not only clean the skin, but also expand and contract the superficial blood vessels of the skin, enhance the breathing of the skin, promote the blood circulation of the face, and achieve the beauty effect.
