Pay attention to the following points in summer skin care:
Clean skin: In summer, sweat and sebum secretion increase, and metabolites on the skin surface increase. Excessive sweat leads to decreased skin acidity and weakened disease resistance, which most easily leads to various skin surface infections, resulting in folliculitis and furuncle. Coupled with the high temperature, prickly heat and summer dermatitis will appear on the skin. Therefore, in the hot summer, the most important thing to protect the skin is to keep the skin clean and take a bath regularly to avoid excessive sweat and secretions irritating the skin.
Appropriate use of acidic lotion, do not use too much toilet water, pay attention to sun protection and wrinkle resistance.
Pay attention to sun protection: In hot summer and sunny days, too much ultraviolet rays from the sun do great harm to the skin. Although ultraviolet rays can kill bacteria on the skin surface, too strong ultraviolet rays will destroy skin cells, make the blood vessels on the skin surface dilate and congest, and even cause cell edema and exudation, leading to skin diseases such as skin cancer.
In summer, long-term ultraviolet radiation enhances the instinctive defense function of the skin, and a large number of pigment particles gather in the basal cell layer of the epidermis to resist ultraviolet radiation, which leads to dark skin color, which is called "tanning". So in summer, people's skin looks darker, especially women, and there are often many pigment spots on their faces. Freckles and chloasma have also become more obvious, which has a great influence on their appearance. Therefore, when you go out in summer, you must remember to take care of your skin. You can wear a sun hat and apply sunscreen lotion to exposed parts. Therefore, we should try to avoid outdoor activities under the scorching sun, or sunbathe before noon and at 3 pm for no more than 2 hours.
Replenish moisture: due to the rising temperature in summer, skin moisture is easy to evaporate. In order to keep your skin moist, drink enough water. In air-conditioned rooms, you should use moisturizing skin care products and drink plenty of water, which can also effectively avoid skin drying and aging due to lack of water. After cleansing, you can apply some nourishing cream, or cover it with cucumber and apple slices. You can also make some fruit, honey and milk masks and use them 1-2 times a week to keep your skin fair and moist.
Avoid mosquito bites and get enough sleep: this is the biggest headache on summer nights. These small insects not only affect sleep, but also spread diseases and cause various skin injuries. Therefore, it is very necessary to keep the room clean. At the same time, you can spray an appropriate amount of pesticides. It should be used when no one is at home. Avoid the harm of pesticides to human body.
Eat a light diet and increase the intake of vitamins and protein.
