3, the misunderstanding of beauty and skin care
Common mistake 1: Apply foundation before moisturizing cream dries out.
If the moisturizing cream is not fully absorbed by the skin, it will easily lead to mud rubbing, because the oily components of the moisturizing cream will make the makeup thinner and not fit, which will eventually affect the covering effect of the foundation all day.
The correct way: wait about 60 seconds for the moisturizing cream to be completely absorbed. If you are in a hurry, you can use a piece of facial tissue to absorb excess moisturizing cream and then apply foundation.
Common mistake 2: Maintenance often ignores the neck.
The skin on the neck is thinner and more sensitive than that on the face. At the same time, it is easy to change skin pigment, elasticity and texture. Neck lines are usually caused by skin aging and muscle sagging. The older you get, the more obvious your neck lines will be.
The correct way is 1: When applying sunscreen on your face, apply it all the way to your neck or even your chest. You should choose a refreshing sunscreen. Remember to remove makeup when using waterproof and oil-proof sunscreen.
Correct practice 2: Common creams and common care lotions can be used on the neck. But if the skin care products you use contain fruit acid or vitamin A, please test them on your neck first.
Common mistake 3: Use moisturizing cream to relieve eye edema.
Many factors can lead to fluid retention around the eyes, such as excessive salt intake in the diet. Do not use eye cream at this time. The hydrating ingredients in moisturizing cream and eye cream are used to keep the skin hydrated, so it will make your eyes more swollen.
The correct way is 1: If the skin around the eyes is swollen but not red, and there are no symptoms of pain or itching, apply it with cold compress or ice pack for 10 to 15 minutes. After that, you can apply some thinner eye gel containing caffeine.
Correct practice 2: If you feel red and swollen eyes accompanied by pain or itching, you should see a dermatologist immediately. This situation may be allergic skin rash.
Common mistake 4: Over-treatment of acne
As soon as the acne comes out, you start to use acne repair cream. After wiping, in order to consolidate the results, you decided to wipe it again. But did you know that most repair creams contain acidic ingredients, which will penetrate into the skin within a few hours after use? Excessive use can cause burns, redness, peeling and pain.
Correct practice 1: Follow the instructions on the packaging of maintenance products. Most products are marked to be used once or twice a day, and pay attention to moisturizing.
Correct way 2: Pay attention to the cleanliness of the skin, try to avoid wearing too much makeup during acne, use muddy exfoliating products, and don't use acidic skin rejuvenation products.
Common mistake 5: blindly face-lifting in the wrong way makes the face more and more square.
When you obviously don't gain weight, but have a double chin, it's because the fat begins to shift and pile up downwards, so the pointed chin gradually disappears and your face gradually presents a "regular triangle". At this time, blindly face-lifting will only make the relaxation more obvious, and Botox on the cheek just forms a concave hole, which is easy to lose weight and become a "skull face".
Most Asian women's faces tend to be baby fat, with a U-shaped round face and double chins close to the neck. Because of its special skull structure, the chin is always in a backward state, leaving more space for the surrounding skin tissue, where excess body fluids and fat cells accumulate. Therefore, it is particularly necessary to choose the correct face-lifting method:
The first step is to reverse the process of fat accumulation, reduce the volume of fat cells, and readjust facial compactness.
The second step is to promote facial body fluid microcirculation, eliminate edema and avoid facial edema.
The third step is helpful to promote the synthesis of elastin, strengthen the skin structure and restore the natural elasticity of the skin.
Common mistake 6: Moisturizing means constantly hydrating.
Many mm think that the skin is too short of water when the skin is dry and desquamation, so they must replenish water strongly and even make a mask every day. In fact, the effect of doing so will lead to excessive skin care. In fact, it is not simply because the skin is short of water and the epidermis feels dry. It is because the skin barrier is damaged or the natural moisturizing ingredients of the skin are lost, which leads to the decline of its moisturizing ability and the rapid loss of water.
The correct way: What we should do at this time is to repair the moisturizing barrier with some products that contain oil and have a repairing effect. In addition, we should pay attention to maintaining the humidity of the environment to prevent the water from losing too fast. After the skin barrier is restored, these conditions will naturally disappear. Note: However, when moisturizing, you should also pay attention. You can't say that moisturizing products are too thick just because the skin is dry. If you apply too much moisturizing lotion because you feel dry on your face, it will cause unnecessary burden to your skin. Oily skin will weaken its water-locking ability because of excessive hydration, resulting in water-oil imbalance, while dry skin will reduce its immunity because of too thick moisturizing cream, which has the opposite effect.
Common mistake 7: Wear heavy makeup to exercise.
Many MM will wear makeup to exercise, which is not recommended. As our body temperature rises with exercise, our pores will relax a little and then widen. Even if we use waterproof cosmetics, our makeup will still come off, and then your face will turn pale. Moreover, the skin needs to breathe during exercise, and the mixture of cosmetics and sweat will hinder the expansion and heat dissipation of pores, resulting in skin blockage, which will lead to many skin problems such as spots, acne and acne.
Correct practice 1: cleaning before exercise and simply applying skin care products will help the skin to be more comfortable during exercise. For example, choosing an emulsion suitable for your skin can speed up absorption, but greasy emulsion will fall off with sweat.
Correct practice 2: After exercise, you should also wipe the sweat off your face. It is recommended to use refreshing facial cleanser to avoid pulling the skin because of excessive cleaning, and then you can maintain the skin according to the usual maintenance procedures.
Common mistake 8: oily skin should choose products with strong degreasing ability.
Some MM desperately use soap-based and other strong alkaline cleansing products to wash their faces in summer, thinking that this can effectively "scrape" the oil. However, I never thought that this would damage the sebum membrane on the skin surface. If the sebum membrane is not perfect, sebaceous glands will accelerate the secretion of sebum, leading to more sebum spewing out of pores.
The correct way is 1: In fact, the real degreasing is not to wash your face desperately, but to control the oil fundamentally. The first thing to do is to replenish enough water to the skin and restore the balance of water and oil. You can choose a cleansing product with moisturizing effect to protect the grease protective film while cleaning. Then moisturize the skin with moisturizing emulsion that can replenish water and lock water, and also use some products containing acidic skin rejuvenation ingredients to reduce oil production.
Correct way 2: To keep the skin fresh, you can choose to use oil control products (such as kaolin, silicon salt, etc.) containing adsorption components. In addition, we should pay attention to our daily diet, try to avoid heavy taste and eat more light food.
