A skin problem: sensitivity and allergy.
In winter, our skin seems to be more and more fragile. More and more women are troubled by skin sensitivity or allergy when changing seasons. Whether it is dryness, chapped skin, peeling skin, or more serious eczema symptoms such as redness and itching, it undoubtedly brings us and our skin a strong sense of discomfort, and even has a long-term adverse effect on skin health.
Solution 1: appease sensitivity
Once the skin is sensitive or even allergic, the first thing to do is to stop using the existing skin care products and cleansing products, and then it is best to use hot spring water spray at room temperature for daily cleaning, use cleaning products without soap and surfactant, and switch to skin care products with very simple ingredients designed for sensitive skin. After the sensitive phenomena and allergic symptoms are greatly reduced or disappeared, other products are slowly added to protect the skin.
Solution 2: Dry cooling treatment.
Studies have found that skin is more susceptible to irritation under extreme dryness and water shortage and extreme climate. Therefore, winter is the season of high incidence of sensitive skin, and the ingredients with moisturizing effect in products become very important. Don't reject a cream just because it is rich in texture. Only when the skin is effectively moisturized can it maintain its best state, become soft and smooth, reduce its response to internal and external stimuli, and reduce the chance of sensitivity.
Second, skin problems: red blood.
In autumn and winter, it is easy for us to suddenly enter the hot indoor environment from the dry and cold outdoor environment (or vice versa), and some women's faces will turn red soon. This is because people with sensitive skin are easily affected by this rapid vasodilation. Generally speaking, the red color will disappear automatically soon, but if it is often stimulated by this environmental change, or the skin itself is fragile, the symptoms of blushing will turn into embarrassing red blood.
Solution: red blood silk special effects products.
Products specially designed for bloodshot skin contain some special vitamins, such as vitamin K and vitamin A aldehyde, which can protect our fragile blood vessels and reduce facial redness by promoting blood vessel microcirculation. There will also be some therapeutic hot spring water to calm and cool the hot skin. More intimately, anti-bloodshot products containing spf are usually light green, which can neutralize the redness of red bloodshot and visually remove the redness.
Three major skin problems: deepening wrinkles
Why do wrinkles on the face look more obvious in winter? In fact, the main reason is water shortage. This kind of water shortage is not only caused by low temperature, because in winter, the factor that is more likely to cause skin water shortage than cold is the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor. This frequent temperature change will slowly gnaw away the natural water barrier of the skin and slowly lose moisture. Under normal circumstances, the skin will adapt to the environment, but if the environment (temperature and humidity) changes frequently, the skin will become at a loss. The deepening and increasing of wrinkles is the first sign of skin dehydration, just like the wrinkled skin of dried fruits.
Solution 1: Choose products designed for cold climate.
Because our own sebum membranes are not so "smart", it is very necessary for us to choose a "smart moisturizing cream" for them to relieve dryness and prevent wrinkles from deepening and increasing due to drying and dehydration. Plants that can survive in harsh environments have become the research objects of many brands, and the plant extracts from them can give skin "intelligent moisturizing ability": for example, Kadaf, a magical African plant with clarins hair style, Yemenian desert rose with Guerlain hair style, and chestnut tree with Estee Lauder hair style (which only grows in the dry and cold Arabian Peninsula).
Solution 2: add neck cream.
The neck and chest are two very sensitive areas, and the skin of the neck is particularly easy to relax due to the constant pulling of head activities. Moreover, nowadays fashionable women also show their necks and chests in winter, so they are often exposed to the sun. This part of the already thin skin is more fragile, which will lead to the premature appearance and relaxation of these skin wrinkles. Because the skin structure of the neck and chest is different from that of the face, wrinkles are produced in different ways (the neck is round wrinkles), so it is not enough to use cream only. In this winter, you should prepare a special neck cream for yourself to come to prevent wrinkles.
Four major skin problems: hard skin on hands and feet
Cold makes us look like enemies: skin oil condenses, pH changes, and blood circulation enters an anti-freezing state-blood vessels contract and heat internal tissues. The direct consequence is that skin metabolism slows down, nutrients decrease, dead skin naturally falls off slowly, and dead skin accumulates on the skin surface in winter. The edges of nails and the hard skin of feet are particularly obvious in winter.
Solution: Gently exfoliate
Of course, it's best to go to a nail salon and let a professional manicurist remove the hard skin on his hands and feet. But you can also exfoliate yourself at home. Apply thick hand/foot cream, then wrap it with microwave plastic wrap, then gently push off the dead skin with a special exfoliating stick, and finally apply hand/foot cream, and you're done.
Five skin problems: chapped lips
If the lips are dry or even cracked, there is no charm in winter makeup. Because the cuticle of the lips is thinner than the face, there is almost no sebum protection, and the lips move frequently, the ability of this part of the skin to resist foreign invasion is very low. Low temperature, cold wind and indoor and outdoor temperature changes lead to cracking and dryness, which directly leads to aggravation of inflammation.
Solution 1: Never lick it with your tongue.
You think that licking your tongue can moisten dry lips, but in fact saliva will take away more water from your lips when it evaporates. Another disadvantage of this action is that it will take away the natural protective ingredients of the lips and change the ph value.
Solution 2: Carry lip balm with you.
Nourishing and recuperating is an unchangeable truth. We choose wax lipstick, which is rich in lipids and vitamin E and can resist free radicals. People with extremely dry and fragile lips should choose lip balm containing vitamins and wound healing ingredients. It is recommended to apply a thick lip mask at night to protect your charming lips all night.
Solution 3: Take more vitamin B group.
A small amount of vitamin B in the body can also cause chapped lips, so it is best to eat more eggs, beans, whole wheat, animal liver, fish, dairy products, malt and other food with meals.
Skin problem: dry and itchy body.
In winter, in order to keep warm, the whole body's skin will be covered with heavy clothes, and the exposed skin will be less, so we often neglect the maintenance of the body. However, if you find that the skin under the layers of packages is itchy, you can't do nothing anymore, because this is a distress signal from the skin: "We are too tight and uncomfortable. In recent years, tights, feet pants and legging with visual slimming effect have become popular, but these clothes are sometimes too tight, which will hinder the breathing of the body and skin. There are many cases of dryness, dandruff and itching caused by colds at home. Many experts believe that the biggest friction between these clothes and the skin is the outside of knees and thighs. In order to protect the skin, it will not only produce redundant dead skin cells, but also touch the nerve endings on the epidermis, making you itch unbearable.
Solution: Give more oil to the skin.
Taking a hot bath and using bath products with strong cleaning power will directly lead to physical dryness. If you like to take a bath, it is recommended to add bath oil to soften the water first. For shower gel, we recommend oily shower gel. Its rich texture and protective ingredients can effectively calm the skin. Be sure to apply body lotion after bathing. Essential oil products are also very good, because they not only have their own effective ingredients, but also help to deeply introduce the oil of body milk. It is best to mix a few drops of essential oil into body lotion for use. Recommend rose essential oil with anti-inflammatory and moisturizing effects.
