2. Understanding of beauty and skin care
Dry skin is more prone to aging
Qian Fang, a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine and deputy director of Shenzhen Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said that the quality of skin is mainly affected by internal and external factors. Inherent genetic inheritance is mainly related to skin quality. For example, oily skin is less prone to aging than dry skin. Dry skin, white and red, thin and tender, with no obvious pores and no greasy appearance, looks clean and beautiful, and is not prone to acne, but it will cause redness, even burning pain or chaff-like dandruff, and it is easy to wrinkle. Oily skin is thick, with obvious pores, and looks like small spots on orange peel, and it is greasy and shiny. This kind of skin is prone to acne and acne, but it is not easy to wrinkle. Neutral skin belongs to oily and dry skin, which is neither prone to acne nor aging.
the influence of external environment includes natural aging and photoaging. Natural aging refers to the physiological aging of the skin with the increase of age. Generally speaking, 2-27 years old will maintain the best skin appearance. After 3 years old, the skin will slowly lack elasticity, which is due to the decrease of hormone secretion, which makes the skin look rough and dull. This phenomenon will be more obvious in menopause.
photoaging refers to skin aging caused by excessive ultraviolet radiation. High-energy ultraviolet rays can drive straight into the deeper layer of the skin, destroying the antioxidant capacity of normal cells, and at the same time causing lipid oxidation, producing too many free radicals, directly or indirectly affecting the normal function of the skin and making the skin age early. The specific manifestations are dry skin, lack of water, pigmentation, wrinkles, and individual skin diseases.
Other factors include that the cold, hot and excessively dry air affects the normal breathing of the skin, causing the skin to lose too much water and aging; Air conditioning or central heating dehydrates the skin, resulting in peeling and dandruff. Abnormal work and rest schedule and diet will also affect the skin, such as uncertain sleep time, physical and mental overwork, stress, love of spicy food, addiction to tobacco and alcohol, etc. will have adverse effects on the skin.
In addition, improper use and maintenance of cosmetics also affect the skin. When using cosmetics and skin care products, many people ignore the requirements of personal skin quality, and use inappropriate skin care products, which increases the load on the skin, causes poor metabolism of the skin or causes skin diseases, which will lead to premature aging of the skin in the long run. Failure to clean the skin timely and properly, such as incomplete makeup removal and cleaning, will cause dirt accumulation on the skin, hinder the metabolism of the skin, and cause premature aging of the skin.
Don't go astray when using sunscreen
Photoaging is the main external factor that affects the skin. The ultraviolet spectrum in sunlight is in the wavelength range of 1-4 nm, which can be divided into three bands, namely, short-wave ultraviolet (UVC) with the wavelength of 1-29 nm, medium-wave ultraviolet (UVB) with the wavelength of 29-32 nm and long-wave ultraviolet (UVA) with the wavelength of 32-4 nm.
different wavelengths of ultraviolet rays have different depths of penetration into the skin. UVC is reflected and absorbed by stratum corneum, and only a small part penetrates into the superficial layer of epidermis. When UVC passes through the atmosphere, it is mostly absorbed by the ozone layer and can't reach the earth's surface, which basically does not harm human skin. Most of UVB is absorbed by epidermis, and a small part reaches the superficial dermis, which is the main wave band of skin damage and carcinogenic, but it can be blocked by thick clouds, clothes and glass. A small part of UVA is absorbed by epidermis, and most of UVA can penetrate into dermis, reaching to the middle of dermis. UVA reaches the earth's surface 1 times more than UVB at noon in summer, and can penetrate the epidermis to cause dermal damage. Therefore, UVA is the main ultraviolet pathogenic spectrum, so UVA must be prevented in summer.
sun protection is the best way to maintain your skin daily. However, in daily life, women have many misunderstandings about the use of sunscreen. They think that the higher the SPF, the better the protective effect.
