3, the misunderstanding of beauty and skin care
Common mistake 1: Apply foundation before moisturizing cream is dry.
If you don't wait for the moisturizing cream to be fully absorbed by the skin, it will easily lead to mud rubbing, because the oily component of the moisturizing cream will make the makeup face thinner and not fit, and ultimately affect the covering effect of the foundation all day.
The correct way: wait about 60 seconds for the moisturizing cream to be fully 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 also prone to skin pigment, elasticity and texture changes. Neck lines are usually caused by aging skin and sagging muscles. The older you get, the more obvious the neck lines will be.
The correct way 1: When applying sunscreen on your face, apply it all the way to your neck or even your chest. Choose refreshing sunscreen. Remember to remove makeup from your neck when using waterproof and oil-proof sunscreen.
Correct practice 2: The commonly used face cream and ordinary care lotion 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. Don't use eye cream at this time. The hydrating ingredients in moisturizing cream and eye cream are used to keep moisture in the skin, so they will make your eyes more swollen.
The correct way 1: If the skin around the eyes is swollen but not red, and there are no symptoms of pain or itching, use a cold compress bag or an ice pack for 10 to 15 minutes. After that, you can apply some thin 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 broke out, you started to use acne repair cream. After wiping it, in order to consolidate the results, you decided to wipe it again. But do you know that most repair creams contain acidic ingredients, which will penetrate into the skin within a few hours after use. Excessive use will lead to burns, redness, peeling and pain.
Correct practice 1: Follow the instructions on the repair product package. Most products indicate that they should be used once or twice a day, and pay attention to moisturizing.
Correct practice 2: Pay attention to the cleanliness of the skin, try to avoid wearing too much makeup during acne, and use muddy exfoliating products instead of acidic rejuvenating products.
Common mistake five: blindly face-lifting in the wrong way to make your face more and more square.
When you obviously didn't gain weight, but there was a double chin, it was because the fat began to shift and pile up downwards, so the pointed chin gradually disappeared and the face gradually showed a "regular triangle". At this time, blindly face-lifting will only make the relaxation more obvious, and when Botox is applied to the cheek, it will just form a concave hole, and it is easy to lose weight and become a "skull face".
Most Asian women's faces generally tend to be baby fat, 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 tissues, 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 the face tightness.
The second step is to promote facial body fluid microcirculation, eliminate edema and avoid facial edema.
The third step helps 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.
When many MMs encounter dry skin and desquamation, they think that the skin is too short of water, and they must replenish water strongly, 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 should be done at this time is to repair the moisturizing barrier with some products containing oil and having 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, we should also pay attention to it. We can't say that moisturizing products are coated too thick because of dry skin. If you apply too much moisturizing lotion because you feel that your face is dry, 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: Go to exercise with heavy makeup.
Many MM will exercise with makeup, which is not recommended. As our body temperature rises with exercise, our pores will be slightly relaxed and then widened. Even if we use makeup with waterproof function, our makeup will still take 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, causing skin blockage, and then form spots, acne, acne and many skin problems.
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 a lotion suitable for your skin can speed up absorption, but greasy emulsions will fall off with sweat.
Correct practice 2: After exercise, you should also clean the sweat on your face. It is recommended to use refreshing facial cleanser so as not to pull your skin because of excessive cleaning, and then you can maintain your skin according to your usual maintenance procedures.
Common mistake 8: oily skin should choose products with strong fat removal.
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 practice would damage the sebum membrane on the surface of the skin. If the sebum membrane is not perfect, sebaceous glands will accelerate the secretion of sebum, leading to more sebum gushing out of pores.
The correct way 1: In fact, the real oil removal is not to wash your face desperately, but to control the oil fundamentally. The first thing to do is to replenish sufficient moisture to the skin to restore the water-oil balance. You can choose a cleansing product with moisturizing effect to protect the oil protective film while cleaning. Then, moisturize the skin with moisturizing emulsion that can replenish water and lock water, and also use some products containing acid rejuvenation ingredients to reduce the oil output.
Correct practice 2: To keep the skin fresh, you can choose to use oil control products containing adsorption components (such as kaolin, silicon salt, etc.). In addition, we should pay attention to our daily diet, and try to avoid heavy taste and eat more light food.
