Skin "overturns in seasons"? You must know the misunderstandings of using these masks!

Mask occupies an important position in the process of skin care, but there are many matters that need attention in its use. Some misunderstandings in details, such as too long application time and inappropriate selection of ingredients, may have adverse effects on our skin health.

Today, let's understand and avoid these misunderstandings with Xiaobian. Give full play to the skin care effect of the mask in this season change period, so that the skin can always be moist and good.

Frequent use of mask will make the skin fall into a state of excessive hydration, just as the skin is soaked in water for a long time and excessively absorbs water. In particular, the patch mask creates a closed environment on the skin, and it is soaked in the mask liquid, which greatly enhances the hydration, causing the epidermis of the skin to absorb too much water. If this continues for a long time, the skin barrier will be destroyed, and the defense ability against external stimuli will also be reduced, which is likely to lead to dermatitis or sensitive muscle.

Therefore, Xiaobian suggests that the number of mask applications should be controlled at 2 to 3 times a week. If you want to effectively relieve dry skin, daily moisturizing work is essential. You can apply an appropriate amount of lotion or cream many times to keep your skin moist.

Of course, you can also add emollient oil to the skin care steps, use oil to nourish the skin to relieve dry skin, or consider seeking help from professional institutions, such as radio frequency repair. In this way, the moisture degree of skin can be improved more easily during the dry period of the changing seasons.

Some friends may think like this: "How pity is it to wash off the essence after applying the mask? Just wait for the essence to absorb itself without washing your face." But this is not the case.

When the essence in the mask gradually evaporates on the face, it will not only take away the original moisture of the skin, but also give the facial skin a sticky and airtight feeling. In such an environment, it is easy to promote acne growth or make skin more sensitive.

Therefore, after applying the mask, it is recommended to clean the face with clean water in time, completely remove the residual mask liquid on the face, and then apply moisturizing lotion to "lock" the moisture of the skin and keep the skin tender and comfortable for a long time.

Although the essence in the mask is rich in nutrients, the skin has absorbed sufficient nutrients in the process of applying the mask. If the remaining essence stays on the face for a long time, especially for those masks containing macromolecular ingredients or thickeners, it is easy to block pores.

If you don't wash your face after applying the mask, and directly carry out subsequent skin care steps (such as applying essence, lotion or cream), it is likely to affect the absorption effect of these products. Because the residue on the face may hinder the absorption of skin care products, especially for people with oily skin or combination skin, this feeling may be more pronounced.

1. Mask is not necessary for skin care. If you expect your skin to be tender and elastic, it will be more effective to do a good job in moisturizing and skin care daily.

2. During the application of the mask, you can gently massage the face to promote the nutrients in the mask to be better absorbed by the skin. Of course, you can also choose to stay still and let the mask play its full role. The specific massage time and the time to stay still can be adjusted according to the product description.

3. The frequency of applying mask should be based on individual skin type and mask products. Generally speaking, it is more appropriate to apply mask 1 to 3 times a week. Applying masks too frequently may cause excessive irritation to the skin, which can lead to skin damage.

4. If there is severe acne or facial sensitivity, it is not recommended to apply a mask to relieve skin discomfort. At this time, you should go to a professional institution for treatment as soon as possible.

5. When the face is red and hot, it is not recommended to use the mask to cool down quickly, because the sharp change of temperature difference at this time will cause secondary damage to the skin, thus aggravating the sensitivity.

Understanding and avoiding misunderstandings in the use of masks is very important for maintaining skin health. At this time of season change, make sure your skincare steps are both scientific and effective, so that the mask really works as it should.

Here, Xiaobian encourages everyone to review their mask usage habits and think about whether there is anything that can be improved.
