Hi, I'm a koala who wants to be beautiful with you.~
If asked: Which of the skincare steps is the most important? How would you answer that? Relieve skin tightness with toner? Improving skin problems with essences? Or do you apply a cream to keep your skin moisturized?
In fact, before this, there is a particularly inconspicuous but the most important skin care step: washing the face, many girls with skin problems, most of them are "planted" in the step of washing their faces.
Insisting on the wrong way of washing the face for a long time can lead to dry skin, imbalance of surface water and oil, and rough epidermis. The key to washing your face is not to wash it much cleaner, but to clean it moderately.
The purpose of our face washing is to wash away the dust and oil covering the surface of the skin, so that the skin can return to the clean state of "naked muscle" for subsequent skin care operations. However, this clean state does not mean dryness.
Many people think that if you wash your face clean, your skin should be dry and smooth. If you think of the skin as an oil-stained plate, then the skin must be able to squeak after washing the face to be considered a "qualified" face washing result.
But the truth is that the face is not an oil plate, and this criterion for judging that it is washed clean is a sign of excessive cleaning. Next, we will elaborate on how to wash your face properly.
Face washing technique
Usually when washing your face, do you do this: wash your face and milk in the palm of your hand, rub it back and forth a few times to make a foam, paste the foam on your face, rub it in a small circle, wash it carefully for a few minutes, and then rinse it with water.
The process looks completely fine, and it's clean after washing your face. But in this face-washing process, there are at least two signals of wrong face-washing.
1) The cleanser foams
The first thing we need to confirm is that unless there is no foam cleanser, other types of facial cleansers, foaming before the face is a key step. It is not because the more foam is washed, the cleaner it is, but to fully dissolve the surface activator in the body of the facial cleansing cream, and then contact the skin of the face to avoid the "clumping" of the surface activator.
So before the cleanser is put on the face, what we need to do is squeeze the paste into the palm of your hand, add a very small amount of water, dissolve the paste fully, and then rub it with both hands to make a cleansing foam and apply it to the face. This step can be operated directly by hand, and can also assist the cleanser or aerator, which is simpler and less labor-saving.
2) Foam paste on the face
All we need to do is spread the cleansing foam evenly over our face. In other words, before the cleansing foam is applied to the face, we can spread out the entire palm of our hands and then press a large area on the face.
3) Massage in circular motions
This is probably the common face washing method of many girls, with cleansing foam on the face rubbing, easy to grow acne parts may also increase the force, rubbing until the skin feels slightly crisp before stopping. This way of washing the face is very easy to break the sebaceous film and microbial barrier behavior.
When the cleansing foam touches the skin at the moment, it is already playing a cleansing role, this so-called rubbing massage skin behavior, but also only a physical friction we carry out on the surface of the skin, it is difficult to play a role in assisting the cleansing foam to clean more "good" cleaning, but it is easy to stimulate skin sensitivity, such as skin redness after washing the face, excessive dryness and tightness of the skin, etc.
During the washing process, we can press the cleansing foam on the face. Especially for cheek skin, try to avoid massaging in circular motions. For acne problems that highlight the skin, such as forehead, nose wings, etc., you can press multiple times, or gently rub a few times, the cleaning effect has been achieved.
4) Wash for a few minutes
For a long time before, a four-minute face wash was popular, and some people tried it for a while, and the skin condition became more and more sensitive. In fact, the time of cleansing is more appropriate to control within 30 seconds, and the longest should not exceed one minute.
Table activator for a long time in contact with the skin, coupled with a long period of kneading massage, and even the cleanser + rubbing massage of the face washing method, this set of face washing process down, the skin is really tossed enough. We must be clear that washing your face for a long time will not wash the skin acne less and less, but will only wash the skin more and more dry.
Precautions for washing your face
In addition to the above basic face washing techniques, there are a few points that are easy to ignore.
1) Water temperature
When washing our faces alone, our control of water temperature is still in place. However, girls who are accustomed to bathing and washing their faces at the same time must pay attention to the fact that the water temperature is too hot will add moisture to the skin and evaporate. Moreover, with the increase in the bathroom room temperature, the skin pores are open, and the skin state of the face is also relatively fragile. If the face wash is carried out at the same time, be sure to adjust the water temperature, wash your face clean, and then take a shower.
2) Frequency
Usually, our cleaning frequency is 2 times a day. However, these two face washes, you need to use cleansing products at night, and you can generally use water during the day. In addition, the dry skin quality, the frequency of cleansing at night with facial cleanser can also be adjusted, without going out to make up, every 2-3 days with a cleanser can be used, retain the skin itself to build a sebaceous film, to prevent the skin from excessive dryness.
The above correct face washing techniques, perhaps in the early stage of adjustment, you will feel that after washing your face, the skin surface seems to be covered with a thin oil film, it feels as if it has not been washed, but in fact, at this time, the skin is cleaned, and the state is just right.
If you insist on this for a week or so, you will obviously feel that the skin dryness and skin symptoms will be alleviated, the acne problem will not be aggravated, and the skin will be much more stable.
