How to effectively perform blackhead skin care on skin with severe acne? Probably many girls' answers are: use clean mud mask.
However, this kind of cleansing skin care products often occurs in two-stage differentiation when used: the effect is significant or almost no effect, and the serious may even cause skin sensitivity.
With the same product, why does this phenomenon occur, is it really a product that is not suitable? "How to use cleaning mud mask effectively?" Today we will elaborate.
Use of clean mud mask
Before we start cleaning up, we need to be clear that "deep cleansing" doesn't mean deep cleaning of dirt inside pores. The cleansing mud mask we use cleans the grease and dirt at the opening of the skin's pores and reduces the appearance of blackheads.
In fact, the blackhead acne in the pores may be more slender and deeply rooted. What the mud film can adsorb is only the black head of the surface of the pore. If you want to thoroughly purify pores, clean skin care needs to be done for a long time.
Next, we will talk in detail about how to use the cleaning mud film correctly.
Cleanse before use.
Before cleaning the mud mask, the first thing to do is to wash your face. After completing the basic cleansing of the face, we may see that on the skin where acne is concentrated, such as the nose wings and chin, there are white particles bubbling out, and the blackheads on the nose also have a bulging appearance. At this time, a cleaning mud film can be applied to achieve a better adsorption cleaning effect.
We can also use a hot towel or a steamer after washing our face to open the pores and moderately soften the acne to achieve better adsorption.
In the skin area with severe blackheads, before cleaning the mask, you can use the blackhead export liquid or apply an acid mask to export more blackheads rooted deep in the pores, and the cleaning effect is better.
The above three items are prepared before cleaning the mud mask, and washing the face is a must. The other two can be performed depending on the state of the skin.
Apply a mud mask.
When applying a clean mud mask to your face, it is crucial to apply it evenly and in sufficient amounts. Many girls are worried about the irritation of the mud film, and only apply a thin layer on the skin. In fact, this will not only achieve the purpose of cleaning, but also may aggravate the discomfort of dry skin.
During the adsorption of the mud film, the water evaporates gradually dry out. If the dosage is too small, the surface water of the skin is taken away during drying, and it is easy to cause the problem of skin redness and skin after use.
Therefore, when applying mud mask, it is advisable to cover the skin color as much as possible. Try to ensure that the thickness of the mud film is consistent and the drying time is the same. In addition, when applying, it is necessary to avoid skin positions with weak stratum corneum such as the eye area and the lip area.
The use time of cleaning mud film is generally 5-15 minutes, and the specific instructions for use of the product shall prevail. When the surface of the mud film is dry and solidified, we are ready to clean. It should be noted that the longer the mud mask is applied, the better the cleaning effect. The cleansing ingredients used in some products have a strong ability to absorb oil and oil, and cover the skin for too long, which will cause the skin barrier to be damaged.
Skin care after use.
In the process of cleaning the mud film, you can first completely wet the mud film with water, and then use a cleansing towel or rinse it by hand. When cleaning the mud film, some people are accustomed to rubbing the wet mud film to have a stronger cleaning effect. However, this way, for skin with thin stratum corneum, is more likely to cause irritation, or it is necessary to try it with caution.
After the mud mask is cleaned, we can use a acne needle to gently scrape away the acne that appears on the surface of the skin. It is important to note that vigorous squeezing should not be squeezed vigorously when cleaning with acne needles. As mentioned at the beginning, the blackhead acne in the pores of the skin may be deeply rooted and difficult to completely remove at one time.
What we have to do is to clean up the acne that has emerged at the opening of the pores to avoid oxidation or other skin problems. Squeezing the blackheads in the pores vigorously may be able to clear out some of the deep oil in the pores, but for the damage to the tissues within the skin, the surface skin barrier damage is more serious.
After using the cleansing mask, the skin is desperately needed to repair and moisturize the skin. Even if the mud mask is milder, the skin may feel dry and tight after use, and it is key to hydrate the skin in time.
We can use a mask that focuses on hydrating and soothing properties to treat dry skin cuticles. After applying the mask, it is combined with a soothing serum and a moisturizing and repairing cream to stabilize the skin's temporarily disturbing barrier structure. On the day of cleansing, try to avoid using other functional products to avoid irritation to fragile skin.
Usually clean skin care, we can do it 1-2 times a week. In the 1-2 days after cleaning the skin care, you may feel that the amount of oil on the surface of the skin increases, because the pores are unclogged, so this is also a relatively normal phenomenon.
However, if the oil is accompanied by dryness and redness of the epidermis, or even tingling, it is likely that the skin barrier is damaged. In this case, we must take a repair and moisturizing skin care and avoid using skin care products that irritate the barrier.
