How to hydrate scientifically correctly
Everyone longs for skin that can be broken by blowing bombs, and Baoyu once said in "Dream of the Red Chamber" that women are made of water, which now seems to have a scientific basis. In fact, both men and women need moisture to have bright skin. It was once thought that endocrine disorders were the root cause of skin aging, but the latest research shows that dehydration is the biggest culprit of skin aging. This can lead to a range of problems such as rough, dull skin, wrinkles and pigmentation. Therefore, the most important step in skin beauty is to hydrate.
Hydration, you need to know
When hydration works best
Morning and evening hydration works well, but the best time to hydrate is in the early morning. Because during sleep, the skin will evaporate about 200 ml of water, and during sleep, they rarely drink water to replenish water. Therefore, in the morning, the skin is in a state of physiological dehydration, and it is best to absorb the hydration at this time.
The correct posture to use the toner
Many people like to pour the toner directly on their hands and then snap it on the skin of the face, in fact, this does not help to absorb. In addition, if the hands are not clean enough, it will also cause pollution.
The right way to do this is:
Soak the cotton pad with a sufficient amount of toner to ensure that both sides are fully infiltrated;
Allow the toner to penetrate into the skin in a gentle patting manner;
If you want to take care of the corners of the nose and other wings, the cotton pad is obviously better controlled than the fingers;
The lotion begins with the cheeks or eyes that are prone to dryness on the face and gently spreads along the muscle directions.
Hydrate and moisturize before bedtime
Night is the best time for the skin's metabolism, when the skin's blood vessels are fully open and blood can reach the skin fully. Under the supply of blood, the skin repairs itself and regenerates itself, which can prevent and delay aging, so sleeping is the best beauty recipe! Before going to bed, the use of cream-like moisturizers or deep moisturizers can be a good way to hydrate and promote skin repair.
There are several common misconceptions about hydration
1. Hydration and moisturizing silly distinction is not clear
Hydration and moisturization are not reciprocal. Hydration is done by directly increasing the water content of stratum corneum cells, thereby improving the microcirculation of skin cells and making the skin moisturized. Moisturizing, on the other hand, locks in the skin's moisture through a barrier action to prevent the skin from losing moisture too quickly. Therefore, it is not enough to treat dry and dehydrated skin only to moisturize, what we have to do is to first hydrate and then moisturize. It only makes sense to make sure that the moisture in the skin is sufficient and then moisturized.
2. Apply a mask every day
The mask is applied daily to fully replenish the skin's moisture. Masks are a good hydrating product that satisfies the skin's basic nutritional requirements and stimulates the skin's maximum vitality. However, applying a mask every day will cause a burden on the skin, but it is easy to make the skin sensitive and fragile. Mask application time is usually about 20 minutes. If the application time is too long, the skin will not only not be able to absorb the nutrients in the mask, but will make the mask that has dried up "regurgitate" and absorb the original moisture of the skin, so that the skin becomes dry again.
3. Oily skin is not hydrated
Oily skin oil is more secretive, and some people think that oily skin does not need hydration. In fact, the facial skin produces a lot of oil, in large part because the skin does not achieve water and oil balance. The skin is dehydrated, so self-regulation "locks in water" by secreting a lot of oil. If the secretion of oil is too strong, it means that the water loss is too fast and too much, and it is more necessary to replenish the water.
4. No need for hydration in summer
Summer air humidity, skin is also relatively greasy, many people think that summer does not need to hydrate, in fact, this idea and oily skin is not hydrated similar, to maintain the balance of water and oil in summer also need to hydrate and moisturize.
Use spray lotion
Many people find that the phenomenon of dry and fragile skin with long-term use of spray lotion has not improved, and it seems to be worsening. This is because spraying a spray lotion on dry air, the moisture evaporates quickly, and it is taken away along with the moisture inside the skin. In fact, a careful reading of the description of the spray lotion can be found that the main role of this product is anti-allergic soothing.
These are common myths about the tips for hydration. To sum up, first hydration, and then moisturizing, is the real way to hydrate, oily skin needs more hydration, mask time needs to be properly controlled, excessive will cause anti-absorption of skin moisture • Summer also needs to be hydrated, do not misuse spray lotion.
