Redness on face after hydration

Many people's skin often encounters some physical problems due to long-term dehydration. For example, the skin is too dry due to dehydration, and redness and stinging after being exposed to the sun due to dehydration. Especially when many people have just started to moisturize, because the skin cannot adapt to such a moisturizing environment in an instant, redness will suddenly appear on the face. At this time, many factors can be considered, and the correct way to replenish water must be learned.

1. Reasons for redness and stinging on the face after using moisturizing products

1. Long-term dehydration of facial skin

If you do not hydrate your skin for a long time and keep it in a dehydrated and dry state for a long time, the skin's absorption channels will be basically blocked, and the skin will be in an unstable state due to excessive dehydration. If you moisturize the skin at this time, it will easily stimulate the skin's absorption channels, so redness and stinging may appear on the face.

2. Excessive cleansing, resulting in small wounds on the skin

Some friends like to use scrub-type cleansers when washing their faces. Improper use or excessive friction will cause small wounds on the skin. When moisturizing, if the moisturizing product irritates a small wound, the skin will feel a slight tingling sensation. If the wound is larger, the skin will become red.

3. Allergic to the ingredients of the hydrating products used

If the moisturizing products you use contain irritating ingredients, they may irritate your skin and cause redness and stinging.

4. Damaged skin barrier

Some friends have damaged facial skin barrier. If they use some high-intensity moisturizing products before it is repaired to a certain extent, the skin will be easily irritated, which will manifest as redness, stinging and other discomforts on the face.

2. What should I do if my face becomes red and stinging after hydrating ?

1. Use pure water to apply a water mask to replenish water

If your skin has not been hydrated for a long time and is dehydrated, it is recommended that you use purified water and a compressed mask to apply a water mask every day. After about a week of use, the skin's absorption channels can be opened, allowing dry and uncomfortable skin to return to a calm state.

2. Reduce the purity of skin care products

If your skin suddenly uses moisturizing products after being dehydrated for a long time, the skin will easily be unable to withstand the concentration of the product, and some excessive reactions will occur on the skin. Therefore, when using moisturizing products such as toner, you can dilute toner and purified water in a ratio of 3:1. This will reduce the concentration of the product and will not cause greater irritation to the skin.

3. Choose gentle hydrating products

When replenishing water after long-term dehydration, you must choose a mild hydrating product that does not contain any irritating ingredients. Rehydrate in a gradual manner and relieve dry skin to improve the condition of skin redness and stinging.

4. Use special repair products to repair damaged skin barrier

Thinning of the stratum corneum and skin sensitivity caused by improper acquired skin care are manifestations of damaged skin barrier. In this regard, you should choose products specifically for repairing the damaged skin barrier to repair the damaged barrier and enhance the skin's ability to resist external stimuli. This will effectively improve the redness and stinging caused by the thin and sensitive stratum corneum of the skin.
