There are many ways to make facial masks with vegetables. Currently, many people have made some folk remedies, but many people do not know much about applying facial masks with vegetables, so they just follow the trend and develop the habit of applying facial masks every day. If you use cucumber to apply facial masks every day, is it good for the skin? Are there any side effects? The editor below can explain it. In the eyes of many people, applying cucumber on the face is a classic and timeless beauty and hydrating trick. In fact, doing so will not only fail to achieve a cosmetic effect, but may sometimes even have the opposite effect. Cucumber has a water content of 96% to 98% and is rich in vitamin E and cucumber enzyme. It can refine pores, promote metabolism, and dilate skin capillaries. This is why it is used as the main ingredient in many skin care products. Unfortunately, applying cucumber slices on your face does not perform the above functions well. Because there is a dew-like sticky substance on the cut surface of the freshly cut cucumber slices, which hinders the skin's absorption of the cucumber's effective ingredients. If you don't apply any skin care products after washing your face and directly apply cucumber slices on your face, it will only cause your skin to become tight, dry and wrinkled. In addition, many fruits and vegetables, including cucumbers, may increase skin moisture in a short period of time when applied directly to the face, but will be "returned to their original form" after 10 minutes, which means that the moisture is not absorbed. If used for a long time, the dehydrated and tight face will develop various problems such as dryness, wrinkles, darkening of skin tone, etc. The truly effective way to use cucumber for beauty care is to squeeze the juice and mix it with honey, milk, etc. and apply it on your face. But compared to fruit and vegetable hydrating masks, the most effective way to replenish water is to drink water. You should drink 250 ml of water every day after getting up early, at 10 a.m., 3 p.m., and 1 hour before going to bed to ensure adequate water in the body. You can also add some lemon to the water, which is rich in vitamin C and is very effective in maintaining skin elasticity. Applying cucumber on the face definitely has its pros and cons. After the editor’s explanation, I believe everyone can understand that nothing should be used in excess, and the skin also needs to breathe. If you apply something on your skin for a long time, it will easily cause pores to become clogged, which will then lead to more skin diseases, so you should also pay attention to the time when taking care of your skin. |
