What is the effect of applying enema to the face

The original purpose of enema is to soften stool and stimulate the intestinal wall, thereby inducing the body's reflex bowel movement. It is an effective topical preparation for treating constipation. Its main ingredients are glycerin, mannitol and magnesium sulfate. For many years, people have used enema to relieve constipation, wipe their hands and faces, and use it as a skin care oil. So is this practice correct from a scientific point of view?

The answer is yes, enema can be used on the face and can be used for a long time without any worries. It is absolutely safe. Since the main ingredient of enema is glycerin (propylene glycol), it has a significant effect in preventing skin from drying out. But one thing to note is that if you have oily skin, it is best not to use enema to wipe your face, otherwise it will easily clog your pores and cause skin allergies.

Some people are allergic to enema, so those who have allergic constitutions should try not to use enema to wipe their hands and face. Generally, just after washing your face, wipe it dry, squeeze the enema into the palm of your hand, and apply it evenly on your face with both hands. Enema has a good moisturizing effect on the skin. It is a very good skin care product in the cold and dry winter, which can effectively prevent the skin from drying out.

However, you should be careful when applying the enema. Since the skin's absorption of the enema is limited, do not use too much each time. Just apply it evenly on the face. If you use too much, the facial skin will become oily, which not only affects the appearance, but also easily leads to clogging of facial pores and affects normal skin metabolism. Pour the excess enema back into the bottle.

Alternatively, you can use the excess enema to wipe your hands. Here I would like to remind my friends that they must purchase enema at a regular pharmacy. But no matter what, enema is not specifically produced for skin care and cannot be considered a skin care product. Therefore, if you have any special requirements for facial skin care, it is recommended that you buy skin care products containing relevant medicinal functions to maintain your skin.
