8 daily skin care taboos that 99% of people make

Before you take any remedies for your skin condition, you should first figure out whether you really have sensitive skin or are you really aging? Or is it false sensitive skin or aging caused by improper skin care methods? The following eight mistakes in daily skin care methods are the culprits of skin problems. I suddenly found that I have indeed made some of these taboos! No matter what your skin condition is, you may want to take a look!

Taboo 1: Wash your face with the shower head while taking a shower

Cause of error: temperature and water pressure are too high

Always remove makeup and wash your face when you shower. I thought that using running water from the shower head would make it cleaner, but I was totally wrong! You should use lukewarm water to wash your face, and the water temperature for a shower is too high. In addition, the water pressure when washing your face directly with a shower head is too high. It’s better to wash your face with water!

Taboo 2: Not washing away the foam on your hairline after washing your face

Cause of error: After washing your face, it is best to look in the mirror to check whether there is any foam residue. Residue is one of the causes of sensitive skin.

Many people don’t notice any residual foam on their hairline when washing their face. Some people even don’t rinse it off with water after discovering it, but just wipe it with a towel. Residual cleansing ingredients are very likely to cause skin sensitivity, so after washing your face, you must carefully check whether there is any residual foam. The best way is to rinse over a large area, and it is safer to wet your hairline.

Taboo 3: Because the skin becomes smooth and delicate after applying the peel-off mask, it is not recommended to use it frequently.

Cause of error: The instructions for use must be strictly followed

Since peel-off masks are so effective, many users do not follow the instructions and use them continuously in the hope of achieving better results. However, few people know that this will have the opposite effect, because the act of peeling will cause a burden on the skin, and continued use will make the skin's defenses worse, causing sensitive skin and affecting skin condition.

Big taboo 4: Going out without makeup when your skin is itchy or sensitive

Cause of error: bare face cannot resist the stimulation of the external environment

It is true that it is best not to irritate the skin when sensitive symptoms such as itching occur, but you should still be cautious if you go out without makeup. The effects of ultraviolet rays, air pollution, air conditioning, etc. may make allergy symptoms worse, so it is best to use a primer or foundation specially designed for sensitive skin. But be careful to only apply a thin layer, otherwise it will cause a burden on your skin when removing makeup.

Big taboo 5: When your skin becomes sensitive, immediately switch to sensitive skin care products

Mistake: Avoid changing all your skin care products at once

It is understandable that you want to stabilize your sensitive skin as soon as possible and therefore switch to anti-allergic skin care products all at once, but doing so will actually put a burden on your skin. If your skin becomes dry or has other problems while you are changing skin care products, you will not know which product is incompatible with your skin. The best way to replace is to use the skin care products in reverse order, first replace the last used lotion or cream, and then gradually replace one product every day.

Taboo 6: Blow-drying your hair after taking a shower before applying skin care products

Cause of error: The heat from the hair dryer will cause the facial skin to lose moisture

Many people blow dry their hair immediately after taking a shower. After washing their face, the unprotected skin is easily damaged by the hot air from the hair dryer, causing it to lose moisture and moisture. Therefore, it is best to apply skin care products and condition your skin before blow-drying your hair. For the sake of convenience, some people blow-dry their hair first, but they never expected that this small negligence would become a big taboo in daily skin care.

Taboo 7: Pour toner directly onto your hands, thinking that patting with your hands will have a better effect and that it is economical.

Cause of error: If your hands are not clean enough, applying it on your face will cause secondary pollution and affect the skin care effect.

The best way is to wet a cotton pad with toner and pat it on your face. Then pat your face and neck from the inside to the outside and from the bottom to the top, or wipe horizontally with the nose as the center line. This method can also help shed aging dead skin cells and leave the skin dry and clean.

Taboo 8: Apply eye cream horizontally, quickly and forcefully

Cause of error: The skin around the eyes is the thinnest on the face, so you should apply eye cream in a "piano-playing" manner

Eye cream must be used before face cream to prevent the possibility of oil particles. Squeeze out a rice-sized amount of eye cream onto the middle fingertips of both hands, then gently press the ring fingers of both hands on the side of the bridge of the nose, and press the index finger slightly above the cheekbone. In this position, support the middle finger so that it can press evenly and steadily on the skin around the eyes. Gently press the eye cream into the skin around the eyes from the outer corner to the inner corner using a piano-playing motion. This method can not only help the eye cream to be better absorbed, but also effectively promote blood circulation around the eyes and eliminate dark circles. Pay special attention to making sure the amplitude and strength of the tapping are small.
