How to improve skin absorption

It is a situation that many people are prone to encounter during skin care. Non-absorption of skin can easily lead to some skin problems. Non-absorption after skin care can easily lead to some skin problems. There are many reasons for skin non-absorption. This may be due to not choosing the right skin care products, or not doing skin care according to age groups. There are also many ways to improve skin non-absorption. You can clean the skin first and then choose the right skin care products to do skin care.

How to improve skin absorption?

The failure of skin care products to be absorbed is usually due to the incorrect selection of skin care products or the skin not being properly cleansed.

1. Common causes of non-absorption

1. Not knowing the age of your skin

There is a huge difference in the demand for skin care products between skin aged 25+ and young skin under 25. As we all know, 25 is the watershed for the decline of skin condition. From the age of 25, the requirements for skin care products are not only hydration, but more importantly, anti-aging!

For example, take the question of why some people think that facial masks do not moisturize. If a woman is over 25 years old and chooses a facial mask to moisturize, the effect will naturally be greatly reduced.

2. Cuticle barrier problem

Some people exfoliate once a week, while others exfoliate once a year. These are two extremes. The former can cause sensitive and dry skin, while the latter can cause dark, yellow, and rough skin. The stratum corneum has a protective barrier function, so an overly thick stratum corneum will block the absorption of skin care products, just like an umbrella blocking external nutrients. It is not good to have too thin or too thick cuticle. Only by grasping the correct exfoliation frequency can the skin better absorb nutrients.

3. Skin care order

Most people know the basic skin care sequence: makeup remover - cleanser - water - eye cream - essence - lotion - face cream. As long as you follow this order, there will basically be no big mistakes. But some girls will use water and cream after cleansing, which is simple. Therefore, it may happen that you use skin care products every day but see no effect.

4. Product molecules are too large

Just like you can't swallow a cow in one gulp, some products have molecules that are too large and the skin's absorption rate is limited, so they cannot be absorbed and can only stay on the surface. Generally, before using large molecules (cream), small molecules should be used to open the skin channels step by step to promote absorption.

2. Ways to Improve Absorption

1. Exfoliate properly

For people with oily, rough skin and thick stratum corneum, you can exfoliate once a month. Please note: People with sensitive skin and dry skin should not exfoliate easily! Because the stratum corneum of this type of skin is inherently thin, exfoliation will cause the skin to lose its natural protective layer and cause more skin problems.

2. Hydrophilic products first

When it comes to skin care, you should first moisturize your skin, especially in winter. You must replenish your skin fully before using subsequent products. When using gel products or creams, it is recommended to use pressing method for better absorption.
