What to do if your face is peeling

Facial peeling refers to the peeling of the facial skin. Peeling on the face is generally caused by dermatitis or inflammation of the facial skin due to external bacterial infection. It will not only easily lead to peeling but also itching, redness and swelling, which is very harmful to skin health. It can be treated with some ointments externally.

What to do if your face breaks out?

Flaky skin on your face may be caused by seborrheic dermatitis. The occurrence of seborrheic dermatitis leads to an inflammatory reaction on the face, and the sweat glands or sebaceous glands cannot effectively secrete on the skin surface. The skin surface loses a certain amount of moisturizing and nourishing effect, resulting in dryness. When it is dry to a certain extent, the stratum corneum will slightly peel off, and then peeling will occur. If peeling occurs, you can usually apply polysulfate mucopolysaccharide cream, or sodium heparin cream, or urea cream. Of course, you can also use vitamin E cream for external application, 1-2 times a day.

What to do if your face is peeling and has white flakes

1. Choose the right cleansing products

After using a facial cleanser that suits you, your skin will feel refreshed and slightly astringent (but not peeling), and your skin color will become lighter (due to exfoliation, it has a temporary effect of slight whitening).

2. Use toner or softener

They can lock moisture into the skin, keep it moisturized and reduce water evaporation from the face.

3. Apply body lotion or moisturizer

Moisturizers need to stay on the skin for a long time, so it is important to choose truly high-quality products to achieve the best results.

4. Remember to use sunscreen

When choosing, pay attention to the SPF sun protection factor provided by the product. Although the SPF index can range from 2 to 60, SPF8-15 is sufficient for daily sun protection. When the SPF index is too low, the sun protection function may not be sufficient. But an SPF index that is too high can easily cause skin allergies.

Special Tips

One of the most important aspects of weekly care is the use of facial masks. Here are the steps to use facial masks:

1. Use after cleansing skin.

2. Unless otherwise specified, facial mask cream should not be applied on the eyes and lips.

3. Every time you use a facial mask, apply it on your neck as well.

4. Apply a facial mask before appearing in public or attending a banquet to make it easier to apply powder.

5. The skin is often exposed to wind and sun, so daily basic care and some special care within your ability (such as applying facial masks) are very important.

6. If your skin feels uncomfortable, dry, tanned, or sweat is absorbed by the skin after applying makeup, it is best to use a facial mask cream in time.

7. Do not use peel-off masks too frequently as they may cause skin sagging. 1 to 2 times a month is enough.

8. When doing a coagulating mask, do not have too many facial expressions and try to avoid talking, otherwise wrinkles will easily appear.
