Is it good to apply cucumber on your face every day?

Cucumber is a seasonal vegetable in summer. As a refreshing vegetable in summer, its function is not just simple consumption. Using cucumber for facial mask is also a common choice. Cucumber is very suitable for people with small pimples or oily face, because it has a significant ability to absorb water and absorb heat from the body. It is more effective in removing yellowness and dark circles on the face.

Applying cucumber on the face can remove spots and eliminate dark circles. Cucumber can absorb excess body heat, eliminate the feeling of heat in the skin, stabilize the hot skin, discharge waste accumulated in the pores, remove brown spots and make the skin more beautiful.

It is especially suitable for people who sweat easily and often have small pimples on their face. Cut a fresh cucumber into thin slices, wipe your face carefully with a hot towel, then lie on your back and apply the cucumber slices to your face one by one. For areas that are difficult to stick to, such as the nose, you can cut a cucumber into half slices and stick them there. Keep it on for about 10 minutes, then wipe your face clean with a hot towel. If you insist on doing the cucumber beauty method once a day, it can make your skin softer and smoother, eliminate dirt accumulation in the pores, and make your skin look brand new.

Generally speaking, it is okay to apply cucumber on your face every day, because cucumber juice, like cold boiled water, is easily absorbed and penetrated by the human body. However, there are exceptions to everything, and it depends on the person. Some people have a thinner skin stratum corneum, so they are not suitable for daily facial applications. If used every day, allergies will occur, which will be counterproductive. Therefore, no matter how good something is, it should be used in moderation.

Cucumber facial mask also has disadvantages

1. Apply cucumber on your face, hoping that the skin can absorb the vitamin C in the cucumber and play a role in lightening melanin, but the effect may not be very good. Because the skin has a shielding effect on foreign substances, especially some large molecules, which are not easily absorbed by the skin.

2. Apply cucumber on face. Fresh cucumbers contain a lot of water, which can easily cause oxidation in the air, and the skin will be affected. Unprocessed cucumbers contain bacteria that multiply in the air and can easily cause skin allergies and redness after application, which is not very safe.

3. Applying cucumber on the face can also play a short-term role in hydrating and moisturizing. The stratum corneum of the skin absorbs a small amount of water, which will indeed make the skin look whiter visually. However, once the moisture in the skin evaporates, its true appearance will be revealed.

4. Also, some cucumbers have been sprayed with pesticides, and you may experience allergic symptoms if you apply them on your face.
