Is the water lotion effective in hydrating?

We have all heard of toner and cream, but now there is a kind of skin care product on the market, which mainly functions to moisturize. In fact, the effect of toner is that it combines the characteristics of both toner and cream. Not everyone can use toner because it contains a small amount of alcohol. In order to sterilize the skin and allow the skin care products to be better absorbed by the skin, everyone's skin type is different, so you should choose according to your own skin type.

Toner is also called firming water, lotion, etc. Some toners contain trace amounts of alcohol, while some are purely plant-based. The function of toner is to cleanse again to restore the pH value of the skin's surface, condition the stratum corneum, enable the skin to absorb better, and prepare for the use of skin care products. So after washing your face, use toner to quickly replenish moisture. Experts recommend using astringent for oily skin, toner for healthy skin, softener for dry skin, astringent for the T-zone of combination skin, and sensitive water or repair water for sensitive skin.

It is always OK to use one kind of moisturizer and lotion.

Skin care products selection:

1. Cleansing products

Generally speaking, cleansing products with moisturizing effects are mostly in the form of emulsions, gels or gels, and their ingredients often contain oil components such as jojoba oil and soybean fat. When choosing a moisturizing cleanser, you should usually choose a foam-free or low-foaming product. For dry or extra-dry skin, it is best not to choose a foam-type product with strong cleansing power.

2. Moisturizing water

Moisturizing and water are very important. Generally speaking, brands usually classify water according to skin type. So-called softening water is mostly for dry skin; so-called balancing water is mostly for neutral or combination skin; so-called toner is mostly for oily skin.

3. Essence

Moisturizing essence is usually called essence lotion, essence cream or essence liquid. Although they are all called essences, there are some differences in texture. Of course, it is easy to distinguish them from their Chinese names.

4. Lotion and Cream

Moisturizing products with the effect of "locking moisture" are basically moisturizing lotions and creams. Their names are easy to recognize and their effects are also clear. Its job is to lock in the moisture that has just been replenished to the stratum corneum, preventing it from being lost easily, and allowing it to slowly nourish the stratum corneum of the skin. Of course, the more moisturized and hydrated your skin is, the better the penetration of the moisturizing ingredients.

5. Facial Mask

Moisturizing masks come in cream, mud, and face-shaped paper forms. Some cream-based moisturizing masks can be worn before sleeping, which are very similar to moisturizing night creams; mud-like masks are difficult to clean, but the moisturizing effect is usually better; the biggest feature of face-shaped masks is convenience, but the cutting of the paper mask, the thickness of the paper mask, the texture of the paper mask, the amount of moisturizing essence carried, etc., are all closely related to the moisturizing effect.
