The correct skin care steps are like this, I have been doing it wrong all these years

Many girls may find that their homes are filled with various skin care products. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, among so many, which ones should be used and which ones should not be used? Which ones should be used first and which ones should be used last? So they started complaining that although they bought these popular products, they seemed to have no effect on them. Is it really ineffective?

The editor would like to say that, in fact, there is a sequence for using skin care products. It’s not that the products are ineffective, but many times it’s because you use them in the wrong order. To achieve the best skin care effect, the following skin care order cannot be messed up.

Step 1: Cleanse

Skin cleansing is always the most important step in skin care. When your face is clean, the pores will be unblocked and the following skin care procedures can be effectively absorbed. If the cleansing is not thorough, the skin will easily become dry and rough, and the pores will become enlarged. Girls can just use facial cleanser to clean their faces when they wake up in the morning. At night, you should first use makeup remover to remove makeup, and then use facial cleanser to clean your skin.

Step 2: Toner

After cleansing, be sure to use toner to hydrate your face. Some toners have a cleansing function and can be applied with a cotton pad. Generally speaking, the essence of toner is to moisturize your face, and you can also pat toner directly on your face with your hands. Girls should pay attention to the cleanliness of their hands and not pat too hard, just pat lightly. However, whether you like to use cotton pads or apply it directly, your skin must feel not dry but moisturized enough.

Step 3: Eye cream

There has been a popular saying before: you only need to use eye cream after the age of 25. Many girls take this as their belief and carry it out resolutely. But you have to know that collagen does not wait for anyone and starts to be lost at the age of 18. Girls, it is best to start using eye cream when you are between 18 and 20 years old. Although eye cream is the most expensive product in skin care products, girls should not be reluctant to spend it. The skin around the eyes has the least skin glands, so products with smaller molecules and better permeability are needed to be effective, which is why it is expensive. Girls are advised to avoid the skin around the eyes when using products such as water, lotion, and cream.

Step 4: Essence

The use of essence also requires skills. Girls should rub their hands to warm them up before using the essence, then pour the essence on their hands and rub it evenly on their face. The temperature of the hands can promote better absorption of the essence. It is best to avoid the area around the eyes and gently press from bottom to top and from outside to inside. Finally, use your fingertips to gently pat your face until it is completely absorbed.

Step 5: Lotion/cream

Do girls think that hydration and moisturizing go together? In fact, it is not like that. Hydration is hydration, and moisturizing is moisturizing. They cannot be confused! Moisturizing is done with lotion, while moisturizing is done with lotion. Girls don’t have to use essence, but they must use lotion! Otherwise, the toner you just applied will quickly disappear and you will need lotion to lock in moisture. As for facial cream, it can come in handy when lotion is no longer able to moisturize and lock in moisture. You can choose day cream or night cream according to your needs.

Step 6: Sunscreen

Going out in the summer without sun protection is unbearable! If you go out normally, you can choose a sunscreen with an SPF value of 30, but if you are going to the beach, you have to choose a sunscreen product with an SPF value of 50. In addition to summer, sun protection is also needed in other seasons, but the SPF index does not need to be too high. Generally, SPF30 sunscreen can effectively resist ultraviolet rays.

The above is the order of use for daily skin care. In order to better maintain your skin, girls must follow the correct order for skin care, so that skin care can be more effective!
