How to take care of your facial skin in winter

I believe that many friends are most worried about the maintenance of their facial skin in winter, because the facial skin is exposed to the outside all day long and is exposed to wind and sun, so it will suffer more damage. Therefore, you need to spend more time and energy on facial maintenance. So how do you take care of your facial skin in winter? In order to better help everyone, please join me in reading the following content.

In winter, the climate is cold and dry, metabolism and blood circulation are slow, the secretion of sebaceous glands and sweat glands decreases, and the sebum film that maintains skin moisture and weak acidity is not easy to form. The skin easily becomes dull and even becomes rough, sensitive, peeling, and wrinkled. Therefore, skin care in winter focuses on moisturizing and repairing. To maintain the moisture of the skin, in addition to replenishing the deficiency of the skin membrane, the most important thing is to promote the health of epidermal keratinocytes, strengthen the structure of the dermal network tissue, and enhance their water retention function. Cold air has a strong irritation on the skin, especially the facial skin. Therefore, experts remind people to pay attention to facial skin care in winter and start from the following aspects:

1. Wash your face scientifically. Be sure to wash your face after going out in winter. It is best to wash your face with cold boiled water in winter. Fresh cold boiled water is in its best physiological state at 20℃ ~ 25℃ and is easily absorbed by skin cells. If there is no cold boiled water, you can use half a basin of cold water and add 1 teaspoon of boric acid to soften the water and wash your face. During the day, the temperature is lowest in the morning, second lowest in the evening, and highest at noon. Many beauty experts advocate washing your face alternately with cold, hot and warm water: use 20℃~25℃ cold water in the morning, 38℃~42℃ hot water at noon, and 35℃~37℃ warm water at night. This is consistent with the laws of natural change.

2. Take good care of the skin around your eyes. Avoid rough eye makeup removal or use of corrosive products. Do not rub your eyes hard. Instead, perform the following gentle care:

(1) Gently apply an appropriate amount of cleansing cream to the area above the eyes, moving your hands outwards when applying, and moving your hands inwards when applying to the skin below the eyes. Dip a cotton ball in a special eye cleansing lotion and place it on the eyelids for a few seconds.

(2) Because paper towels contain tiny wood fibers, it is best to use a small piece of cotton and a soft towel to wipe off the cleanser.

(3) Rinse several times with warm water, then gently pat the area around the eyes dry with a towel.

The above paragraphs tell us very well how to take care of our facial skin in winter. I sincerely hope that all friends can read the above content carefully so that we can get better care of our skin in the cold winter. Of course, in addition to using some highly moisturizing creams, we should also apply facial masks frequently because facial masks contain a variety of nutrients.
