Combination skin is different from dry skin and oily skin. Compared with the other two skin types, this one is more complicated. Therefore, it is necessary to put more effort into skin care. Some female friends regretted that they did not choose reasonable skin care methods, which led to major skin problems. So, how should mixed skin be cared for? Let's take a look: Characteristics of combination skin: Combination skin has the characteristics of both oily skin and dry skin. The main characteristics are: the T zone of the face, namely the forehead, nose, both sides of the nose, and the chin are oily, with more oil secretion, oil-water imbalance, and easy to breed acne and acne; the U zone, namely the cheeks, cheekbones, and outer corners of the eyes are dry, with less oil secretion, low water content in the stratum corneum, and the skin appears dry and prone to aging. Therefore, combination skin requires more careful care. Oily and dry combination skin causes: 1. Congenital factors: Due to genetic reasons, many people have more active sebaceous glands in the T zone and less sebaceous glands in the cheeks. 2. Improper daily skin care: In daily life, insufficient hydration will cause an imbalance in the water and oil content of the skin, gradually turning it into combination skin. 3. Staying up late and being under great pressure: Staying up late and having great pressure in life can turn oily, normal or dry skin into combination skin, and can also turn combination skin into oily and dehydrated skin. 4. Seasonal changes: Seasonal changes will increase sebum secretion in the T zone and make the skin in the U zone drier, leading to the appearance of acne, spots and wrinkles. How to care for combination skin Step 1: Cleansing and oil control: Combination dehydrated skin needs to remove oil while cleansing. It is recommended to use an oil-control cleanser. Using it once in the morning and once in the evening can achieve a good cleansing and oil-control effect. After use, you will feel refreshed and not tight. Step 2: Conditioning skin texture: After cleansing, in order to improve the water content of the stratum corneum and the poor ability to absorb nutrients of mixed and dehydrated skin, you can use hyaluronic acid moisturizing toner, which can deeply hydrate the skin while conditioning dry and dehydrated skin and activating the ability of cells to absorb nutrients. Step 3: Hydration and moisturizing: To restore the water and oil balance of combination skin, in addition to replenishing the skin with sufficient water and nutrients, the skin must also retain moisture and prevent it from being lost. You can use some moisturizing cream to better care for your skin. Step 4: Intense hydration and deep nourishment: It is best to strengthen deep hydration care for the skin 1-2 times a week, which can allow moisture to penetrate from the stratum corneum to the inner layer of the skin. You can use some moisturizing masks to make later maintenance more effective. Based on this article, you should have a general understanding of how to care for combination skin. In this way, you can choose a maintenance method that suits you according to your current actual situation. This way, you will be able to better maintain your skin and avoid discomfort caused by improper use of methods. |
