What are the maintenance methods for dry skin?

Women all love beauty, and women's skin is particularly important to women. If the skin is rough and dry, it will greatly affect women's appearance. Human skin can be classified into oily skin and dry skin based on its wetness or dryness. Moist skin needs moisture to prevent it from becoming rough, while dry skin will cause many skin problems, such as peeling, roughness, etc. So how should we care for dry skin and what are the methods?

1. Be gentle when washing your face: Many people don’t like having even a little bit of oil on their faces, or they habitually wash their skin until it becomes rough. Others firmly believe that the skin must be cleansed “thoroughly” so that it can breathe. These are not correct concepts. Washing your face gently and moderately is the most important of all moisturizing work. If you wash too much, the water-retaining film of the skin will often be damaged. In this case, no matter how good the moisturizer is, it will be difficult to achieve the best effect.

2. Abundant moisture: refers to a bunch of watery things such as lotion, moisturizing lotion, moisturizing gel, moisturizing essence, moisturizing mask, etc. Of course, if you want to save money, your skin already has a lot of water after washing your face, so you don’t necessarily have to apply some more water. The main reason for needing moisture is that the skin's water retention capacity decreases and the skin's water content is insufficient, so it is necessary to add moisture to increase the skin's water content. But think about it carefully. If the skin does not have enough water retention, even if you add water to increase the brightness, it cannot retain moisture and the water will run away in less than one or two hours. Therefore, this method is only suitable for skin that has good water retention. Therefore, most people who want to regain their youthful complexion still need to add a third step.

3. Sufficient moisturizing: For skin with poor water retention, oil is necessary to lock in the added water and prevent it from escaping. Otherwise, the water will evaporate and take away more water, making the skin drier. Only by providing sufficient moisturizing to lock in the moisture will the second step make sense. Therefore, if you have oily or acne-prone skin that cannot tolerate any oil at all, the key point is to do the first step well so that the skin's water retention capacity does not suffer further damage. If the skin's water retention capacity deteriorates, the second point alone will not be of much help.

After reading the above introduction, the majority of beauty-loving women with dry skin should understand several skin care methods that are suitable for them. In fact, you don’t need to think that having dry skin is worse than oily skin. Excessive oil secretion of oily skin can protect the skin but it will also clog the pores. If dry skin finds a good care method, the skin will become very smooth.
