Spring is bright and flowers are blooming, the spring scenery is beautiful and the heart is filled with spring. In spring, Yang energy rises, grass and trees sprout, and all things grow new. The natural world is full of vitality, all things are thriving, and people are also in high spirits and full of vigor. In the spring when contact dermatitis is most prevalent, don't let it stop you from enjoying the beauty of spring. However, it is inevitable that some people will suffer from facial skin allergies in spring. So what should we do when this happens? Facial skin allergies in spring mainly manifest as contact dermatitis or facial eczema. Common allergens are pollen, dust mites, fur, and physical and chemical substances. Characteristics: There is obvious contact with certain substances before the onset of the disease, and the main manifestations at the contact site are erythema, swelling, papules, blisters, bullae, and itching. Some people think that the weather is cold, so they wash their faces with hot water, or for the sake of convenience, they wash their faces while taking a shower. In fact, this is all wrong. Hot water can easily enlarge the pores and damage the sebum film on the face, thus causing allergies. You can’t wash your face with cold water either, because when the skin is sensitive, both hot and cold water will cause adverse stimulation to the skin. Therefore, it is best to wash your face with warm water, as long as the water temperature is slightly higher than cold water. In addition, do not be blown by cold wind or exposed to the sun. Some people like to apply a hot towel to their face. In fact, this can easily cause the skin's resistance to decrease, so it is best not to apply hot compresses in spring. Some people have oily skin and always feel that their face is not washed clean enough, so they rub their face hard when washing. Some even use facial cleanser twice. These are all wrong. Overly dry skin is more prone to allergies, and excessive cleansing will make the skin dry, so it increases the chance of skin allergies. When choosing detergents, try not to use soap-based lotions such as medicated soap. It is best to use a weakly acidic non-soap emulsion. Exfoliating products such as scrubs should not be used. Therefore, when washing your face in spring, you must remember the word "gentle" and just clean it moderately. There is also a step of applying toner, just pat it lightly. Some people think that as the humidity in the air increases in spring, hydration is not so important. In fact, moisturizing is still very important for the skin, especially for dry skin. In early spring, it is best to use some purely moisturizing plant-based sprays and moisturize your face frequently. If your skin is healthy, it will not be so sensitive. Try to choose a sunscreen with low irritation. A SPF of 20-30 is enough. First apply a little on the inside of the forearm or the inside behind the ear where the skin is relatively tender. If there is no adverse reaction within 48 hours, you can use it. Too many skin care products will also increase the possibility of skin allergies, so if you find that your skin does not seem so comfortable, you should start to "reduce the burden" on your skin, such as choosing between sun protection and isolation. So since you are using sunscreen, there is no need to use isolation cream. If you are still worried about putting too much burden on your skin, then wearing a hat or holding an umbrella when going out is a good way that is both safe and practical. Some people also fall into the misunderstanding of allergy prevention. For example, some people find that their skin is redder, so they use thicker foundation to cover it. This will irritate the skin, increase the burden on the skin, and even develop into dermatitis. Therefore, if you find that your skin is redder, you should subtract from it instead of adding to it. When choosing cosmetics, it is best to choose those that do not contain strong fragrances or alcohol. You can choose medical skin care products such as Avène, Winona, La Roche-Posay, Cetaphil, etc. For people with sensitive skin, it is best not to change the cosmetics you are used to using easily. If you want to change to new cosmetics, it is best to do a skin test first. The method is to apply the cosmetics to be used on the inside of the wrist or behind the ear, where the skin is thin and tender, leave it on for one night or 2-3 days, and observe the reaction. If erythema, papules, or even edema, blisters, etc. appear on the application site, you should avoid using the cosmetics. People with sensitive skin should start with the basics of skin care in spring: get enough sleep, eat a balanced diet, maintain a harmonious mood, stay away from polluted environments and allergens, etc.; wash your face frequently, and try to use weakly acidic non-soap emulsions. Exfoliating products such as scrubs should not be used; remember to use sunscreen when going out. If you experience symptoms of facial skin allergies, you should go to the hospital to see a professional doctor in time to avoid missing the best time for treatment. |
