Skin-damaging behavior: touching your face with your hands to squeeze pimples

What does skin damage mean? Through some behaviors, your skin becomes worse and worse. What are the behaviors in daily life that damage your skin? It turns out we do this often.

What does skin damage mean? It is through human behavior that your skin becomes worse and worse. After looking at these behaviors, you will know that you are actually destroying your skin. What are the behaviors that destroy your skin?

1. Touch your face with your hands

Why do you always touch your face with those hands? Is it a nervous little move or is it to attract the attention of the male god? ! The two things that cannot be touched during the day are hands. There are hundreds of millions of bacteria on them. If they get on your face and are not cleaned in time, it may cause disfigurement! The facial cleanser must have a strong ability to remove dirt. The key to cleansing is to penetrate deeply into the skin without leaving any stains. Wash your face carefully, take an appropriate amount of facial cleanser and rub it gently on your face, then wash it off with clean water after one minute. The key to skin care is that the facial cleanser should be gentle and non-irritating to the skin, while also being able to hydrate the skin.

2. Squeeze pimples

It is normal for girls with oily skin to have a lot of pimples on their faces, but who wants to go out with a face full of pimples? It not only affects the appearance but also makes you lack confidence. However, squeezing pimples with your hands will not only fail to eliminate them, but will also introduce bacteria to them, causing them to grow wildly. If you want to get rid of acne, you must first control oil. Choosing a gentle oil-control cleanser is the key. Then apply aloe vera gel and that's it. The gel made from aloe vera juice does not contain any chemicals and retains its original ingredients. It can give full play to the functions of aloe vera in moisturizing, moisturizing and beautifying the skin. Applying it to the affected area can inhibit the growth of acne, heal wounds and repair acne scars. An acne removal kit is also a good choice.

3. Inadequate water replenishment

Moisturizing is the key to skin care. Dry skin feels really uncomfortable, and long-term dehydration will cause the skin to enter the aging stage prematurely. If the hydration is not done properly, no matter how much essence and sunscreen you use, it will be useless. The hydrating set in summer should be refreshing and moisturizing. Toner can awaken the vitality of the skin and open the pores to let the skin drink enough water; lotion can quickly lock the moisture on the surface, while at the same time it can penetrate deep into the skin to bring essence to make the face firm and elastic. More importantly, the hydrating molecules in it can play a role in whitening. The moisturizing set is the best choice for girls. It is easy to use and inexpensive, and it avoids skin problems caused by different chemical elements in different skin care products.

4. Not knowing how to protect yourself from the sun

What? Never wear sunscreen when going out? You scare me to death! Don't tell me you're a girl. Sunscreen can effectively block ultraviolet rays to prevent sunburn and the deposition of melanin. It can also provide a "protective film" for the skin indoors to prevent interference from radiation. Especially in such hot weather as in summer, isn’t it zuosi if you go out without sunscreen? You must use a lot of sunscreen. If you apply too little, it will not have any effect at all. And you must apply it 15 minutes before going out, and remember to remove it after you come back.

Nowadays, many people are taking care of their skin. If these habits are not changed, they are really ruining their skin instead of protecting their skin. Change these bad habits quickly!

5. Excessive cleaning

Many people believe that the cleaner the face is washed, the more completely the skin care products can be absorbed; for those with oily skin, they will think that washing the face more often and cleansing it thoroughly can control the secretion of oil. In fact, it is not good to wash your face too much. Excessive cleansing can easily destroy the original water and oil balance of the skin, causing the face to become oilier the more you wash. Normally, it is sufficient to gently cleanse your face once in the morning and once in the evening.

6. Excessive exfoliation

Similarly, most people think that the stratum corneum will affect the absorption of skin care products, and the skin will be really smooth and tender after exfoliating! So I frequently use exfoliating creams, scrubs, and face brushes to ravage my face (I'm rolling my eyes here, do you really not feel any pain on your face?).

The stratum corneum is our skin's protective layer against the outside world. As the body's metabolism is constantly renewed, frequent and excessive exfoliation can easily make our skin sensitive and fragile, turning it into sensitive skin. In addition, it can also cause the loss of lipids between keratinocytes, reducing the skin's ability to moisturize and lock in moisture. Many cases of dry and sensitive skin are caused in this way.

7. Use cotton pads to moisturize

I don't know since when the method of using cotton pads to apply lotion became popular. It is said that using cotton pads to moisturize can save water and achieve a better moisturizing effect. When I was young and ignorant, I also used cotton pads to wipe the water, but after a few times, I felt that the cotton pads hurt my face, so I stopped using them. I also didn’t want to use cotton pads to remove makeup, and I chose makeup remover oil instead. Rubbing your face with a cotton pad can easily damage our skin's natural barrier - the stratum corneum, causing the skin to become more red and sensitive. No matter how good the toner or lotion is, it will be useless.

8. Apply facial mask every day

Many of my friends have heard that a certain celebrity applies thousands of facial masks a year. He applies them wherever he goes, even when he eats hotpot. So a large number of people started applying facial masks every day, hoping to stay young forever. Don't be too careless with facial masks. After all, they are a culture medium on your face. If you absorb too much good stuff, it will be an overdose, and if you absorb too much bad stuff, problems will occur. It is recommended to apply a regular facial mask 2 to 3 times a week.

9. Inadequate sun protection

Sun protection is something I always have to mention. Sun protection is prevention before it happens. Ultraviolet rays will not only make people darker, but also aggravate acne, freckles, make the skin age, become loose, and produce wrinkles... This is something that no amount of expensive skin care products can save. Although most people wear sunscreen, not many people apply enough. Studies show that if the amount of sunscreen applied decreases by 10%, the sun protection capability will decrease by 70%. Normally, a thicker sunscreen will need an amount the size of a one-dollar coin to apply on your face. If it is a very thin texture, about two coins will be needed.
