How to take care of your skin in summer? Those little mistakes when taking care of your skin

Generally speaking, the normal metabolic cycle of healthy skin is 28 days. The speed of metabolism determines the quality of your skin. However, many girls often prolong their metabolic cycle due to incorrect skin care and bad living habits, which leads to worse skin condition.

Oily skin means lack of water

"Oily skin needs hydration", Yaya thought this rumor had been explained, but she didn't expect that there are still many girls who ask for hydrating masks to remove oil as soon as summer comes.

Let me explain it again. The oiliness of the skin is determined by the sebaceous glands, and the activity of the sebaceous glands is related to factors such as genes, lifestyle habits, and emotions. The water content of the skin is related to the sweat glands and the stratum corneum, so the two are not related.

To put it more obviously, if oily skin is caused by lack of water, then why doesn't the skin on my thighs become oily when they are dry in the winter? Now that you understand this principle, next time you see a shopping guide recommending moisturizing and oil-removing products to you, just run away without looking back.

Over-cleansing and crazy exfoliation

Yaya, pretend that you still remember the beginning. Skin metabolism is the process of cells moving from the basal layer to the upper layer and eventually dying. The outermost layer of keratin is the waste product of skin metabolism. If it is not cleaned in time, it will cause a burden to the skin over time, such as dull skin and acne.

Therefore, proper exfoliation can make the skin look smoother and whiter. But this doesn’t mean you have to exfoliate like crazy, right? !

Many girls treat their faces as if they were walls, over-cleaning them with all kinds of super-powerful facial cleansers, or exfoliating frantically with cleansing masks and acid-based skin care products. Doing so will only disrupt the normal metabolism of skin keratin and reduce the skin's own defense capabilities.

So ladies whose faces turn red easily and who get acne when they disagree with something, promise me that you will reflect on this, okay?
