What are the lotions? It turns out you have been using the wrong lotions

Today I will introduce to you the classification and characteristics of lotions. Many people use lotions incorrectly. Let me tell you about lotions in detail.

What are the lotions?

I believe that girls who pay more attention to skin care on a daily basis have used toner, but do you really understand toner? There is actually a lot of knowledge behind a small bottle of lotion. Today I will introduce to you the lotions that we have abused over the years.

Distinguish the types of lotions:

1. Secondary cleaning

As the name suggests, this type of lotion is characterized by better cleansing effect and a certain exfoliating effect. Girls with oily skin can consider choosing this kind of toner. Of course, if you have sensitive skin on a daily basis, it is best not to use this type of lotion.

2. Moisturizing and anti-acne products

Don’t think that using a moisturizing and acne-removing lotion can cure acne. In fact, the so-called acne-removing lotion is just an ordinary lotion with anti-inflammatory ingredients added. It does have a certain cleansing effect on acne-prone skin, but you cannot blindly rely on acne-removing lotion to remove acne.

3. Pure moisturizing

Purely moisturizing lotion is the most common type. This type of lotion usually contains polyol moisturizer as the main ingredient and has good skin nourishing effect. Some higher-end moisturizing lotions contain plant extracts to help the skin better absorb moisture and nutrients. This type of lotion is the most gentle and suitable for almost all skin types. It is really good news for girls with dry skin and sensitive skin. For those beautiful girls who have not yet found a suitable lotion for themselves, you may as well try a purely moisturizing lotion first.

Features of lotion:

It’s not the end just to choose the toner. There are often some misunderstandings when using toner. Let me answer them for you today!

1. Is it necessary to use lotion?

The use of toner is not an essential step in the skin care process. It is only used to help the skin replenish moisture. It also allows the nutrients in the skin care products used later to be more easily absorbed by the skin. Many hydrating facial masks, creams and other products can also play a similar role. However, it should be noted that products such as facial creams are not as light as lotions. Xiao Mi recommends that girls with oily skin choose a suitable lotion instead of a heavy facial cream.

2. Can lotion be used to apply paper mask?

Of course you can. If you apply a facial mask for the purpose of moisturizing, then using lotion to apply a paper mask can also achieve the purpose. However, Xiao Mi would like to remind everyone not to wait until the paper mask is dry before removing it, as this may instead cause the moisture in the skin to be absorbed. Generally speaking, 5 to 10 minutes of application is enough.

I wonder if you now know enough about how to choose and use lotion? Why not try it now?
