Many people know the importance of skin care and spend countless hours on it, but the results are not obvious. In fact, this may be precisely because we have fallen into some common misconceptions. I hope to use the most common language, to take you a peek at these misconceptions and solve the mystery.
1.Viral Myth: “Over-cleansing is also a form of love” Remember, over-loving can also hurt your skin. Many people cleanse their skin multiple times a day, striving to achieve a level of oil-free skin. However, the skin produces natural oils every day, which is a protective mechanism that prevents the skin from drying out too much and blocks pollutants from the outside world. Knowing “moderation” is the key, using gentle cleansing products in the morning and evening is enough.
2.Passive Misconception: “Skin problems are all due to the wrong products” Many people mistakenly believe that skin problems are due to the use of inappropriate skin care products. However, this idea clearly ignores the fact that taking care of your skin comes from an overall healthy lifestyle. Sleep, diet, or even stress, directly affects the condition of your skin. Using the right skincare products, combined with healthy habits, can make your skin truly glow from within.
3.Process Misconception: “You only need sunscreen when you go out” Whether you stay indoors or outdoors, UV rays affect your skin in every way. What’s more, the blue light emitted by electronic devices can also damage your skin. Therefore, no matter where you are, out of the house or staring at the computer office, you should apply sunscreen to your skin every day to prevent UV rays and blue light on the skin.
4.Negative misunderstanding: “Oil control products will lead to more oil skin” Many people think that oil control products will make the skin’s need for oil more intense, and secrete more oil. In fact, the appropriate oil control products will help to balance the skin condition, and even help to reduce sebum secretion.
5.Extreme Myth: “Whitening products will change your skin color” No, it won’t. Your skin color is determined by your genes, and any whitening product can only help to remove dead skin cells and reveal your skin’s natural brightness. So, when choosing a product, don’t get too caught up in the word “whitening”, but consider whether it can help you improve skin problems, such as minimizing spots or scars.
6.Mental Misconception: “A set of the same brand is the right choice” Don’t be fooled by advertising slogans. Don’t be fooled by advertising slogans. It’s the formula, not the brand, that really determines the effectiveness of an effective product. And do not have to choose the same brand of a whole set of skin care products, products that meet the needs of your skin, regardless of how the brand should be the first thing you consider.
7.Curing type of misunderstanding: “acne because the skin is not clean enough” We often get this advice: “clean work to do, there will be no acne.” However, this is not the reality. In fact, acne is often caused by hormonal imbalances in the body. Simply cleaning the dirt off your skin will not solve the root of the problem. In this case, you need to seek the advice of a doctor for proper treatment.
8.Fatalistic Myth: “Skin Aging is Inevitable” Acne, wrinkles, pigmentation, they are seen as signs of skin aging, making people think that it is an unchangeable fate. In fact, the loss of collagen is uncontrollable, but through reasonable habits and skin care measures, it is entirely possible for us to slow down the process of skin aging to a certain extent.
What we need is the right knowledge of skincare, to listen carefully to the voice of the skin, to let the skin breathe more easily and naturally, and to find the right skincare for ourselves. The road to the end of beauty is about perseverance, and, everyone deserves to be the best they can be. When you understand this, the mystery of the skin will be revealed, you will find: the original, beautiful, has always been in your hands.
