You may not know it, but believe beauty ads can damage your skin.
1. Eye patch
The under eye patch is advertised as a product to help get rid of the swelling on the skin. Some manufacturers even promise the patches can remove wrinkles. But there are some rules you should never forget to use eye patches effectively and without harming the skin. – Do not use your hands to remove the under-eye patch from the box. The women in the advertisements often use their fingers to apply the patch under their eyes. But if you put your finger in the container, there’s a good chance bacteria can get in. So it’s best to use a special tool to remove the patches. Some manufacturers put the tool in an under eye patch holder. – Don’t leave the patches on your face for too long. The manufacturer recommends spending only 15-20 minutes to apply the patches. And there is a reason for this. When the patches provide all the moisture they have, they begin to draw moisture out of the skin, leading to more wrinkles. Therefore, you should not leave the patch on your face for too long. – Do not store the stickers in the refrigerator. Some experts think it’s better to put the patch in the refrigerator before using it. And some people put them in the refrigerator all the time. Cold patches will reduce figs quickly but patches may be less effective if they are kept cold for a long time. Ideally, you should simply place the pack of patch in the refrigerator 20 minutes before using it. 2. Ice cream In the advertisements, women put a variety of creams on their faces. But even the best cream out there can turn your face into a greasy pancake if you take too much. Interestingly, in the advertisements, they spread the cream evenly over their face so that all skin areas have the same amount of cream. But this is not always the case. You need to find the driest areas of your face. Maybe some spots have more wrinkles and need more cream. On average, any skin type only needs a pea-sized maximum of cream for the entire face. Applying a little cream over the T-zone is the easiest part. 3. Clay mask Ads and even some manuals say that clay masks should be left on until they are completely dry and even begin to crack. But this is wrong – it will only harm the skin. Clay absorbs excess oil and removes dirt, but if you leave it on for too long, it absorbs moisture in the skin and makes it excessively dry. In addition, the dry clay will pull on the skin, which can cause new wrinkles. So, you should apply clay mask for 10 minutes and remove them before they dry again. 4. Paper Masks The reason why paper masks are so effective is because they adhere so tightly to the skin. It is better to spend more time removing all wrinkles and letting the mask touch all areas of the face than it is to apply and remove. Applying these masks will not cleanse the skin. If you do not wash your face with the gel, the active ingredients in the mask will not be able to penetrate the skin. Remember to carefully read the instructions for use! Some masks should not be used every day. Other masks can stay on skin longer than 15-20 minutes, and some need to be rinsed off after you remove the mask. 5. Exfoliate your skin Exfoliants have strong particles that damage the skin more than exfoliate the skin. To get rid of dead skin, it’s better to use products that contain acids. If you still like mechanical exfoliation, wear gloves and cleanse your skin. Another common misconception is that oily skin requires regular use of exfoliants. In fact, the more often it exfoliates, the greasy the skin is. So, do not exfoliate more than 2-3 times a week. If you use acidic products, apply sunscreen before going outside. Most sunscreens are advertised to be used on sunny days and when it’s cloudy. Remember to apply sunscreen right away, even if you are not using acidic beauty products to avoid chloasma and premature aging. 6. Other mistakes – Consuming too many beauty products in a row can be harmful to your health. Today, there are so many beauty products out there that we buy and use them all at the same time. But be aware that some ingredients should not be used together. In addition, when you use too many products at once, you can clog pores and decrease the protective function of your skin, even if all products are of high quality. – Scrubbing your face too hard can damage your skin. Cotton swabs and towels can stretch the skin if you rub it too much on your face. If you use a cotton swab to apply skin care products, make sure the cotton swab is wet. It just slides on the skin without stretching the skin. If you regularly use one motion to wash your face, chances are you haven’t washed the upper forehead, chin area, and ears. So, pay attention to those areas when washing your face.
