Winter skin care for men

People may think that only female friends' skin needs to be cared for, but in fact male friends' skin also needs to be cared for, otherwise their skin will become particularly bad, especially in winter when the weather is relatively cold. At this time, the skin is easily frostbitten or even dry. Therefore, it is not a strange thing for male friends to take care of their skin in winter. On the contrary, many male friends have begun to learn to use some methods to care for their skin.

Part Ⅰ

Inertial fantasy: Keep the “-” clean and the “+” replenished and you can safely change seasons.

Tips: It is not easy for men to establish a clean and nourishing beauty habit.

To keep a "good face" all year round, this rule is of course not applicable everywhere! When switching from summer time to winter time, men's skin is thicker than women's, which allows them to face sensitive issues calmly. However, it does not mean that the impact of factors such as temperature difference, air moisture content, metabolism, etc. on the skin can be the same as in summer time. Often, subtraction is not done sufficiently, leaving no room for counterattack even with more addition.

The stratum corneum, which contains 30% water, is the protective barrier of healthy skin, but the accumulation of too much dead skin cells is the biggest invisible obstacle to achieving the expected moisturizing effect. The oily and sweaty summer accelerates the metabolism of the stratum corneum. If the dead skin cells are not removed in time, no matter how much water there is, it will be blocked out and cannot be absorbed, and dryness will follow.

According to skin type, choose gel exfoliating products for dry skin, mineral masks for oily skin, and exfoliating cotton for difficult mixed skin types. This approach can ensure that on the one hand, you can avoid proximity sensitivity in autumn and winter, and on the other hand, the moisturizing ingredients can act directly on the natural stratum corneum to exert the ability to replenish water, continuously produce water, and lock in moisture, thereby locking in moisture for the skin for a long time.

Part Ⅱ

Misunderstanding: Applying an extra layer of lotion after cleansing can achieve double the moisturizing effect.

Tips: Thinking that moisturizing can be achieved by replenishing a large amount of "water" is a potential beauty misunderstanding.

In fact, "wet" and "moisture" must be mentioned together in beauty. Wet refers to water, and moist refers to oil. Moisturizing skin can achieve the "moisturizing" that appears most frequently in beauty magazines and is the most easily overlooked. The stratum corneum of the skin has a limited ability to absorb and utilize water, so even if you apply an extra layer of lotion after cleansing, it will not achieve double the moisturizing effect and balance the water and oil of the skin as imagined.

In addition to using some skin care products to replenish moisture on your face, the most important thing is to take some dietary methods to replenish moisture. For example, tomatoes are a very good food that can maintain the elasticity and moisture of your skin. This is because tomatoes are very rich in lycopene, which can maintain digestion in your intestines and prevent your endocrine system from being out of balance.
