Many women think that the more skin care products are used, the better, but in fact, our skin's absorption capacity is limited. Applying skin care products layer by layer on the face is not conducive to skin absorption and recovery. When I was 50 years old, I realized that skin care products should be as simple as possible rather than complicated as possible. In my thirties and forties, I can actually use these four inconspicuous skin care products more. It looks very simple, but it is actually very helpful for skin care. There is a big difference between using and not using them.
1. Skin care oil
I only used skin care oil consciously when I was 50 years old. At first, I thought the skin care oil was very greasy and it would definitely be sticky when applied to my face. However, after I tried it myself, I found that the current skin care oil is done very well. Not only is the texture very refreshing, but it is also easy to absorb. The most important thing is that we don’t need to use that much when using skin care oil, so a small bottle of skin care oil can be used for more than half a year.
Why do you recommend that you use skin care oil when you are in your thirties and forties?
In fact, our skin is not only dehydrated, but also prone to oil deficiency. The oil secreted by the skin itself can protect the skin's moisture well, so oil the skin in time, and nourishes the skin with oil, so that the moisture of the skin is less likely to be lost.
In addition, skin care oil does not only have one effect. We can also mix skin care oil and liquid foundation together, which will make the liquid foundation more moisturized and will not easily get stuck.
2. toner
I personally think toner can replace facial masks. At first I thought toner was a simple moisturizing effect, but later I found that toner is the best thing for the skin to absorb in these skin care products.
Skin is easy to dry after washing the face with facial cleanser. Applying a little toner can relieve the dryness of the skin well and is very easy to be absorbed by the skin. Toner can also be combined with cotton wet compress, especially when applied to the skin where it is easy to dry, which is very helpful in alleviating rough skin.
The biggest difference between a toner wet compress and a facial mask is that it covers the mask, which may be a little sticky, but a gentle toner does not. So, I think the toner is cost-effective and very useful.
3. body lotion
I didn’t have the habit of applying body lotion from the beginning. I mainly felt that the body lotion was very sticky when applied to my body, but later I found that in autumn and winter, my skin was easy to peel and dry, and in some places it was easy to itch. At this time, I had to apply body lotion. After applying it for a winter, I found that the skin was not only very moist but also much white.
Apply body lotion and no body lotion skin is very different. It is not only the smell of the skin, but also in places where the skin is particularly prone to dehydration or dullness, apply a little body lotion and the skin state will be different.
Most of the body lotions nowadays are very fragrant and can be replaced with perfume directly. Therefore, after applying the body lotion, the smell emitted by the whole body will also make people feel relieved.
Also, we don’t need to apply body lotion to every part of the body. Just apply it to the places you think are easier to dry. I usually apply it on my neck, arms, elbows, knees, calves and heels. These areas are usually prone to static electricity and are also easy to dry, especially after taking a shower in autumn and winter to help the skin replenish moisture.
4. Hair care Coconut oil
Not only do our skin need oil, but our hair also needs oil. I used the most hair care essential oil at the beginning, but later I will use coconut oil to treat my hair.
The oily ingredients of coconut oil will be stronger than the oily ingredients of conditioner and hair mask , which is very suitable for dry hair, especially the hair that is prone to slit and rough hair at the ends.
I don’t think it was young, but when I get old, my hair is often dyed and permed, so my hair can easily become rough. Using coconut oil once a week can help the hair become soft and improve frizz.The same thing is true, the skin and hair need not only hydration, but also oil.
is OK. The above are 4 things I think I should use in advance when I am thirty or forty. It looks simple and inconspicuous, but you can see the effect after using it for a long time, which is of great help to skin care and hair care.
