Although the Spring Festival has brought us a rare long vacation, it has also caused a lot of challenges to the skin: staying up all night to have fun without enough sleep, removing make-up in time or even going to bed with make-up, a large intake of oily and spicy food, going to a sunny place to travel did not take care of the sunscreen, go to the snowy and icy place to travel but warmth did not do a good job …… So, the complexion of the dark skin tone The skin is not shiny, pores are large, dark circles and fine lines appear, acne is uninvited, the skin darkened a color, accidentally frostbite and so on all kinds of skin crisis “muscle” is overwhelmed! To cope with these dangerous “muscle”, how should we do? 1, dull skin color without light It is hard to look forward to the annual Spring Festival, talk with parents, and friends to catch up, accidentally stayed up all night all-night. The lack of sleep will certainly affect the metabolic function of the skin, so that the skin transparency decreased, resulting in dull skin color, losing the natural luster of health. To improve this situation, the first thing to do is to adjust the work and rest, to ensure adequate sleep, to restore the normal metabolic function of the skin. Secondly, vitamin C can also be supplemented in moderation to help rejuvenate and whiten the skin. In the clinic, vitamin C is a common medication for melasma, skin pigmentation, melanosis and other conditions. This is precisely because vitamin C has a certain whitening effect on the skin. The “secret” lies in the fact that vitamin C can not only restore melanin, but also participate in the body’s tyrosine metabolism, but also with the role of melanin, lighten, reduce melanin deposition, and so on, multi-pronged, so as to play a strong role in whitening. As far as normal people are concerned, 100mg of vitamin C per day can be supplemented, but the vitamin C produced in the body can not meet the demand, it must be supplemented from food. Vitamin C-containing foods are tomatoes, chili peppers, cucumbers, lemons, citrus, fresh dates, strawberries and other fresh vegetables and fruits. However, only about 7% of the vitamin C ingested into the body reaches the skin, so oral intake is more significant for general health than topical skin whitening. Topical application of vitamin C is the most effective way to significantly increase the amount of vitamin C in the skin, which is 20 to 40 times higher than the same amount taken orally. However, to optimize transdermal absorption of vitamin C and maximize its efficacy, it is extremely important to have a precise formulation. Generally speaking, 20% levitamin C is the best choice. 2, acne: face problems Sweet, meat, fried, spicy food is too much, coupled with staying up late, irregular work and rest, resulting in “acne” and other skin sub-health problems come along. In fact, acne is a chronic inflammatory reaction of the sebaceous glands of the hair follicles, clinically from mild to severe can be manifested as pimples, papules, nodules, cysts and scarring. The cause of acne is this. The oil in the sebaceous glands is secreted through the follicular opening; due to problems such as skin keratinization and epithelial cell shedding, the follicular opening is blocked, and the oil accumulates in the sebaceous glands, slowly bulging out into small particles or rashes, forming closed pimples. Acne may be further aggravated due to problems with the environment, skin type, diet, and routine. To solve such acne problems, you first need to form good living habits, get enough sleep and have a calm mind. Eat a light diet with less spicy, fried and other stimulating foods. Using more foods rich in vitamin C and more vitamin B6, such as carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers, etc., will help improve acne. In addition, it is important to pay attention to the protection of the skin barrier in acne treatment. Although acne is an inflammation of the sebaceous glands of the hair follicles, if the skin barrier is protected, it can bring twice the result with half the effort for acne treatment. This is why it is important for acne sufferers to cleanse their skin properly. Choose a cleanser that controls oil and moisturizes the skin, and pay attention to the balance of oil and water; do not over-cleanse, and pay attention to the maintenance of the skin barrier function. If the symptoms of acne are more serious, you should consult a doctor in time. Depending on the type and severity of the lesions, you will be treated with internal medication, topical medication, physiotherapy, chemotherapy and other standardized treatments. Currently, retinoids are classified as the first-line drugs for acne treatment, and various photodynamic medical technologies are also developing rapidly and are highly favored. 3, after sun repair, four steps in place Choose the Spring Festival travelers are not a few, but the killing power of winter ultraviolet rays should not be underestimated. Especially those who choose to go to Southeast Asia and other tropical countries or the south of China’s coastal cities on vacation, if you do not do a good job of sunscreen, it is very likely to encounter skin redness, scalding, stinging, and even dehydration, dryness, until the pigmentation, peeling and other symptoms. In fact, do a good job of post-sun repair work, you can effectively reduce skin pigmentation, reduce the subsequent whitening work, to achieve twice the result with half the effort. (1) red hot: cold compress cooling. Generally speaking, 4 to 6 hours after the sun is the golden time for first aid. At this time the most important thing is to local cooling, calming and anti-inflammatory, you can use chilled milk or saline, green tea on the injured parts, from the source to reduce the loss of skin moisture and the production of after-sun spots. (2) dry and tight: hydration and moisturizing. In the sunshine heat, sweating and cold water after wet compresses, the skin water evaporation, extreme dehydration, this time you can use hydration of the mask or gel. However, do not use products containing flavors, collagen ingredients or homemade masks, the more single product ingredients, the better, to prevent allergies. You should also drink more water to replenish the lost water in the body. (3) Hyperpigmentation: whitening and hydration. After the acute phase of inflammation, it is excessive to the post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation period. At this time, the skin is in a relatively stable period, you can use some products containing vitamin C, vitamin E and other whitening ingredients to reduce the production of hyperpigmentation and accelerate its return, and continue to sunscreen, but also pay attention to do a good job of hydration support. (4) peeling and crusting: soften and retain. Skin in the recovery period, the original epidermis mild peeling, gradually replaced by newborn epidermis, but these epidermis is like a newborn baby, in a fragile and sensitive period, can not be forcibly torn off. At this time, you can apply topical lotions and creams without alcohol and other irritating ingredients to soften the scabs and apply them to the skin surface to rebuild the skin barrier as soon as possible.
