Problem skin care

Not every woman can be proud of her skin. For some, it remains a problem, even if adolescence is far in the past. How to take care of problem skin so that it looks healthy and beautiful? Let's talk about this in more detail.

Proper care for problem skin

For any type of skin, including problem skin, care begins with a cleansing procedure. It is necessary to cleanse the skin at least twice a day - in the morning and in the evening. Use plain water to wash your face. But try not to wash your face with chlorinated water from the faucet. At a minimum, it should be cleaned with a household filter. But it is best to take bottled water for washing.

For washing for problem skin, you can use special products - foams and gels for washing. It is important that they are designed specifically for your type. These products gently remove makeup residues and other impurities from the skin of the face, they regulate the production of sebum and make the face matte and beautiful.

After washing, be sure to wipe the skin with a cotton pad dipped in toner for problem skin. Many women neglect this point, believing that a simple wash is enough. But this is a completely wrong position. The toner removes cleanser residue, closes pores and lifts the skin. It is best to use these products from the same batch. This will enhance the effect.

Once or twice a week, it is imperative to do a deeper cleansing of the facial skin using peels and scrubs. These products are good at unclogging pores and removing old impurities. It is best to set aside time for the exfoliation before going to bed. Then, during the night, the skin will have time to rest and calm down. Again, use peels designed specifically for problem skin. During the procedure, do not try to rub the skin too hard so as not to damage it. Use lukewarm water to rinse off the exfoliator.

Masks for problem skin

Homemade masks are very beneficial for problem skin. They are in no way inferior to the expensive products of popular cosmetic companies. So, what can be prepared from what is in every home?

Here are some recipes for effective masks:

• Yeast mask. This mask is indispensable if there are pimples and other rashes on the skin. It dries them out, removes excess oil, gently cleanses the skin. This mask is useful for teenagers, but it is also useful for older women. Dissolve the yeast with water until it becomes a thick sour cream and apply the mixture to your face. You can do this with your fingers. Now lie down with the mask for about 20 minutes. The product should dry on the face. Remove this mask dry. Then wash your face with warm water.
• Gelatin mask perfectly treats acne and tightens pores... Take one activated charcoal tablet, crush it and mix with dry gelatin. You will need to take one spoonful. Then add warm water or milk - 1.5 tablespoons. Let the mixture sit for 3 minutes and then microwave for 10 seconds. This will allow the gelatin to dissolve completely. Now let the mask cool down a bit and apply on the face. It is better to do this with a brush, hammering in movements. Remove the gelatinous film after 20 minutes. Wash off the remnants of the mask with warm water.

Clay for problem skin

There are several types of cosmetic clay that can be used for problem skin:

Cosmetics for problem skin

Facial skin, which is far from ideal, needs a very responsible selection of decorative cosmetics. Pay attention to the labeling first. It must be noted on the packaging that this product is suitable for problem skin. Otherwise, you risk making yourself even more trouble.

Pay attention to the composition of the product, it should not contain mineral oils, petroleum jelly or cocoa butter. These products are not suitable for acne prone skin. There must be medical components among the components. These can be disinfectants, anti-couperous or others, depending on the problem.

Buy cosmetics that have a high degree of UV protection, as problem skin is very sensitive to the sun.
In general, try to use less concealers if you have problem skin. An extra layer of makeup clogs pores and causes new inflammation. As the saying goes, the problem must be treated, not masked.
