In the past decade, the biggest change in the maintenance market is that everyone needs a can of cream that is in season. Creams are no longer just a skin saver for ultra-dry skin in winter, different textures allow different skin types to find corresponding strategies. Especially in early summer, many top brands even offer refreshing versions of creams, allowing them to be used in the sticky summer months, giving the skin deep hydration and repair, while comfortably moisturizing the skin's surface.
Temiyayo A., MD"Regardless of the type, you need to apply a cream at the end of your treatment, the cream can 'seal' the gaps between the skins, allowing the moisture in the skin to stay longer longer, and a good cream can keep the skin in the healthiest and most pampered state," says Ogunleye. The following tips are pertinent tips for choosing creams for different skin types. Dior Technology Skin Care Room also found that in the past, everyone thought that the cream only needed to be rubbed when it was dry, thinking that the cream only acted on the surface of the skin, but the cream was not only a moisturizing cover, but also a consolidated glue between cells, which could help the skin be healthier up and down.
Dry mature skin.
Although the ingredients and formulations of each cream are different, how you feel on your skin is the key to your decision to buy it. Dr. Melanie Palm, a San Diego** physician in San Diego, USA, said: "Regardless of your skin type, it can happen that you are prone to dryness at some point, and if you are normal or oily, but you still feel dry from time to time, it is likely to be caused by climate change, and it may be that you are used to washing your face with hot water, which causes dryness." "Alternatively, it can also be due to regular aesthetic lasers, and the skin surface is dry due to internal energy after surgery. So, when your skin feels dry, or you have dry skin in the desert form, and Dr. Palm says, "Itching, scaling, peeling, roughness to the touch, and redness are typical symptoms of fairly dry skin." "You have to be more cautious when choosing a cream.
First of all, you must know what level of consistency your cream must have, the richer the cream with a lot of oil, it will definitely soothe the over-dry state in an instant. The next step is to check the ingredients, and Dr. Palm recommends that the cream should contain formulas such as glycerin, ceramides, free fatty acids, squalane, and hyaluronic acid. "All creams have moisturizing properties that help fight dryness during the winter months, but not all moisturizing ingredients are created equal: moisturizers (such as glycerin, hyaluronic acid and aloe vera) attract and retain moisture, while emollients and occlusives (including squalane and ceramides) strengthen the moisture barrier to prevent water loss and keep moisture within," she says.
Oily mixed skin.
People who are oily or acne-prone know that it is difficult to find the right cream, there are many skin care products in the form of clear gels on the market, but they may not be what this type of skin wants, they can also have a light moisturizer, which can be comfortably extended on the skin, and even, you may not know, oily skin needs more moisture. "I think a lot of people who are prone to acne or oiliness will use a lot of irritating cleansers to wash away excess oil from their faces, but they will also remove the good oil needed to keep the barrier intact," says D**id Kim, an aesthetic physician at IDRISS in New York City. So don't think that oily skin is super oily and doesn't need moisturizing. Also, if you're prone to acne, you need to moisturize even more, because acne skin can make it drier if you're using products that contain acids or salicylic acid. ”
The goal for oily skin is to find a moisturizer that's gentle enough to use without feeling suffocating, preferably one that absorbs quickly and barely feels its presence. Dior Essence Regenerating Rose Rejuvenating Cream, a lightweight version that utilises oil-in-water technology with almost 93 aqueous active ingredients, reveals a light cheese texture that is refreshing even when applied heavily. Lancome has also launched the Absolutely Perfect** Rose Repair Cream Light Edition, which has also made a considerable change in the ratio of water and oil, and is a lightweight, refreshing and well-absorbed melted cream texture. La Mer has upgraded the most popular souff cream in Asia, in addition to the light and soft texture, it also hopes to help the skin have the effect of anti-aging repair and stable skin condition, which is suitable for combination and oily skin. Physician D**id Kim advises that a lightweight moisturizer like this is a good choice for people with oily or acne-prone skins, saying: "Many oil-free moisturizers contain silicones or similar ingredients, which are what oily skin needs most because silicones lock in moisture, and hyaluronic acid and other active ingredients are also great ingredients."
How to choose a cream for sensitive and weak skin.
How do I know if my ** is sensitive? Physician Azadeh Shirazi says, "Sensitive people are more likely to respond to stimuli such as products, hot and cold temperatures, wind, and even emotions. Such as redness, itching, stinging or burning. "When a person's ** is really sensitive, the protective barrier cannot work effectively, in addition to causing the skin to become thinner, it will also allow irritants to penetrate into the **, causing repeated vicious cycle of inflammation and burning sensation. A thinning skin barrier can also lead to excessive water loss, which is why dryness is almost always associated with sensitivity.
Ingredients such as fatty acids, ceramides, squalane, hyaluronic acid, peptides, allantoin, vitamin B3, lipids and glycerin are all beneficial, and if they contain natural oils and vegetable oils, such as olive oil, sunflower oil and jojoba oil, etc., it is quite suitable for sensitive skin. If you're very sensitive, it's important to avoid alcohol, fragrances, and the absence of potential irritants like parabens, which can all make ** drier.
How can I make a cream more effective?
If you choose a cream that suits your skin type, let's remind you how to use it in order to get twice the result with half the effort.
1.Wait for time, no matter how many times you use during the maintenance step, but keep in mind that in the middle of each step, you have to wait a few minutes for the subsequent product to penetrate and absorb more easily. For example, if we apply a cream immediately after applying a serum, the ingredients of the serum may not have time to penetrate**, and the effect will be greatly reduced.
2.For the right amount, says the skincare experts at Miin Cosmetics: "The ideal dosage is one almond-sized size for the face, and if you also want to rub directly into the neck and décolleté (which you should do), you should use two almonds." "That's enough to moisturize well enough to allow the product to be absorbed, thus avoiding that dreaded heaviness.
Trendy and new season When combined with massage, the way you apply the cream is even more important. Therefore, after picking up the almond-sized amount, first spread it by making a circular upward on the **, this practice can stimulate blood circulation, which is very important for activating ** and making the ingredient easier to penetrate and absorb.
