Masks for problem skin
Problematic skin does not add beauty to any person, because the face cannot be hidden under clothes. Therefore, all redness, pimples, peeling and other imperfections are always visible to others. But it is not only possible, but also necessary to fight against problem skin. This struggle lies in the correct daily care and, of course, the use of various masks for problem skin.
Features of problem skin
Problem skin is characterized by the presence of redness, acne, enlarged pores. Often such skin has an unhealthy color, constantly flakes off. For all people, and for women in particular, problem skin is a source of constant problems, not only cosmetic, but also psychological. Therefore, it is necessary to take care of such skin especially carefully.
The main task of daily care for problem skin is the timely and thorough removal of excess dirt and grease, as they cause clogging and inflammation of the pores. The most problematic areas are the forehead, nose and cheeks.
Actually, it is the abundance of sebaceous secretions that determines the peculiarities of caring for problem skin, since such an oily plaque simply cannot be removed with the help of ordinary washing with water. By the way, the use of hot water also does not solve the problem, and sometimes aggravates it, as it contributes to an even more abundant secretion of sebum, and even expands the pores. But, according to reviews, masks for problem skin help to cope with this problem.
Care rules and use of masks for problem skin
Cleansing masks for problem skin play an important role in proper care. For daily washing, neutral cosmetics specifically designed for problem skin are well suited. Cosmetologists recommend applying foam, soap or washing gel to the skin using a special brush. Only the movements should not be sharp and traumatic, but smooth and soft. The water temperature should not be hot or cold. Ideal is 36.5 degrees.
Do not get too carried away with washing, especially with problem skin. Twice a day is quite enough, since excessive removal of residual fat from the face stimulates its production, so the situation may even worsen.
If you have problem skin, do not rub it with a towel after washing, but simply pat it dry. And before applying the cream to your face, let the skin dry properly.
Cleansing masks for problem skin should not be used more than 1-2 times a week. The situation is the same as with washing: the more often this procedure is carried out, the more actively the sebaceous glands begin to work.
