Many people blindly believe that applying a facial mask at home can achieve the effect of skin care, and even massage the skin at home in order to achieve the effect of skin care. However, they do not know that skin massage is not that simple. If the operation is wrong, It may even accelerate skin aging and increase skin burden. The result is more gain than gain.
1. Some people think that if they go to a beauty salon for facial treatment, their skin will become thinner and thinner
In fact, as long as you choose a regular beauty salon and a qualified beautician, these problems will not occur. . The skin becomes thinner and thinner unless you have used functional skin care products, such as rapid whitening or freckle removal, and acne removal. If the beautician's massage technique is too heavy and the time is too long, it will also make the skin thinner (there are too many unqualified beauticians now)
2. Some people think that it is not enough to massage and apply facial mask at home. It can achieve maintenance effects
Facial massage techniques actually play a very important role in regular nursing effects and are not easy to master. Therefore, it is really not easy to do skin texture massage and acupuncture point stimulation at home, even with a professional The beautician also cannot massage his own skin well.
And there are no beauty-related equipment at home. For example, Ossan steam (can open pores, soften cuticles, promote mild perspiration of the skin, accelerate skin blood circulation, etc.) Ultrasound (can transport the nutrients of the essence directly to the basal layer of the skin, enhancing absorption). Apply it at home on a daily basis. They only work on the stratum corneum (the outermost layer of the skin).
3: Some people think that the effect of skin care depends on the beauty salon
In fact, many people think so, and some even think that the skin gets better because they stop sleeping. Well, the effect of drinking honey is probably due to the recent change of skin care products. If your skin is not good, it means that the care done by the beauty salon is ineffective. Haha, I'm talking about some people, not everyone. In fact, you should go to a beauty salon once a week, just like a toothbrushing ceremony. Daily care at home is still very important. Not all problems can be solved by going to a beauty salon. The beauty salon will provide assistance and guide you in daily care and diet. What you need to pay attention to in life depends on whether you can persist in it. Just like students from good universities are not necessarily good students, right? Moreover, some people spend three days fishing and two days drying nets, and do not even adhere to basic weekly care.
4. Some people hope to see results in a short period of time
In fact, your acne or wrinkles, yellowish spots and spots on your face are not formed in a short period of time. Well, if not, it is against the laws of nature for you to expect immediate results in a short period of time. That is why there are so many small manufacturers producing cosmetics containing banned ingredients to meet the needs of such customers. The price behind all quick results is your skin health and body health as the foundation.
In the entire facial care process, skin massage care is recognized as the most important link. The quality of the massage is an important indicator of the beauty effect.
