Useful things you never put on your face

in #body6 years ago

You can look for alternative and natural ways to nourish the skin of your face, protect yourself from wrinkles or relieve acne, but not everything that is natural is appropriate for this delicate area.

What things are considered useful to use in your daily routine in facial skin care?

Coconut oil

If you have oily skin, coconut oil is not right for you. It is an essential ingredient in many home facial masks and is widely promoted as incredibly useful, full of antioxidants and fatty acids that hydrate in depth.

However, the use of coconut oil on oily skin can do much more harm than help. Its too oily structure clogs the pores and forms something like a plug that causes more blackheads, even more purulent breakthroughs and increased sebum.

Lemon and lemon juice

Another very used ingredient in home facial masks - the lemon, is actually among the most recommended in skin care. It is useful for consumption, but not for application externally, even less on the tender skin of the face. Its acids can cause burning, called phytophotodermatitis - a type of chemical burn.

Soap

Cleansing the face skin is a much more delicate process than most people suggest. It is very difficult to find the right products for your skin type to maintain the right balance.

The use of soap is among the banned skin care procedures since it removes excess sebum but removes the natural oils required for skin balance.

Using home scrubs

Many recipe for home exfoliating masks contain dangerous ingredients such as sugar, salt, bread soda, lemon juice, mayonnaise, mangoes, crushed nuts. All of them can cause skin micro-injuries, chemical burns and surface ruptures, which pose a risk of larger skin problems later on.

Exposed sunscreen creams

The use of any expired cosmetic products is not recommended, but sunscreen creams and lotions are particularly dangerous because they leak harmful UV rays. This places you at a high risk of burns, skin irritation, skin cancer.
