For a woman, life is really hard:
Every month, I have to endure the discomfort and even pain brought by my great aunt. After deciding to become a mother, she will face the unforgettable pain brought by childbirth…….
Even his own skin is reluctant to become an ally in the struggle against life and makes life more difficult from time to time.
For example, the incidence rate of sensitive skin problems in women is generally higher than that in men, with 40% ~ 55.98% for Asian women and 36.1% for Chinese women, which means that one in three girls is troubled by sensitive skin. [1]
Especially in autumn and winter, this problem appears more intensively.
Why are there so many people with sensitive skin? And the incidence rate of girls is so high?
There is a lot of knowledge here!
I have a good face, why have I become a sensitive muscle?
Sensitive skin is mainly divided into internal and external causes.
Internal factors mainly include heredity, age, sex, race and other factors. It is difficult for us to treat sensitive skin through internal factors.
Furthermore, the occurrence of sensitive skin is related to peripheral nerve dysfunction and central nerve function changes, especially to the enhancement of skin nerve response.
How do you understand this?
For example, skin nerve is like an infrared anti-theft device. Under normal circumstances, when unknown personnel break in, it will call the police.
If your skin nerves become extremely sensitive, even if only one particle of dust drifts in, it will call the police crazily.
Frequent alarms can cause skin problems, which are manifested in some sensitive symptoms on the skin, such as itching, small rashes, etc.
In addition, sensitive skin is prone to skin inflammatory reaction due to barrier function damage or neurological dysfunction, further damaging skin and leading to vicious circle.
There are also many external factors of sensitive skin, probably including environmental, chemical, lifestyle and iatrogenic factors.
Then why is it easier for girls’ skin to become sensitive muscles?
They frequently use all kinds of skin care products on weekdays and intensively perform some medical and beauty operations, which easily increases the possibility of skin sensitivity.
Coupled with the wrong skin care method, let it deeply into the mire of [sensitivity]:
Excessive application of facial mask
Excessive application of facial mask can easily lead to over-hydration of skin, which can easily lead to skin sensitivity and other problems.
Moreover, the composition of some facial masks is relatively complex, which may add burden to the skin when used under sensitive skin conditions.
Daily skin care suggests that facial mask should not be applied too much, only 2 ~ 3 times a week, each time for no more than 15 minutes.
Wrong cleaning
Makeup remover products, facial cleanser, facial cleanser… Each of them is Battle with the sebum membrane and stratum corneum of the skin.
However, the Battle force of the skin is limited. If the foreign enemy is too strong, it will appear tight, dry, red and other signals, warning you that you have been over-cleaned.
What is more terrible than the wrong method is the wrong concept of skin care.
These two skin care concepts are undesirable.
Because of sensitivity, skin care products are not used.
Sensitive muscles themselves have the problem of imperfect sebum membrane function. When encountering some external stimuli, they are more prone to redness, itching, heat and other conditions than normal skin.
Excessive dependence on drugs, not paying attention to normal nursing
This method is not desirable. For example, long-term external use of glucocorticoid drugs will lead to skin thinning, atrophy, capillary hyperplasia and more sensitive possibility.
How can I save my sensitive skin?
Pay attention to sun protection
The first is hard sunscreen. It is also possible to apply sunscreen suitable for sensitive muscles, but it is best to wash it off and apply moisturizing products immediately when returning indoors.
Do not overclean
For most sensitive muscles, it is enough to use facial cleanser once a day. At the same time, choose facial cleanser suitable for sensitive skin, avoid soap-based facial cleanser, and do not touch products such as scrub cream and facial cleanser.
Use products that can help skin repair itself.
When it comes to skin care, many people think of skin care products in the first place. All kinds of water, essence and cream are applied hard to the face, but sometimes we can change our thinking and try some new possibilities.
For example, medical dressings that many small partners do not know are worth a try.
Medical dressing has many advantages. It is safe and sterile. It is widely used in clinical practice and has the functions of isolation, moisturizing and promoting wound healing.
When it is applied to the face, it is like adding a protective cover to the face, providing a wet environment and helping the skin repair itself.
