Hello everyone, I am Dr. Yuan, a professional dermatologist, who has been using professional knowledge to solve your various skin troubles.
Recently, many people always ask me:
Some people say that this can whiten and resist aging, is it true?
I took a closer look at the ones with the largest number of votes… Mom, it was so bad!
Many of them are folk remedies without scientific basis. Not only do they have no effect, but some even cause damage to the skin. I really took them!
Wash face with white vinegar, whiten and remove acne?
It doesn’t exist!
Washing your face like this will destroy the skin barrier!
Although vinegar does have [whitening] effect to a certain extent, dermatologists will use glacial acetic acid for clinical treatment of some infectious diseases, and whitening will occur after smearing.
However, [whitening] and [whitening] are not neighbors, and the distance is still far away!
Moreover, the irritation of vinegar to skin is very obvious. Even professionals may not be accurate in controlling the concentration and use time of vinegar.
Don’t use vinegar even if you have acne! First of all, this does not diminish inflammation. Second, vinegar will leave a deep color. The acne is not good, the mark will be left first, it must not be what you want ~
If whitening and acne removal were really so simple, there would not be countless cosmetics scientists devoting themselves to developing related functional ingredients!
Can ginger stick to skin to remove moisture?
Ginger is a common condiment and a traditional Chinese medicine, which mainly has the effect of dispelling cold and detoxifying. If combined with other traditional Chinese medicines, it can solve some skin problems to a certain extent.
But!
If only a simple patch is applied to the problem skin, especially the skin with moisture (inflammatory eczema in most cases), this time will not only fail to solve the problem, but may also cause further damage to the inflammatory skin, and the rash will become redder, wetter and more itchy instead.
Therefore, ginger is still mixed with brown sugar, so take it orally.
Homemade facial mask, save money and protect skin?
Wake up!
Cosmetics research and development and production have strict requirements. Many cosmetics enterprises have GMP production workshops, which are produced according to the sanitary conditions of drugs.
Before regular products reach consumers, many safety inspection procedures need to be carried out to ensure the safety of cosmetics for long-term use.
Of course, the DIY process cannot meet the GMP requirements, and the stability of skin care products so [made] is even more worrying!
The self-made facial mask is indeed rich in nutrition and is the medium for many microorganisms… If there is no good system to maintain it, bacteria will really be applied to the face!
Is saving money important or is your face important?
Smear egg white to remove blackheads?
Egg white itself has certain stickiness, which can be dried and condensed when smeared on the nose, and can be torn with some blackheads after drying thoroughly.
But!
The principle of this blackhead removal method is the same as that of the blackhead removal nose patch, which is a kind of physical pulling. Before long, the expanded pores will turn black again…
If this method is repeatedly cleaned, pores will be pulled passively repeatedly, and pore expansion is obvious, making it even more difficult to turn back!
Vaseline massage, blackheads disappear?
Vaseline is a classic skin sealing emollient with many benefits!
Now a red book recommends that you can massage your nose to remove blackheads, which surprises dermatologists.
Think carefully, from the principle of blackhead removal, Vaseline can neither dissolve the corner bolts on the surface of blackheads nor directly pull blackheads!
On the contrary, smearing moistens the skin of large oil fields, and it is impossible for blackheads to appear on the skin surface obediently.
Moreover, oily skin has been exposed to Vaseline for a long time, which has a very good effect on nourishing acne. The possibility of blackheads escalating into follicular papules is not without it.
White granulated sugar, salt rub face, exfoliate?
Your face is not bark!
Rubbing your face with white granulated sugar or salt feels like a sudden whim of the cook… [skin care bloggers] people probably think that sugar or salt can remove cutin from the skin surface and make the skin appear crystal clear.
But!
Polygonal particles like sugar or salt are themselves a kind of physical friction stimulation. Even if they are fully dissolved, they will also affect the sebum membrane on the skin surface, let alone rub directly.
The cutin is not removed well, but it hurts the skin barrier!
Wash your face alternately with hot and cold water to shrink pores?
Pore enlargement is sometimes a sequelae of skin inflammation, sometimes caused by sun exposure, and more often a manifestation of skin aging … Just like wrinkles or sagging, it ruthlessly betrays your true age.
Therefore, like wrinkles, pores that win the years are good pores.
However, washing face alternately with hot and cold water can shrink pores, which is a bit exaggerated!
When contacting hot water, pores on the skin surface expand moderately, which is the normal reaction of the skin.
Immediately use cold water to shrink pores, which is also based on the expansion of pores…
You said that this method is useless, even if it is used to wash face alternately with cold and hot water for skin with inflammation or sensitivity, it is entirely possible to cause skin irritation reaction to water temperature, which may aggravate skin inflammation or sensitivity instead!
Toner wipe, secondary cleaning?
Toner is a product that fairies like to use, because after using it, your face will be very fresh and you will feel moisturized properly ~
But!
In basic skin care, toner is not a necessary step!
There is even less basis for defining toner as secondary cleaning.
Under normal circumstances, the current facial cleanser can already clean the skin, and then wipe the face with toner, which is actually only the need for skin feeling or moistening the skin.
Therefore, you can use it as you like, and there is no such thing as “secondary cleaning”.
Wash face with rice washing water, whiten and remove spots?
For skin whitening effect, photoelectric therapy in medical cosmetology should be the king in the industry!
Even so, it is not a dozen photoelectric, the face can be like a shelled egg, still need to cooperate with sun protection, do a good job of repair.
I would like to tell you that if the whitening and freckle removing effect in skin care products can exceed 10%, it will be regarded as a myth in the industry!
Returning to the rice washing water to wash your face, the rice washing water contains a certain amount of trace elements, vitamin B and E. If these alone can whiten and remove spots, all Asians can become Fan Bingbing.
Rice has gone through many processes to reach our dining table from the fields. So, can you guarantee that the rice washing water is absolutely clean?
If there are already some skin problems, don’t be greedy for small losses and big losses!
Potato chips apply to the face to remove dark circles?
When I first saw this statement, my heart…
Dark circles under the eyes have always been a difficult problem in the industry, and it is often necessary to deal with the causes according to the source of dark circles under the eyes.
For example, pigment type is aimed at pigment formation, circulation type is aimed at circulation disorder, etc.
More often than not, dark circles can only achieve the effect of improvement by adjusting the rhythm of life and improving sleep conditions!
Back to potato chips, they are rich in starch and vitamin B, but there is no reasonable explanation for improving dark circles.
In addition, the soil bean juice is a little irritating. If it is applied to the eyes with fragile skin, once there is a reaction, the dark circles under the eyes can really become inconspicuous.
Because it turned into edema red rim of the eye!
At the end of the day, it is because the above methods are simple and easy to obtain, and it seems that the big skin problems can be solved with low cost that these rumors are all the rage.
I hope everyone can have simple identification ability, scientific skin care, rational grass planting, do not rush for quick success and instant benefits.
