How often do you use soap-based facial cleanser?
Use healthy muscle or oil skin 1~2 times a week, but don't waste it every day. Wash your face as gently as possible, especially when your skin is fragile in winter. Never "do" your face. Although soap-based facial cleanser has better cleaning power, it is also more irritating to the skin, so it can't be used often. Use it twice a week for healthy or oily skin and once a week for sensitive skin. You can usually wash your face with ordinary gentle facial cleanser. If you use soap-based facial cleanser too many times, it may have a bad influence on your skin. Regular use of soap-based facial cleanser with strong cleaning power will make the cuticle of skin thinner, destroy the barrier of skin and make skin sensitive. When using soap-based facial cleanser, first wet your hands and face with clear water, then apply a proper amount of soap-based facial cleanser to your palm, add a little water, gently rub out foam, apply the foam to your face, and gently massage in circles. Don't wash it off after applying facial cleanser. Be sure to stay on your face for enough time, so that the cleaning effect will be better. In some places with more oil secretion, you can massage more and clean up the garbage in the pores of the skin. After the massage, wash off the foam on your face with clear water, so that washing your face is over. When washing your face, you should pay attention to the position of details on your face, such as hairline. Both sides of the nose, etc. These positions are easy to leave facial cleanser, which is a burden on the skin.
When do you use soap-based facial cleanser?
Soap base is a common surfactant, that is, detergent, which has ideal cleaning ability, but it also does some harm to the skin. Soap-based cleaning ingredients usually consist of fatty acids and sodium hydroxide, namely oil and alkali. If you see words like "XX sodium fatty acid" or "XX sodium stearate" in the ingredients list of cleaning products, you can basically judge that this product contains soap-based ingredients.
1, pay attention to the frequency of use, if your skin is not so oily, once a week is totally fine. Please use mild facial cleanser for daily cleaning.
2. Please fully foam the facial cleanser. Many girls think that the amount of a adzuki bean or a peanut is not enough to clean the whole face. However, this amount can produce a lot of foam under the action of foaming net, which is enough for you to clean your face.
Please start from the t area. In view of the fact that most girls who love to use soap-based products have oily skin and are prone to blackheads and closed mouths, please take care of the T area first when cleansing. Clean T area in place can prevent blackheads and closed mouth to some extent.
What is soap-based cleansing?
Soap-based facial cleanser is the most common raw material in the early days, which is made of a mixture of strong alkali and fatty acid, so you can't see any word "soap-based" in the ingredient list ~ it is usually at the front of the ingredient list, as long as you find both fatty acid and strong alkali, you can basically judge that it is soap-based facial cleanser. But many times, because fatty acids combine with strong alkali to produce saponification reaction, the ingredients list is usually fatty acid salts, such as sodium myristate/potassium, sodium laurate/potassium and sodium palmitate/potassium, which can also be considered as soap-based cleansing. Although it is difficult to understand fatty acid salts, sodium laurate/potassium and sodium myristate/potassium have the best water solubility and super cleaning power, and are also "soap-based regulars" on the list of cleansing ingredients. Unfortunately, they are also the most irritating and harmful to the skin. In addition, there is a cold sodium dodecyl sulfate, commonly known as SLS, which is also very irritating and may lead to acne, such as the well-known Stafford cleanser. This is the real reason for using it to keep silent. )
Is soap-based cleansing completely unusable?
Nowadays, many people have demonized soap base and put it in the cold box. Indeed, soap-based cleansing is incompatible with our acidic skin environment (PH is about 8~9), but it is compatible with oil and can help us take away excess oil quickly. Like a big oil skin, if you want to clean your face, you have to rely on our big soap base. At the same time, talking about ingredients without dosage is hooliganism. Soap is easily washed away by water and will not remain on the skin. If you only use it occasionally to wash your face, it is difficult to reach the level of skin damage. Moreover, many well-known brands now add mild surfactants to their products to reduce the tension and irritation of soap-based facial cleanser and improve the quality of soap-based facial cleanser. The common ones are: sodium methyl cocoyl taurate and potassium cocoyl glycinate. The most typical big brands, CPB and POLA, are actually soap-based cleaners. I feel that when amino acid cleansing is popular, they are still very firm on soap base, which shows that soap base is not heinous! It's just that soap base requires higher skin quality, such as muscle health or oily skin. Just use 1~2 times a week. Don't get used to it every day. Usually try to use gentle cleansing, especially when the skin is fragile in winter. Never "do" your face.
