The air conditioner in the office is madly swallowing the moisture in our skin, and almost every female colleague puts a bottle of spray on the table at the same time.
With just one click, the fine mist-like water droplets instantly make you feel as clean as water, but after a few minutes, your face feels drier and slightly tingling! what happened? !
The selection and use of the spray is not as simple as "one touch", you may have overlooked some details, so that the skin is not as soft as expected.
Myth 1: The higher the mineral content in hot spring spray water, the better
In fact, the active exchange process between the hot spring water and the skin is only about one minute. The higher the salt content of the spring water, the shorter the stay time. After the water evaporates, the minerals and salts that have not been absorbed by the skin will stay on the surface of the skin. The higher the content of water, the more salt crystals left on the skin surface. Since salt is absorbent, the salt crystals on the skin surface will absorb water from the inside of the skin to the outside, so the water will not be replenished, but it will cause dehydration.
Misunderstanding 2: In order to fully exchange the hot spring water with the skin, the longer the stay, the better
When the water remaining on the skin is volatilized, the salt crystals on the surface of the skin will absorb water from the inside of the skin to the outside, but will take away the moisture inside the skin, so in order to better replenish the water, the appropriate time is to let the skin and water contact for a while. minutes or so, then gently wick away the moisture with a cotton washcloth.
Misunderstanding 3: Hot spring water can be used as a spray to replenish water
Not all hot spring water is suitable for spray hydration, and the spring water suitable for spray should choose active spring water dedicated to dermatology. If used improperly, it can cause damage to the skin. For example, hot spring water for rheumatism contains high concentrations of sulfur and phosphorus elements, and hot spring water for digestive tract problems contains high concentrations of chloride ions, which can cause irritation to normal and sensitive skin.
Misunderstanding 4: The spray is only used to care for the facial skin
If you think that sprays are only for pampering your face, then you are overkill. Because the skin on the face usually gets more care, the wrinkles on the neck can reveal the secrets of your age unknowingly. A spray with good performance can also soothe and calm the skin while hydrating the face. When purchasing a spray, you can judge whether it contains a high level of salt by taste. The heavier the salty taste, the more salt it contains. The higher it is, the greater the irritation to the skin.
