Skin care to me is one of the most important things in my life. Like many of you, I put most of my emphasis on skin care at night before I go to bed. It is because I have read many researches saying skin cells function actively at nighttime. Recently, I have read a research saying that skin care in the morning is as important as it is at the night. So, I really want to share with you so that we do not miss the right time to get a pretty face.
Skin cells need water to live and to be healthy. The supply of sufficient amount of water is therefore a way to keep your skin healthy. There is a belief that drinking a glass of water immediately after your waking up is good for your skin and digestive system. Later on, some people are saying by drinking salty water instead of pure water is even better. There is no doubt for the goodness that offered by salty water to the digestive system, but the morning is not the right time for salty water. Instead of salty water, you are advised to drink honey.
Facial cleansing to many of you is a must in the morning as it wakes you up. You have to be careful in the way that you cleanse your face in the morning. For those who have normal or oil skin, you can use your facial cleanser. For those having delicate and sensitive skin, your skin can be too dry and sensitive to use facial cleanser. You can simple cleanse your face with water.
Other than the basic cleansing step, you can take 3 minutes to nourish your face. You may think 3 minutes are too short for a mask. In fact, the skin cells absorb most actively during the first 5 minutes for a 20-minute facial treatment. A 3-minute facial treatment is not bad. Usually, I apply wash-off mask while I am brushing my teeth. These wash-off masks are often in gel or cream form so that the mask does not fall off.
After my mask treatment, I apply essence and lotion. For a long period of time, I think essence is best to apply at night. According to some professional advices, morning is the best time for such essence to be absorbed. That means, if you have some expensive and effective skin care products, please remember to apply them in the morning for best result. To further enhance the result, you can use your palm for help. Put your palm onto your face and let the heat pass from your palm to your face for a few seconds.
Many people feel that massage is a relaxing enjoyment. While you can enjoy the massage in resorts, you can do your facial massage every morning at home. Lymphatic massage is effective at combating the puffy face and eyes. There are three sets of massage that you can follow. The first set is massage on the two side of your face. Use your fist to massage from chin and upward. The second set starts from your outer eye corner to your ear. You can press and hold with your index finger. The final set is to massage your neck downwardly.
