How to use foam for washing the face?
Regular and high-quality skin cleansing is a must for women who care about the beauty and freshness of their face. The modern cosmetic market offers a wide range of care products, including foams for washing.
Correct water temperature
The skin is influenced not only by the cleansing agents, but also by the temperature of the water. It shouldn't be hot or icy, it's better to avoid extremes. Warm water is optimal for starting washing, but you can finish the procedure cool or cold, if there are no contraindications, so that the pores close after cleansing, and the skin remains clean longer.
Foam for washing is a versatile product that combines qualities such as softness of the effect on the skin and excellent cleansing properties of its active ingredients... This is made possible by its lightest porous texture.
Preparation
Foam for washing is recommended for girls and women with dry, normal and combination skin. For oily skin, foam, of course, is not contraindicated, however, in this case, a cleansing gel is better suited, since it has a thick and dense texture and acts on the face for a longer time.
Before applying the foam, you need to prepare the skin of the face - moisturize it.
The foam starts working normally only on contact with water.
First, wash off most of the makeup from your face with micellar or plain water. After the layer of cosmetics has been washed off, you can apply the foam.
Step by step technology
It is not difficult to use foam for washing your face. First you need to moisturize your skin well.Then apply a small amount of the foam to your hand and spread it over your fingertips. Smoothly massage the product over the skin of the face.
More attention should be paid to problem areas, places with the most oily skin. Do not forget about the area under the lower lip, the tip of the nose. It is recommended to treat the forehead up to the hairline. Wait a few seconds for the cleansing ingredients to do their job in the pores of the skin. Then rinse off the foam with cool water to tighten the pores a little.
Do not forget to do a control rinsing of your face at the end of washing. For this, pre-prepared water is suitable, preferably boiled, and not hard tap water. For the last rinse, filtered water or a decoction of chamomile or nettle is also suitable. The herbs can be purchased at the pharmacy.
How often can you apply?
In washing, as in everything else, reasonable measure is important. It is recommended to use the foam for washing twice a day. In the evening, make-up, sebum and dirt accumulated during the day are washed off. In the morning, you also need to wash yourself, since overnight the skin loses moisture, sebum is released, to which various microorganisms and dust can adhere from the bed linen.
More frequent use of foams for washing is necessary only in case of frequent makeup changes or high pollution of the external environment, for example, if a girl works in a production that is aggressive to the skin. Unreasonable frequent washing contributes to the disruption of the natural balance of the epidermis, the occurrence of inflammation, and excessive production of sebum.
When choosing a foam for washing, it is important to pay attention to its composition, as it may contain potentially allergenic components such as SLS, SLES, SMS, mineral oils and parabens. If there are doubts about the safety of exposure to the skin, then it is better to choose another, more acceptable option. When buying, be sure to check what type of skin the product is intended for, so as not to worsen its condition.
