During the Tet holiday, heavy makeup can make you look younger and fresher, but if not properly cleaned, it can leave residue on the skin, causing the skin to accumulate dirt, prone to acne and become more sensitive. Therefore, if you don’t want your skin to deteriorate significantly after Tet, don’t forget these 4 basic steps.
1. Use cleansing water to clean the surface, gently scrub
Use a suitable cleansing water for your skin and gently wipe off the makeup layer from the surface of the skin. Note that you should not scrub too hard to avoid damaging the skin. Proper cleansing helps remove dirt and impurities accumulated on the skin.
2. Use oil or wax, gel cleanser
After removing the preliminary makeup layer, use oil or wax, gel cleanser to remove the waterproof makeup layer and dirt accumulated in the pores. Apply the product to your face and gently massage to thoroughly cleanse the makeup. Then, use water to wash the face to remove the makeup layer.
3. Use a facial cleanser
Use a facial cleanser to cleanse deeper. Facial cleanser helps remove remaining impurities on the skin and cleanse the pores. Choose a product suitable for your skin type and gently massage it on your skin for a few minutes before rinsing your face.
4. Apply clay mask weekly
Clay has the ability to draw out dirt and excess oil from the skin, while helping to tighten pores and reduce blemishes. Choose the clay that suits your skin and apply the mask according to the instructions on the product.
Using clay masks continuously or too often in a week can make your skin become sensitive and prone to dehydration.
Especially for combination skin, you should not use only one type of mask for the entire face. You can use a green clay mask for areas that are prone to oiliness, such as the T-zone, and use a different type of mask for other areas. For acne-prone skin, apply clay mask directly on the acne spots and leave it overnight, the acne will dry out and reduce inflammation.
Some clay masks can be quite drying, due to their ability to tighten pores or control oil. Although they are very effective in fighting acne, they can also reduce the skin’s natural moisture, causing it to feel tight.
In addition, make sure to hydrate the body, eat healthy, and get enough sleep to enhance the skin’s regeneration process. Wish you a joyful and radiant Tet holiday!
