Beauty Problems that Caused by Your Skin Care Products

Some skin care products sometime don’t give good result like promised. Even sometime cause problems. Next, the expert suggestions to overcome problems that caused by your skin care product.

  • Lusterless skin
    Some face mask contains clay, for example is caolin that make skin lusterless and dry
    How to prevent: Don’t use mask more than once a week. After use mask, always dab your moisturizer that contains vitamin C to refine the skin.
  • Swollen eyes
    Some anti aging creams make eyes become swollen.
    How to prevent: Seek ingredient like rosemary, green tea extract or alpha lipoic acid to tighten skin.
  • Chapped lips
    Medicated lip balm can cause chapped lips. Balm that contains camphor or menthol can lose the dampness.
    How to prevent: Choose lip balm with ingredient like petrolatum, coconut oil and shea butter. Avoid lip balm with ‘mediated’ label.
  • Scrub face excessively and now your skin become coarse and irritate
    Outer skin layer has function as protection layer. If too often scrubbed, the skin become red, scaly and irritate. This case can occur if too much exfoliated with physical scrub microdermabration care in home or peel. Or dab some kinds of high potential renewal skin care ingredient like retinol, alpha hydroxy acids (AHA) and vitamin C (after dab 1 layer of skin care product with retinol, in the up side dabbed again skin care product that contains AHA and in the up of it, dabbed vitamin C skin care product).
    How to prevent: Stop the skin care product usage and toner, especially if contains alcohol that make the skin become dry. Give time to the skin to take a rest about 7 days. During that time, only clean your skin to give moisturizer. Use the smooth skin care product. After that, dab sunblock every morning to protects the skin that now become susceptible toward sunshine after every exfoliate. After that, use regularly skin care product for sensitive skin at least for 2 weeks.
    After some weeks, you can do this skin care: in the morning clean your face, give moisturizer and protection. Save renewal products (antioxidant cream, anti aging lotion and others) for used in the night. Don’t dab cosmetics in layers again without medical suggestion because can make exfoliate effect become so strong. Exfoliate once a week. If you still get irritate, maybe you use the wrong product.
