The skincare principle focuses on three balances

When it comes to skincare, I've recently come to realize the importance of balancing three key factors. By maintaining these balances, the skin can stay in a healthy and stable condition over time. Here are my personal insights: I like to call it the "Three Balances." These three balances are: the balance of renewal and metabolism, the balance of moisture and oil, and the balance of damage protection and repair. These principles have played a significant role in my daily skincare routine, helping me keep my skin looking and feeling its best. 1. Renewal and Metabolism Balance: Our skin's lower layers are constantly growing, going through normal metabolic processes, and shedding. Having too much or too little shedding of the outermost skin layer can cause problems. Excessive shedding may lead to decreased moisture retention, resulting in dryness and sensitivity. On the other hand, if the skin's surface layer is too thick, it may appear dull. So, it's important to find an appropriate exfoliation method to maintain this balance. 2. Moisture and Oil Balance: Maintaining the right balance of moisture and oil in the skin is equally important. Dehydrated skin can become dry and rough, while an excess of oil can lead to enlarged pores, a greasy complexion, and increased sensitivity. I've found that using moisturizing products and oil-control products tailored to my skin type has helped me achieve this balance, leaving my skin feeling refreshed. 3. Damage Protection and Repair Balance: Lastly, we must pay attention to protecting and repairing our skin. The skin does have a natural defense mechanism to self-repair damage, but it's limited. Intense UV exposure, for instance, can lead to issues like pigmentation and dark spots. So, don't forget the importance of using sunscreen, a key element in protecting the skin. Additionally, timely repair care is essential, such as using masks or serums with reparative ingredients. The above reflects my personal experiences and isn't professional advice. For serious skin issues, it's best to consult a dermatologist for expert guidance. Our ultimate goal in skincare is to preserve and not harm our skin. I hope everyone can also share their experiences and discuss how to better maintain skin health. #skincare #beauty #anti aging #spa #eye mask #eye patch #eye cream #viicode #ESS #eastsuperstar VIIcode Blog: https://viiblog.com/index.php?route=blog/category&blog_category_id=3 Photo from: https://www.pexels.com/zh-cn/photo/17611869/

Thorough cleansing is the foundation of skincare. How to deeply cleanse the skin?

Many of us these days are really focused on keeping our facial skin looking its best. But with long hours at work and late nights, our skin can end up feeling dry, rough, and seriously lacking in moisture. That's when a good cleanse is crucial. Let's dive into some methods for deep facial cleansing together. So, why is deep cleansing so important? Well, your skin breathes through the tiny gaps between its cells, especially in the outermost layer called the stratum corneum. It also absorbs moisture and nutrients through this layer, as well as through the pores and sebaceous glands. In hot weather, sweat and oil production ramp up, and combined with airborne dust, it's easy for pores to get clogged with grime. If we don't thoroughly clean our skin, those old dead skin cells stick around, making the skin's surface thicker. This not only makes it hard for your skin to breathe properly, but it also blocks the absorption of skincare products, directly affecting your s

Summer has finally arrived, bringing with it a flurry of sunshine to bask in, but also putting our skin to the test. From UV exposure to dehydration, oiliness, inflammation, redness, clogged pores, and sagging, the list of skin woes seems endless. Finding the right balance is key: too much skincare can overwhelm the skin, while neglecting it can lead to summer sensitivities. For a summer skincare routine, remember just two words: "clean" and "light". Clean Routine: Start with a thorough daily cleanse. Summer means our skin's oil glands are working overtime, making it crucial to rid the skin of impurities and dust that can clog pores. Opt for waterless skincare to minimize the impact of water pollutants. Deep Cleanse: In addition to daily cleansing, incorporate a weekly deep cleanse. Oily or combination skin types can benefit from a weekly session, while dry or sensitive types may do better with bi-weekly treatments. Swap harsh physical exfoliants for gentle
