Recently, I have heard many people say that they are troubled by sagging face lines and wrinkles caused by masks, which make them look older. It's not too early to give up on the idea that you can't go back to your dream face line. ......
In this article, we asked beauty skin researcher Yumi Sugimoto to tell us about "aging care" that we should take to achieve our ideal skin in a few years.
1: Dryness is the best anti-aging care
As we age, the amount of moisture in our skin becomes less and less. In order to achieve youthful, beautiful skin full of moisture forever, the first thing you should do is to take care of dryness.
Lack of moisture in the skin can lead to a variety of skin problems due to disturbed turnover and lowered barrier function. Of course, it can also lead to aging skin problems such as dry fine lines and wrinkles. This is why dryness care is so important.
For example, if you moisturize your skin before applying makeup, don't just use a simple moisturizer because you don't want to feel sticky. Also, if you are out and about, it is recommended to use a re-moisturizer if possible.
2: Pay attention to skincare ingredients
If you want to take care of your aging skin, you should also pay attention to the ingredients in your skin care products. Retinol, for example, is expected to help fight wrinkles.
Hyaluronic acid and ceramide are also good ingredients to check for dryness, one of the causes of aging.
Astaxanthin and fullerene are also expected to have antioxidant effects. If you are conscious of aging care, you may want to select items that contain these ingredients.
3: Massage to keep skin firm and lustrous
In winter, the temperature drops drastically and the amount of exercise tends to decrease. This tends to lower metabolism and blood flow. In addition, with the recent increase in the amount of time spent wearing masks, many people may find that they have fewer opportunities to use their facial muscles than ever before. Leaving these things unattended can lead to lackluster skin and an aged look.
In order to keep your skin firm and glowing, it is important to massage with an eye on increasing blood flow. For example, gently glide your fingers from behind your ears to your collarbone, or gently rub the hollows of your collarbone from side to side. It is a good idea to do this kind of massage at the same time as your skin care routine.
Also, since skin care massage is not a big movement, you can do it even for a moment while you are working. Try to do it when you notice it.
With more time spent wearing masks, you have more timing to worry about sagging face lines.
Please use this as a reference to aim for the "clean face line you have always dreamed of" without having to worry about sagging face lines in your new lifestyle.
