Minimalist Skin Care: Your Skin Needs a Break

I recommend everyone to read this book. It is very well written. I used to wear various big-name facial masks, big-name skin care products, and various skin care products every day. But my skin is still very bad. I stopped taking all skin care products. No need for any facial mask. Wet a face towel with warm water and wash your face every morning to remove the oil on your face. The face washing process takes about 15 minutes. I'm not going out. So just wash your face once a day. If you go out, wash twice a day. Also, pay attention to cleanliness and hygiene. I wash my hair at 1357. That is, once every other day. If I stay up late, I wash my hair every day. Because oil secretion is strong when you stay up late. If you wash your hair promptly, you will avoid scalp acne and folliculitis. This is very important. Pillowcases are changed every two days. This will prevent acne on the face, and the four-piece bed sheet set should be changed every half a month in winter. In summer, it changes every 7 to 10 days. These can basically eliminate acne on the scalp and face. There is also the logistics of sun protection when going out. I have an umbrella, a hat, a mask, and sunglasses all arranged. So I have fair skin. No aging. I am year round. Wear an umbrella no matter it's cloudy or rainy.

It's very good, because we have a very famous old Chinese doctor here who also gives each of his patients a copy of How to Be a Healthy Person, which includes one rule: no need for skin care products. Skin care products are not necessary. He is retired and his complexion and skin are still very good. He has never used skin care products, and so has my mother. I had acne for a while and used anti-acne products indiscriminately, and I became allergic. I used to just wash my face with water and my skin was fine, but I was asked what kind of skin care I should use. Now I use too many skin care products and cosmetics, which has made my skin worse. I went to a top-level dermatology hospital and prescribed various hormones and antibiotics, which made my skin very bad and fragile. So I stopped using skin care products and did not use any skin care products, but unexpectedly improved it.

In fact, the content can be summarized very simply. He mainly tells us that if we want to protect our skin well, we need to adopt some bad habits and bad eating habits, and some incorrect skin care methods. In fact, if you are not a professional, you will envy some professionals. Professional knowledge does not necessarily need to be true, and for general knowledge principles, of course we need to know it, but more importantly, we must practice it after knowing it. For example, we all know that sweets are more harmful to the skin, and staying up late can also affect the skin, but it is still difficult for us to get rid of this bad habit and the temptation of delicious food.

It is said that girls are born to love beauty, so skin care has become a very troublesome issue for girls. This book reminds us to be minimalist, especially in skin care products, and teaches us scientific skin care. The author of this book is a doctor. She pays attention to natural skin care and skin care methods that follow the mechanical characteristics of the skin. The author believes that skin care products add many harmful ingredients that the skin does not need in order to preserve them. "Remember, your skin is powerful." Your skin is much more powerful than you think. If there is a skin problem, stop using all cosmetics, do not burden the skin, let the skin repair itself, and the symptoms will subside on their own. Don't pay the IQ tax to buy expensive skin care products. Learn to take care of your skin and carry out correct skin care.

"Less is more, too much is never enough" Overuse of skin care products or tools can damage the skin barrier and lead to a high incidence of problems such as sensitive skin. Minimalist skin care is not about blindly simplifying the skin care process. We must clarify the true meaning of each streamlined step, and the choice of any single product must be reasonable. We need to develop a minimalist skin care plan based on our actual situation. Minimalist skin care is about establishing a clear and clear personal skin care system for ourselves, without making unnecessary additions to specious needs. The marketing method of most cosmetics is essentially to create demand, but in fact, skin only needs three basic steps, sun protection, cleansing, and moisturizing.

The truth about skin care: The skin is very powerful and has its own repair ability, so it doesn't need so many skin care products at all. Using too many skin care products can actually harm your skin. Just like the flowers in a greenhouse, you think they are protecting, but they are actually hurting. As for your skin, don't worry. If you have acne, dry and flaky skin, allergies, or sunburn, you don't need to worry at all, and don't over-intervene, because the skin is like an antibody cell, and it can defeat the virus on its own without the need for drugs. And your excessive intervention will prevent the skin from detecting the true skin condition. The skin will adjust according to the perceived skin condition. If the skin detects that the face is too oily, the sebaceous glands will reduce or stop secreting oil. However, if you use oil-removing products, your skin will not notice that your skin is too oily. It will still receive the message that your face is not oily enough and it will continue to secrete it. So, naturally, not doing anything is the best state. In fact, the same is true for each of us. Sometimes, if you want others to like you too much, you will deliberately please, care, and pay attention, but it will bring bad results. The same is true for children. When they see other children's excellence, they become anxious about their own children, but excessive intervention is counterproductive. Sometimes, if you want to whiten and lose weight quickly, you don't care about how your body feels. Excessive dieting leads to overeating and weight regain. Excessive dependence on skin care products leads to the loss of the skin's self-regulating function. In fact, everything is fine and there is no need for random intervention. Let nature take its course. In fact, each of our bodies, souls, and spirits has its own adjustment ability and rhythm. All we have to do is let go and accept it, and believe that we will automatically adjust ourselves without external intervention. Although you don't need to use too many skin care products, we can provide support to the skin and help clean the face in simple ways. The steps in the book are mainly: deactivation, repair, and conditioning. Discontinuation means to stop using messy skin care products and stop over-protecting and interfering with the skin. Repair means that the skin begins to perceive the true skin condition and then begins to repair itself. Conditioning is a simple support provided when the skin is in normal condition. Mainly: cleansing + hydrating. Wash your face with water in the morning, and use cold-pressed vegetable oil (jojoba oil, sesame oil) to cleanse your face at night, regardless of whether you have makeup on or not. This can remove the grease and waste accumulated on your face after being exposed to the air and facing the computer all day. Then, hydrate with distilled water or botanical hydrosols. This is because when people stay in air-conditioned rooms every day, the secretion of sweat glands in the skin decreases, and the skin becomes dehydrated. Then pay attention to sun protection, mainly physical sun protection (hat, sun protection clothing), any sun protection chemicals are not as good as physical sun protection. Internal clearing. Accelerate metabolism and allow toxins to be excreted to the surface of the skin through skin channels, allowing us to remove excess garbage through active cleaning. The main method is: apply hot compress, apply cold-pressed vegetable oil, let it rest for ten to fifteen minutes, then rub and massage. In fact, the essence of skin is to secrete water and replenish moisture through perspiration sweat glands. Oil is secreted through the sebaceous glands, making the skin smooth and shiny. When the skin senses ultraviolet rays, it will secrete melanin, forming small black umbrellas on the surface of the skin to protect the skin. Excretion channels are smooth, and waste and toxins in the body can be metabolized normally. Eat a healthy and balanced diet, go to bed early and get up early, the body's hormone secretion is normal, nutrition is sufficient, and skin cells grow and live normally. Then there's perfect skin. In fact, everything is very simple, but we make everything very complicated because we lack the ability to discern, or do not study the truth ourselves or listen to others. The essence is the rules of the skin. It's not skin care that gets better, it's skin.

The author's concept is very novel. She tells us to believe in the skin's own ability to repair itself. Moreover, the content in the book is very practical, with a lot of scientific skin care knowledge and specific methods. I think every girl who loves beauty can read it to establish a correct concept of skin care and no longer be fooled by marketing.

Many people use too many products and steps in their skin care routine, which puts a strain on their skin. By simplifying your skin care steps and choosing only the products and steps you really need, you can reduce irritation and burden on your skin. The book emphasizes choosing truly effective skin care products and avoiding blindly following trends and blind purchases. The author recommends paying attention to the ingredients and efficacy of products and choosing products that suit your skin type and needs. This book attempts to guide readers to free themselves from tedious skin care steps and regain simple and effective skin care methods to achieve healthy and beautiful skin.

The biggest realization after reading this book is that skin care is also a science, and continuous learning and improvement in this process is the best way. I didn't know much about this aspect before. I just blindly supplemented what was missing, which resulted in serious damage to the skin. At the same time, it also cost a lot of money and energy. I was helpless and started to use it, and I didn't care about it. I didn't expect that my skin was much better than before. After accidentally discovering this treasure book, I realized that all the efforts I had done before were in vain and had harmed my skin.

It's a very practical book, focusing on streamlined skin care and trusting the skin's own ability to heal itself. Don't choose skin care products with ingredients that are too complicated and have a lot of messy effects. The most recommended ones in the book are jojoba oil and hydrosol. The end doesn't reach the eyes. Does it feel like the book is incomplete?

1. Keep your skin care simple, never underestimate the ability of your skin, and don't rely too much on skin care products. 2. Talk about various skin problems, such as blackheads, acne, freckles, etc., And provide solutions. 3. I think the core of skin care needs to be cold-pressed vegetable oils (sesame oil and jojoba oil), internal dredging, and hydration (use needle-distilled water, Watsons is recommended)

It is very comprehensive and well written. It allows us to understand skin care correctly and scientifically. Skin care should comply with the laws of nature and protect the normal physiological structure and functions of the skin. Instead of blindly applying skin care products to the skin, do not label your skin as oily or dry. You should pay attention to the current state of the skin, do dredging, excretion, cleansing, and physical sun protection. Do not add unnecessary burdens to the skin, and believe in the self-repair and strength of the skin.

It has been half a month since I read the book and took action. I just wash my face with water every day. No makeup, no lotion, no essence. I just apply water on my face. I no longer have a bunch of acne. I feel that the acne on my face will disappear on its own now [Like] [Like] [Laughing]

The author analyzes various skin problems from a professional perspective. In essence, we do not need to use excessive skin care products on the market. Basic care, good rest and lots of exercise are better than those dazzling array of repair products.

I saw it once many years ago. During that time, I insisted on plant-based aromatic skin care, and I gained a lot. My pores were smaller, my skin became less oily, and it became more delicate. Later, this method was gradually forgotten. Now read it again, resume natural therapy, and hope to gain a new skin condition [Like]

This book is very practical. It systematically explains simple, healthy and efficient skin care methods, as well as skin care product purchasing tips. It provides targeted popularization of various common skin problems. The author has a solid professional background, and the dermatology knowledge in the book has expanded my knowledge base on skin care. After reading this, I understood a core point. To maintain good skin, you don't need to pile up complicated skin care products. You should trust the skin's own self-healing ability. This can also help us avoid many skin care consumption traps in life.

It's not bad. It starts from the underlying logic of skin, but I haven't put it into practice yet. Now I'll give it a try and see if I can get rid of blackheads.

To sum up, clean well, moisturize well, use less functional skin care products, do not use low-quality skin care products, and use more internal conditioning, your skin will be strong [shy]

It was very effective and solved many of my questions. It is a book worth reading.

It's interesting. It's awesome. I'll give it a try in half a year. Sisters, wait for my good news.

I will try it first and then evaluate it after the treatment.

Wait until I look for the product and give it a try during the downtime period.

I learned some skin care knowledge from the author, I hope it will be useful

A very useful book, I suddenly became enlightened after reading it

It's super good-looking. I use a lot of the content in it in my life. It's very practical.

Very good, recommended. The author's idea coincides with mine. There is really no need to use too many skin care products on the face. The book describes the hydrosol aromatherapy wet compress and oil nourishment, which I highly recommend everyone to do.

A very good book, worth recommending. Thank you for meeting me.

What you can take is much more reliable than the mess on the Internet. Not much to say, I bought it first to try out the insurance for you.

Open up my new world of skin care

Big thanks to the author
