Skin Care Focus: Cleanliness

People with "wood" attributes are more likely to be troubled by acne and oil problems, and the focus of skin care is cleanliness. Thoroughly clean the sebum on your face with weakly acidic cleanser every morning and evening. If the oil situation is particularly serious, it is best to wash it with water only. Do not use cleaning products with strong degreasing power to remove oil excessively, otherwise the skin will automatically secrete more sebum for self-protection. Oily skin does not mean that there is no shortage of water, nor does it mean that normal maintenance procedures can be omitted. At night, you can use low-viscosity moisturizing liquid for conditioning and repair. During the day, sun protection and isolation can be strengthened to prevent sebum oxidation from producing toxins. After exfoliating twice a week, you can apply a deep cleansing mask. After three simple procedures, we can expect to gradually improve the phenomenon of oil-water imbalance.

Life prescription

The essence and growth of wood are related to planning. So you need to seek development space, or you will get angry easily. Regular exercise, such as aerobic exercise or running, helps to distract your energy. Because you have the ability to take on additional responsibilities, management is very suitable for you. Avoid alcohol and greasy food, and eat more light food and fruits and vegetables.

The nature of fire is beautiful.

Long face and narrow forehead; Prominent cheekbones and chin; Freckles; Curly or thick hair; Light skeleton; microcheiria

Focus on skin care: accelerate circulation

Because of poor blood circulation, the property of "fire" is prone to dullness. After steaming your face 1-2 times a week, apply a gentle compound fruit acid mask or fruit enzyme mask (such as papaya or pineapple enzyme), and your skin will be particularly delicate and smooth. Daily massage with massage cream or diluted lavender essential oil, and then wipe off the oil with a warm towel can also achieve gratifying results.

Life prescription

Because your life is full of happiness, you like many outdoor activities and keep trying new things, but it also makes you feel tired easily, so it is very important to sit still and take a deep breath 10 minutes every day. Taking part in dancing or singing classes is also suitable for your desire to express. Eating more bitter food helps to ease the mood.

The nature of "Earth" is beautiful.

Your figure

Short square face; A strong chin; The five senses are great, especially the lips; Dark skin; A strong figure

personality analysis

You are personable, loyal and friendly, and you don't like to show off. You are a good team member. When your body and mind are out of balance, you will feel sleepy and lazy, which will lead to unbalanced diet-either insufficient snacks or excessive snacks, and finally indigestion!

Skin care focus: repair

People with soil properties are generally sensitive and fragile, and the focus of skin care is to strengthen the natural defense of the skin, especially the repair of the stratum corneum. Sensitive skin must not be afraid to use skin care products because of fear of sensitivity, otherwise in the long run, the skin will become more and more inflamed due to serious water shortage. Water and protein in the stratum corneum each account for 40%, and the other 20% lipid, just like cement-reinforced bricks, can closely bind keratinocytes, preventing water from losing from the "cracks" and preventing foreign bodies from invading. Molecular nail has the highest lipid content in stratum corneum and is also the best natural cement.

You like to know where you are, so a regular lifestyle will give you the best performance. Regular exercise (especially team sports) can relieve tension and improve the bad habit of eating to relieve stress. Avoid dairy products and sugary foods, eat more high-fiber fruits and vegetables and enzymes to improve digestion problems.

The quality of "gold" is beautiful.

Your figure

Oval face, wider cheekbones; Bright big eyes; Pale face; Straight hair; A slim but strong figure like a child.

personality analysis

You are a self-disciplined, cautious and principled person, and you have high demands on yourself and everyone. Under such pressure, you are prone to depression, indigestion and respiratory symptoms such as asthma and bronchitis.

Skin prescription

Skin care focus: moisturizing

People with "golden" attributes are more likely to have dry and rough skin. "Oil-water balance supplement" is the highest guiding principle of nursing, because there is a layer of sebum film on the skin surface, which is composed of lipid and water, plays an important role in sterilization and preventing water loss, and is a protective barrier for the skin, so healthy skin should be oil-water balance, and the two complement each other, and neither side can neglect it. High-quality plant lipids, such as jojoba oil, grape seed oil, avocado oil, olive oil, evening primrose oil, etc., can form a water-retaining barrier. They are rich in vitamins, are skin-friendly and are easily absorbed by the skin.

Life prescription

Breathing exercise or yoga can strengthen lung function; Refuse snacks to improve indigestion; Eat more foods rich in minerals, such as fresh vegetables and seafood; A moderate display of creativity is good for your brain. Art class or just cooking at home is good.

Skin care focus: anti-aging

People with "water" attribute are prone to skin relaxation and aging. The factors of aging are complex, which can be roughly divided into natural aging, sunlight aging caused by ultraviolet rays, aging and pathological changes of dermis and DNA tissue caused by free radicals, hormonal aging of dominant mood and young skin. The first step of anti-aging is to remove the old waste cutin, so that the skin care ingredients with high activity can be better absorbed. Finally, remember to use anti-free radical products to prevent skin from accelerating aging. Fruit acid skin exchange or fruit acid skin exchange, and L-C combined with ultrasonic introduction can all play an obvious role.

Life prescription

Emotion dominates "water", so free expression is very important. When you are in a bad mood, you should talk to your friends or family. Jobs that require "communication" will make "water" people perform best, such as business or medical work. Depression can make you fat, so avoid eating fatty and sugary foods and eat diuretic foods, such as asparagus. Swimming is very suitable.

2. Use skills of sunscreen

1. Half an hour before going out, apply sunscreen lotion evenly to all parts of the skin, and don't forget your lips, eyes, nose and ears.

Generally speaking, as long as your face is not too big, including your face and neck, it is most appropriate to put on a toothpaste tube and squeeze out about 3 cm at a time.

3. Children's sunscreen products should not be mixed with adult sunscreen products. Men had better not use sunscreen on women.

4. Swimming outdoors, rub it every time you go ashore. If the sunscreen is not washed away by water, it should be rubbed again at least every two hours.

If there is no special indication on the general sunscreen, the body and face can be used together. If you are going to do outdoor sports, especially mountaineering and swimming, you need to use outdoor sunscreen-waterproof and sweat-proof, which is not easy to wash off, and such products are not suitable for face use.

6. Clouds can hardly isolate UVA ultraviolet rays. All UVA ultraviolet rays can penetrate clouds, which means that 90% ultraviolet rays can penetrate clouds, and only the thick cumulonimbus layer in the dark can block some ultraviolet rays, so it is best to use SPF 10- 15 products on cloudy days.

7. The skin will turn brown after sun exposure, indicating that the skin has entered a state of self-protection-skin thickening and melanin production are all manifestations of skin self-protection. Melanin can only partially absorb ultraviolet UVB, which can isolate the skin from harm, but it has no function of absorbing ultraviolet UVA, so even tanned skin will be damaged by UVA, and it also needs sun protection.
