New Skin Problem: MASKNE - 0 Comments

마스크, 수술 마스크, 바이러스, 제한 없음, 코로나, 여자, 얼굴, 입, 호흡, 전염병, 발발

Maskne is a combination of the words “Mask” and “Acne”. This is a new skin breakout by COVID-19.

Why does Maskne occur on your skin? One of the main reasons is the friction between face and mask and eventually, it leads your skin to be irritated and stressed out. If you reuse a dirty mask for several days, your skin can get breakouts by the contaminated mask. As well, the damp and hot environment under the mask creates a perfect place for multiplying bacteria, causing Maskne.

How to prevent MASKNE

1 Cleanse skin perfectly with a mild cleanser

My Recommendation: NEOGEN Dermalogy A-Clear Soothing Foam Cleanser

The Neogen Dermalogy A-Clear Soothing Foam Cleanser helps people who have sensitive skin with their fine bubbles that can clean all the impurities inside your pores. It also helps with balancing the sebum discharge and slightly exfoliates your skin.  This gentle cleanser clarifies clogged pores and helps remove excess oil, which is one of main factors for acne skin, while controlling excess sebum. it helps soothe irritated and sensitive skin, while protecting the skin from outer environment for smooth and healthy skin.

2.  Calm irritated skin with a soothing toner

My Recommendation: DEAR KLAIRS Supple Preparation Unscented Toner

No alcohol, No artificial flavorings, No harmful ingredients. 

Unscented Toner fills moisture with your skin well and makes your skin texture much softer. This is Essential Oil-Free Toner, We recommend it to people are sensitive about perfume, essential oil. 

3. Moisturize skin keeping the water and oil balance

My Recommendation: INNISFREE Green Tea Seed Serum

A moisturizing serum with organic Jeju green tea and green tea seeds that hydrate your skin from deep within! Rich in amino acids and minerals, green tea from Jeju's own green tea leaves hydrates your skin. The fresh green tea deeply hydrates your skin and the green tea seed oil creates a strong moisture barrier to keep your skin moisturized longer.

Why Collagen is important for skin - 0 Comments

Collagen is the proteins that spread in your body, mainly can be found in bones and skin, cartilage, organs, and hair. Thre are many types of Collagen. Among them, I'll show the five common types:

Type I: skin, tendon, vasculature, organs, bone (Usually, type 1 is related and effects to your skin)
Type II: cartilage
Type III: reticulate, commonly found alongside type I
Type IV: forms basal lamina, the epithelium-secreted layer of the basement membrane
Type V: cell surfaces, hair, and placenta

(From Wikipedia)

 

Losing collagen causes diverse problems to our bones, cartilage, and skin. With respect to skincare, Collagen helps to keep skin supple and resilient. The skin is divided into the epidermis, the dermis, and the subcutaneous fat layer. The dermis is filled with collagen —occupying more than 90%—, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, which play an essential role in maintaining suppleness. That is, a decrease in collagen leads the skin to lose its elasticity and vitality, making it rough and flabby. So, maintaining collagen in your skin is an important part to keep our skin looking young and healthy.
