What to do if your skin hair follicles are clogged

Clogged hair follicles are quite common in our daily life, and there are many causes. There are endocrine reasons, especially during adolescence, when the body's hormone secretion is relatively strong, which often affects the secretion of sebaceous glands. At this time, blockages are prone to occur. The most obvious manifestation is the appearance of acne. When hair follicles are clogged, you must pay attention to skin cleansing, do a good job of deep cleaning, remove makeup carefully, exfoliate regularly, and pay attention to diet conditioning.

What to do if your skin hair follicles are clogged

1. Remove makeup carefully

Take an appropriate amount of makeup remover and apply it evenly to the face and neck with a cotton pad or fingertips, and massage gently in circular motions. Gently stroke the nose in a spiral motion from the outside to the inside, and remove foundation from the neck from the bottom to the top. Wipe with tissue paper or cotton pad until there is no foundation color left on the tissue paper or cotton pad.

2. Wash your face with facial cleanser

To prevent the oily ingredients in makeup removers from remaining on the skin, the accumulation of oil will result in clogging of skin pores. Be sure to wash your face again with facial cleanser. Make sure to wash it thoroughly and don't be careless, especially the T-zone, which should be washed carefully with up and down movements. Spread your five fingers on your cheeks and gently make upward circles. The water temperature should be 40 degrees, slightly higher than the temperature of your hands. Use your hands to scoop water and splash it on your face, making sure to wash off the facial cleanser thoroughly. After washing with hot water, splash your face with cold water about 20 times. After washing, do not dry with a towel, but pat dry with your hands.

3. Exfoliation

After removing makeup and washing your face, you can use a scrub to achieve deep cleansing, but remember to avoid the area around your eyes and mouth. Exfoliation plays an important role in removing old dead skin from pores and can effectively unclog pores. After scrubbing, the pores of the skin will become larger. It is best to apply some lotion or spray toner to shrink the pores and keep the skin hydrated.

4. Blockage export

If the pores are severely clogged, you can go to a cosmetics store and buy a set of pore acne extraction fluid to extract all the dirt inside the pores, especially some pimples and acne particles; or apply a mud mask to soften them first, use an acne clip perpendicular to the skin, and gently clip the acne along the surface, then pat it gently with "moisturizing lotion" to soothe it, to ensure that it is cleaned without leaving any traces. Don't make pimple removal a tough battle. Squeezing it hard will not only fail to completely remove the pimples, but will also damage the hair follicles and may even leave dents.

5. Astringent and moisturizing skin

Girls with dry skin can use softening lotion to soften the cuticle and help nutrients penetrate, as well as use mild, weakly acidic skin care products and moisturizing lotion. Girls with oily skin should use astringent lotion to inhibit sebum secretion, and use refreshing and sebum-inhibiting skin care products to prevent oil from staying on the skin and clogging pores.
