Be careful of skin problems in spring! Fluctuation Countermeasure Care & Base Makeup | I asked a beauty professional!

When it gets warmer little by little and I feel the arrival of spring, I get excited, but I also suffer from skin problems. Especially in March, the aftermath of dryness in the cold season and external stimuli such as pollen and yellow sand make the skin liable to fluctuate. So, this time, I asked a beauty professional how to deal with skin problems in spring. Check out the care methods and welcome the new life season positively!

■ Is skin trouble likely to occur in spring?

Spring will ease the cold and make it easier to spend. It's a season when you feel better with colorful new cosmetics and spring clothes, but you may be worried that "somehow your skin isn't feeling well ...". During this period, in addition to the large daily temperature difference at the turn of the season, a lot of pollen (others, yellow sand, PM2.5, etc.) is scattered. Therefore, many people feel skin problems in the spring.

The characteristic of spring skin troubles is that, unlike acne, which usually occurs, muzzles and redness appear. In particular, if the barrier function of the skin is reduced and it becomes sensitive, troubles are likely to occur, so be careful.

■ Four measures for spring fluctuation skincare

1. Moisturizing skincare improves barrier function

Reviewing skincare is indispensable for dealing with skin problems. Isn't moisturizing neglected compared to winter because it's getting warmer? Even in spring, it is important to take good care of your skin in the morning and evening to improve water retention. With age, both water and sebum decrease. Let's replenish the moisture firmly, keep the barrier function, and make the skin resistant to irritation.

2. Make-off as soon as you return!

When you get home, remove your makeup as soon as possible to wash away pollen and dust on your skin! In the first place, base makeup protects the skin from external stimuli such as pollen, and also covers skin problems. Not only when you are worried about pollen, but also at home where there is little external stimulus, remove the base makeup to reduce the burden on your skin. But don't forget to take UV care during the day, even when you're at home!

Moisturizing is also essential after cleansing. Keeping your skin clean and moisturizing will also protect your skin. Based on the above, please review your routine after returning home.

3. Be aware of the gentleness of cleansing

When you have skin problems, your skin is more delicate than ever. Take extra care not to cleanse your skin too much. The point is to choose an elastic dosage form such as gel or cream. These reduce friction during cleansing and can be washed off gently. If you usually use oil or wipe type, please switch according to your skin condition.

4. Base make-up is "smooth finish"

Pollen and dust are less likely to physically adhere than usual because we are living in a mask nowadays. Also, it is a fact that many people make the base makeup thinner or omit it as much as they wear a mask. However, base makeup is important to protect the skin. Finishing with moist items such as liquid and cream-type foundations makes it easier for pollen and dust to adhere. Therefore, try to finish the surface lightly by switching to a powder foundation or layering face powder.

Those who are worried about rough skin

It is better to avoid leaving the high cover foundation on for a long time. It may put a strain on your skin.

Those who are worried about dryness

Instead of moisturizing with base make-up, do careful skincare before make-up. Also, if you are concerned about dryness and are using a liquid foundation, turn on loose powder to finish. Let's make the skin surface smooth.

Those with a lot of sebum

Remove sebum with oil blotting paper. In particular, younger people secrete more sebum, so diligent care is important.
