Is skin care products stinging because of lack of water?

After using irritating functional skin care products, the tingling sensation often disappears after a few minutes, and the skin is slightly red at most, which is caused by the great stimulation of skin care products to the skin. A very important reason for tingling is that the skin barrier is damaged!

Pain is a nerve signal. The outermost epidermis of our skin has no nerve endings to feel this signal. Only when these irritating ingredients pass through the epidermis and reach the deeper dermis will they cause tingling.

Because there are nerve endings in the dermis, when the skin barrier is intact, the self-protection function of the skin will prevent or reduce these irritating components from reaching the dermis. It was no problem to use cucumber water at first, but after brush acid, because the skin barrier was damaged, it might be phenoxyethanol, pigment or camphor in the water. In short, there is an ingredient that causes this tingling.

You can use it from a small dose and a low concentration, mix high-concentration efficacy skin care products with other basic creams or hyaluronic acid stock solution, and then gradually increase the concentration of efficacy skin care products with the extension of use time until it reaches the original concentration. Apply moisturizing products before stimulating products, and then put functional skin care products.

If the skin barrier injury causes tingling, it is necessary to repair the skin barrier, and at the same time choose mild and non-irritating skin care products to avoid using irritating skin care products before repairing the skin barrier.

Therefore, there is a tingling feeling when using skin care products, which is not caused by lack of water. It is impossible to repair the barrier and solve the stinging problem simply by replenishing water.
