After so many years of skin care, you have tried sowing and pulling weeds thousands of times, and you have tried so many "skin care tips". Are you still seeing little effect on your skin condition?
Ingredients, formula, concentration, activity, morning C and evening A, you have been educated so much that you think you already know a lot about skin care, but aren’t you still making mistakes?
Let me guess, the exquisite "little confused" who never misses any skin care minefield, is it you? Here are three typical minefields, see how many of them you have stepped on?
Always protect yourself from the sun, but you age very quickly
If you want to say what is the best anti-aging method, it must be sun protection. Sunscreen can effectively prevent skin sunburn and combat the aging effects caused by ultraviolet rays.
Oxidative stress reaction induced by ultraviolet rays is one of the important causes of aging. Because after the oxidative stress reaction induced by ultraviolet rays, a large number of free radicals are generated, and cell transcription factors and many enzymes in the skin will be activated, working overtime to decompose collagen and elastin, causing the skin's elasticity to decrease, causing dryness and texture. etc. situation.
But sunscreen is not a perfect anti-aging product. It has shortcomings in dealing with oxidative stress.
First, when sunscreen is used correctly (not to mention the problem that many people do not use enough), there are still 45% of free radicals induced by ultraviolet rays that cannot be blocked; [1]
Second, in addition to ultraviolet rays, free radicals that induce skin aging also include internal and external factors such as environmental pollutants, exogenous chemicals, and stress. Sunscreen is powerless against these; [ 2 ]
Therefore, using antioxidant products on top of sunscreen is a more perfect anti-aging skin care plan.
After medical aesthetic surgery on the front feet, the back feet will turn black
Pigmentation is very easy to occur after medical aesthetic surgery. This is inseparable from the inflammatory reaction of the skin caused by the medical aesthetic surgery, and also after surgery. related to improper care.
During the critical period of recovery after medical art, especially invasive medical art, melanocytes are easily stimulated and synthesize a large amount of melanin, causing discoloration.
Therefore, wearing sun protection is the first step. Adequate blocking of ultraviolet rays can effectively reduce the activity of melanocytes, thereby reducing the risk of pigmentation;
The second step is to use skin care products that inhibit melanin synthesis. [3] Vitamin C can not only destroy the steps of melanin synthesis, but also effectively resist oxidation, reduce collagen decomposition, and promote collagen synthesis. This is what the term "one specialty has many functions" says.
When choosing vitamin C products, if you do not have sensitive skin or the wound is not scabbed after surgery, you can consider using L-vitamin C. Because L-vitamin C is the most efficiently absorbed and utilized form of vitamin C by human skin.
Don’t consider the vitamin C in food, not to mention that the vitamin C content in fruits is not particularly high. Even if it is high, it will be distributed throughout the body after being absorbed through the digestive tract, and finally reaches the facial skin. How many can there be?
Before you want to rely on the vitamin C in fruits to fight oxidation, it is better to consider how much sugar is in different fruits. Don’t lose weight if you fail to resist the oxygen! (A dog’s head saves his life)
Beauty during the day, red panda staying up late
Trust me! It’s not the mobile phone that hurts the skin, but staying up late playing with the mobile phone.
Although mobile phones emit radiation, the radiation energy is low and will not cause harm to the skin. But it’s true that using mobile phones makes people more likely to stay up late.
Staying up late has many effects on people. Today we will only talk about skin. As the outermost organ of the human body and the largest organ of the human body, the skin has its own biological clock. We call it "skin biorhythm."
This means that there are certain differences in the physiological activities of the skin during the day and at night.
[ 4 ] Accordingly, the best targeted approach to skin care in the morning and evening is:
During the day: more oil secretion, higher pH, stronger natural sun protection, less cell proliferation , so as to better cope with the stimulation of the complex external environment during the day;
Therefore, during the day, prevention of damage to the external environment is a top priority. For example, shielding, sun protection, and antioxidants can help the skin resist external stimulation;
Night: More blood circulation, more cell proliferation, and more efficient DNA repair. After a whole day of external exposure, the skin After damage, complete self-repair.
Therefore, at night, strengthening the skin’s self-repair is the first priority. For example, fully moisturize, remove excess free radicals accumulated during the day, and create a good repair environment.
Moreover, once the human body's circadian rhythm is disrupted, the body's stress stress level will increase significantly. In addition to inducing aging, this oxidative stress will also increase skin oil secretion and cause dull skin color. .
So, don’t stay up late if you can’t help it. If you have to stay up the latest night, do your best to resist oxygen at night.
Let’s hit the blackboard here and draw the key points:
Antioxidation is a key step in scientific and effective skin care.
As life continues, the production of oxygen free radicals continues. Our skin is facing a 24-hour test. We must implement the skin care concept of "antioxidant day and night".
They all say they need antioxidants, but which one is better?
If I were to recommend a good antioxidant product to everyone, I would have to mention SkinCellulose. As a professional and scientific skin care brand, SkinCeuticals is a well-deserved pioneer brand and industry leader in the field of antioxidants.
In the late 1980s, Professor Sheldon Pinnell, chief dermatologist at Duke University, discovered the Duke Golden Parameters during his research on skin cancer:
Determines vitamin C antioxidant One of the keys to effectiveness is absorbability. Only with pure L-vitamin C, combined with a concentration of 10% to 20%, and controlling the pH value below 3.5, can vitamin C be effectively absorbed by the skin and better exert its antioxidant effect. [5 ]
Based on hard-core antioxidant research, the brand has put forward the concept of "antioxidation should be considered day and night", providing everyone with combination products that can meet the different needs of day and night antioxidants to achieve truly effective results. 24-hour antioxidant.
Use CE during the day to combine antioxidants
CE Classic Antioxidant Bottle (US Patent No.: US.7179841) uses a patented triple compound formula to combine L-vitamin C and ferulic acid Collaboration and synergy, powerful combination, double the antioxidant efficiency.

If you say that talking about the ingredients without talking about the concentration, it is all "hooliganism". Then, the ingredients and concentration ratio of CE classic antioxidant bottles are two words: "conscience" and "professional".
Each bottle of CE contains 15% L-vitamin C + 0.5% ferulic acid + 1% vitamin E. While taking into account skin tolerance, it can effectively neutralize free radicals in the environment and promote collagen synthesis. , fade fine lines and brighten skin tone.
With the synergy of the patented triple formula*, not only does vitamin C tend to be stable, but the product can also have a much greater effect than a single ingredient. Experimental results show that after using CE products, the minimum dose of erythema produced by irradiating the skin with ultraviolet rays is 8 times that of the control group (normal skin). Simply put, the resistance to environmental stimulation is increased by 8 times. [6 ]
CF Pigment Antioxidant Bottle (U.S. Patent No. US. 9.248,082 B2) also uses SkinCeuticals’ patented triple compound formula and is suitable for daytime use.
The difference is that phloretin is used instead of vitamin E, which has a refreshing texture and is suitable for people with oily skin, combination skin or those who like a refreshing skin feel. The additional added phloretin can inhibit melanin secretion and is more targeted at treating spots and dullness.
RBE at night, repairing day damage
When it comes to repairing at night, it is RBE’s turn to stay up late and the antioxidant bottle shows its talents. It is also good news for the ingredient party. It contains 1% resveratrol + 1% α-tocopherol + 0.5% baicalin, all three of which have antioxidant effects.
For skin damaged by external light/environment, it can improve skin gloss and smoothness; it perfectly complements daytime antioxidant products to resist skin aging.
According to test results, after users used RBE Overnight Antioxidant Bottle for 12 weeks, the smoothness and gloss of their skin were significantly improved.
