The data report shows that for Asian women, the skin color of Chinese women is 2-3 degrees yellower than that of Japanese women of the same age. What is the reason behind this? Explain the reasons and uncover the beauty and skincare misconceptions you may not have known.

Reason 1: Environmental pollution is the enemy of dull skin

The damage of environmental pollution to our skin is the most serious and difficult to avoid. China has two "crowns" of "world factory" and "world's first automobile market", with the most severe environmental pollution in cities. These pollutants include dirty air, computer radiation, and radiation emitted by various industrial machines. Many heavy metal ions not only can easily penetrate the skin, causing loss of skin function, but also remain in large amounts on the epidermis, delaying the metabolism of skin cells. The accumulated toxins cause the skin to become dull, dry, and rapidly aging.

Solution: Protection is more important than detoxification

Neglecting pollution isolation and focusing only on detoxification without protection is the first injury to dull skin. Many people have started to solve the problem of "skin poisoning" through detoxification, but lack awareness of early protection. Little do they know that the toxins excreted every day may only be 1/10 of the toxins inhaled by the skin. However, protection can block 80% -90% of external pollution and toxins.

Reason 2: Ozone hole breaks, ultraviolet rays drive straight in
According to the data released by the United Nations Environment Committee, the severest break area of ozone hole layer currently include the area above the Tropic of Cancer where we live. According to measurements (Beijing Youth Daily, 3/6/2009), the content of atmospheric ozone layer in Beijing has decreased by about 8% compared to before.

Solution: Do sunscreen every day

Neglecting daily sun protection can cause the dermis layer of the skin to have winkles, resulting in decreased translucency, and the accumulation of dark spots at the bottom layer, leading to the deposition of skin tone night by night, which can be considered as the second injury to dull skin tone. The ozone layer can absorb and block the vast majority of UVA and UVC in ultraviolet rays, but as the ozone hole expands, whether on cloudy days or indoors, ultraviolet rays will penetrate clouds and glass, becoming invisible skin killers. In Japan and South Korea, female consumers have become accustomed to taking an extra step in sun protection every day, using products with SPF30-50 PA++. And just the difference in this step will prevent the skin from accelerating light aging and the formation of invisible pigmentation.

Reason 3: Lack of vigilance and prevention of pigment deposition in the dermis layer
UVA is like invisible microwave radiation that can deeply damage the dermis layer, forming invisible inflammation and melanin deposition in the dermis layer. The accumulated emotional pressure can also cause Asian women to get a large number of emotional pigmentation.

In Japan and South Korea, even women without pigmentation still insist on doing regular brightening works every year. Why is that? Because invisible spots are easier to remove only before they appear. This is like drinking vitamin C in the early stages of a cold, which is far more effective than taking cold medicine for a high fever. So before the age of 35, your face was always fair and smooth. Don't think that brightening is not your homework anymore!

Solution: Do is since childhood, the most important thing of brightening is to prevent
Lacking of right concept of brightening, short of vigilance and regular clean of invisible pigmentation is the third injury to dull skin. Invisible pigmentation in dermis layer secretly accumulate and they would occur and spread in skin surface if it reached the certain amount. Just like anti-aging, we can not do skin care when wrinkle has shown, precaution is the most important, the earlier you do, the better the effect is.

Reason 4: Collagen break and loss, turning “white” into “yellow”
Many of you may not know that ultraviolet rays also cause the loss of collagen protein and collagen fiber aging and discoloration. The latest research made by authentic institutions showed that ultraviolet rays accelerate saccharify, which lead to metamorphism of collagen fiber, changing from white and elastic into dry and dull.

This process not only causes wrinkles and skin sagging, but also deepens the dark yellow and black spots on the skin. That's why after returning from beach sun exposure, the skin will first turn red, then black, and finally dull yellow.

Solution: Protecting the protein, choosing the right product is important
Collagen protein becomes "yellow", lacking protection, and can be considered the fourth injury to dull yellow skin. Japanese and Korean women have become increasingly aware of the importance of supplementing collagen, but more importantly, preventing further loss and yellowing of collagen protein. Some protective products that can protect "collagen" have become essential for many beauty enthusiasts.

Beauty editors recommend whitening solutions
After analyzing the four main reasons why most of our whitening efforts fail, the beauty editor found that to achieve whitening, we must follow three principles:
1. Protection first: Skincare should start with protection. Environmental injuries also affect the skin. So protecting the skin is also important while protecting the environment.
2. Maintaining Beauty: Maintaining the current beauty capital of the skin, maintenance can gradually increase points;
3. Choosing the right product: Whitening exercises should not be taken randomly. Choose products that can isolate, sunscreen, and protect collagen at the same time. Persistently, the whitening effect can take effect quickly without rebound!
