Expanded pores in the T-zone - the trouble not only of adolescents, but also of mature women. And they can appear even in the owners of dry skin. Are the strips of black spots effective and how to use this tool, we decided to discuss today.
How do strips work to remove black dots?
Our skin is not uniform, it has a lot of depressions, pores, through which metabolic processes occur - the dermis receives oxygen, removes sweat and toxins, excess sebum. It is oxidized sebum that takes on a dark color and makes our pores visible. The larger it is, the wider the groove and the more noticeable black points. They can be disposed of by manual or ultrasonic cleaning in the cabin. And you can use special strips against black dots. There are many types of strips, but they all work in this way:
- Carefully cleaned face should be moistened in problem areas with water and glue the strip.
- Due to the viscous substance with the addition of antiseptic and caring components, the strip contacts the apex of the greasy plug that has killed the pore.
- After 10-20 minutes (depending on the type of strips), the substance dries to the contents of the pores. After carefully removing the strip, we completely remove the grease stopper attached to it.
After this procedure, the pores become perfectly clean, and it is very important not to dwell on what has been achieved, because a holy place is never empty - dirt can get into the cleared cavity. Therefore, after the application of strips, it is very important to immediately wash your face with a neutral remedy, rinse with iced water and wipe with a lotion, narrowing the pores. You can also use your usual cream. Only with such a scheme, cleansing strips from black dots will be effective. Do not forget that this tool should be used regularly - at least once a week.
