Are you afraid of becoming ugly when your period comes?

The monthly visit of "period" is a troublesome thing for many women who love beauty. "Age Flo" is still on the way, and my originally smooth and beautiful face is now covered with small pimples and rough pores. But in fact, the menstrual period is also a critical period for skin care. Put away your depressed mood and add some points to your beauty!

Hydrating mask is more effective

During menstruation, the secretion of estrogen and progesterone in women's bodies decreases sharply, the skin metabolism slows down, the blood supply and sebum secretion of the skin increase, the skin becomes prone to yellowing, dehydration, and sensitivity, the resistance decreases, and acne and blackheads are prone to appear on the forehead and cheeks. At this time, it is necessary to give the skin rest and care in time.

The first thing is to ensure adequate sleep to avoid looking haggard and developing dark circles under the eyes. Eat spinach, B vitamins or soybeans and other foods containing phytoestrogens every day to improve skin quality and reduce the intake of greasy food. Because the skin becomes more sensitive and prone to allergies during menstruation, it is best to avoid wearing makeup and try to use mild and non-irritating skin care products. This is the best time to apply a hydrating mask, because the hormone level in the body rises rapidly during menstruation, and the residence time of water molecules in the dermis is greatly increased than usual, achieving twice the result with half the effort. You can use a hydrating mask every day or every other day to better lock in skin moisture.

Blood will coagulate when it encounters cold, so during menstruation you should avoid eating raw, cold or cold foods, such as various cold drinks, cold dishes, raw fruits, etc. It is best to temporarily quit coffee and strong tea. Instead, you should supplement with more brown sugar, for example, adding some when cooking rice porridge, which is very helpful for blood circulation.

Don't overdo dieting

Many women have plans to diet and lose weight. Should they continue when their period comes? Experts say that high-intensity exercise is not suitable during menstruation. People who are prone to more serious symptoms such as dysmenorrhea during their menstrual period will suffer from severe damage to their vitality and mental pain if they continue with a high-intensity weight loss plan.

The latest research has found that when women menstruate, their bodies naturally secrete a protease that is smaller than cells. This substance can decompose toxins and change the blood from acidic to weakly alkaline, achieving an effective detoxification effect. Therefore, experts recommend that you rest as much as possible during your menstrual period, which can help you detoxify, reduce the burden on your body, and maintain a beautiful face.

The methods of detoxification during menstruation are as follows:

1. Ensure drinking more than 2000ml of water to help the body excrete toxins;

2. Eat more crude fiber foods to help the metabolism of harmful substances;

3. Gently press Yongquan acupoint and Zusanli acupoint for 5 minutes each;

4. When applying the cream, use your hands along the facial texture to forcefully guide the toxins from the face to the collarbone;

5. In the last two days of menstruation, practice yoga for 20 minutes, brisk walk for 15 minutes, and add small stretching exercises every day.

Don't do cosmetic surgery during menstruation

We have talked so much about the benefits of beauty treatments during menstruation, but there is one thing everyone must remember: never undergo cosmetic surgery during menstruation. Studies have found that under normal circumstances, a blood clot should form quickly on the wound surface after cosmetic surgery. However, during menstruation, the level of pro-activator of plasminogen in women's blood increases to its maximum value, which can destroy the blood clots in cosmetic wounds and cause bleeding or prolonged bleeding. Pathogens take advantage of the situation and cause wound infection. In addition, women's disease resistance decreases during menstruation, making them very susceptible to sepsis and even death. Therefore, women must wait until three days after their menstruation ends before undergoing cosmetic surgery.
