导读:晚霜不可滥用,来看看你适合用什么类型的晚霜。
The cynical among you might think that night creams are just another way for big beauty brands to cash in on your quest for flawless skin. But, while this might be true in some instances, there really are some surprising benefits to wearing them while you sleep.
你可能会认为晚霜只是大美容品牌基于你完美肌肤需求的另一种营销手段,虽然在某种意义上这确实是真的,但是在你睡觉的时候涂晚霜确实有一些令人惊人的好处。
Firstly, after a tough day battling impurities your skin naturally rejuvenates overnight and the majority of night creams are specifically designed to enhance this process by boosting the skin with moisture and also targeting specific skin concerns like fine lines or hyperpigmentation.
首先,你的皮肤经过了一整天的风吹日晒,在晚上它们会本能的自我恢复活力,而大多数的晚霜正是通过增强皮肤水分来促进这一过程,同时晚霜对一些特殊的皮肤问题也具有一定的针对性,比如细纹或色素沉着。
Not to mention the best part – all you have to do is slather on a layer and let it do its work fuss-free while you catch your forty winks.
而最好的就是你只需要在睡前涂上一层晚霜,然后你就可以放心大睡了。
Of course, to work sufficiently a cream must contain active ingredients in an adequate concentration, so what should you be looking out for?
当然,要想充分发挥晚霜作用,晚霜必须含有足够的活性成分,所以你应该注意什么?
Selecting the right cream for you can seem like a daunting task given the amount of products on the market. But looking at what it contains is a good place to start.
为你选择合适的晚霜似乎是一项艰巨的任务,因为市场上有大量的产品。但首先你最好看看它含有什么成分。
Here, we break down the key ingredients you should be using depending on your needs.
这里,我们根据你的需求来分项的说明你使用的晚霜应该具有的关键成分。
Dry skin
对于干燥的皮肤。
One that everyone should look out for in the colder months, some of us are plagued by dry skin year-round so it’s good to know which ingredients will help to restore a glowing complexion.
在寒冷的季节,每个人都应该留意一下,我们中的一些人整年都被干燥的皮肤问题所困扰,所以很乐于了解哪些成分能够帮助他们恢复容光焕发的肤色。
Products that contains humectants – ingredients that retain moisture – should be your go-to, so look out for words like glycerin, hyaluronic acid, tremella extract, AHA’s and sodium PCA. In drier months, these ingredients can be known to pull hydration so if you’re concerned follow with someone that contains mineral oil, shea butter or lanolin to seal it in.
含有保湿剂的产品—具有锁水的成分—应该是你的首选,所以要注意诸如甘油、透明质酸、银耳提取物、AHA和钠PCA等词汇。在干燥的季节,你应该了解这些成分可以用来补水,所以对于那些含有矿物油、牛油或羊毛脂的产品,你可以先把它们密封起来不用。
Oily/Blemish-prone skin
油性皮肤/易长痘皮肤
Those with blemish-prone skin are justifiably wary of what they put on their skin so the key here is to keep things simple. Products that contain ingredients like salicylic acid and retinol can help to control sebum levels – the latter of which is inactivated by the sun, so it makes sense to wear it while you sleep.
对于那些有痘痘皮肤的人,应对抹在自己皮肤上的东西保持警惕。所以针对这样的皮肤晚霜的关键是成分简单。含有水杨酸和视黄醇等成分的产品可以帮助控制皮脂水平—后者可以被阳光灭活,所以在你睡觉的时候涂抹是有一定益处的。
If it’s oily skin that’s your main concern, opt for a night cream that’s light, non-comedogenic (doesn’t block pores) and oil free.
如果你主要关心的是油性皮肤,那就选择一种清淡的、不含粉刺的(不堵塞毛孔)和无油的晚霜。
Anti-ageing
抗衰老
As well as aforementioned retinol, hyaluronic acid is a key ingredient to consider if you’re looking for a night cream to tackle fine lines.
如果你想寻找一种可以处理细纹的晚霜,除了上面提到的视黄醇,透明质酸是你需要考虑的另一个关键成分。
An ingredient that’s naturally present in the skin, hyaluronic acid attracts and maintains moisture levels, which means it’s great at leaving your skin feeling smooth and suitably plump.
透明质酸是一种天然存在于皮肤中的成分,它会吸水并保持你的皮肤水含量,这意味着它能很好地使你的皮肤变得光滑圆润。
