On the road to whitening, every girl hopes to be whiter and whiter... In order to achieve the ultimate dream of skin whitening, women never feel tired and try all kinds of whitening methods. However, whitening is not an overnight success. What should we do? 1. Avoid overexposure If there is no particularly important reason, try to avoid going out between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. in summer. Because during this time of the day, the sunlight is the strongest, and the ultraviolet rays are the most harmful, posing the greatest danger to the skin. 2. Equip yourself when going out Whenever you go out, unless it's at night, you should wear a hat, carry an umbrella, wear sunglasses, and put on long-sleeved clothes and pants as much as possible. Generally speaking, doing two or three of these things is enough, but never do none of them, the result of being exposed without protection is predictable. 3. Apply sunscreen Again, whenever you go out during the day, regardless of the season, you should apply sunscreen. In the peak summer season, you can reapply it every 2-3 hours. What kind of eye cream is better for removing dark circles? When swimming, especially at the beach, you should definitely apply sunscreen. At this time, choose a water-resistant product with a higher sun protection factor. 4. Sunscreen all exposed skin Whenever you go out, any skin that is exposed should be coated with sunscreen, especially areas like arms, legs, and feet that are often overlooked. This can effectively prevent the early formation of "age spots" and reduce the appearance of "two-color lotus roots." 5. Shower promptly After engaging in outdoor activities, no matter the degree of sun exposure, you should shower upon returning home. Gently wipe your entire body in a massaging motion, first with warm water, then with cold water. After showering, apply moisturizer to your entire body. 6. Post-sun repair If conditions allow after sun exposure, you can use a towel wrapped around ice cubes to cool the red, sunburned skin, alleviating local heat. Try to avoid scratching your skin with your hands, as this will exacerbate the production of post-sun spots. 7. Magic of aloe vera After sun exposure, scrape out the aloe vera pulp from fresh aloe and apply it to your skin. It has soothing, calming, and whitening effects. This little method is very effective for post-sun repair. 8. Drink more water Water is the healthiest beauty elixir. Upon waking up, drink a large glass of lukewarm water while still fasting, or add a slice of lemon to the water for double the beautifying and detoxifying effects. 9. Eat more high VC foods These can effectively help melanin reduction, assist in whitening, and enhance immunity. Cucumbers, strawberries, tomatoes, and oranges are all foods rich in large amounts of vitamin C. 10. Dietary and medication precautions Stay away from artificial additives, eat less fried food, and use hormones and contraceptives cautiously, as these can directly lead to melanin deposition and freckle production. 11. Ensure adequate sleep Sufficient and high-quality sleep can ensure normal nighttime metabolism of the skin, which is extremely helpful for whitening. 12. Good living habits Smoke less, drink less alcohol, consume fewer stimulating beverages, maintain a regular lifestyle, stay cheerful, and naturally your skin will radiate with whiteness and softness.
