The relationship between humidity and skin

humidity and skin

When the season of dry air comes, you may be worried about the dryness of your skin.

Dry skin can cause wrinkles, sagging, and makeup to fall off.

However, have you ever tried too hard to moisturize your skin because it is flaky, and now your T-zone is shiny ......?

It depends on the individual, but for example, many people find that their forehead and nose tend to get shiny, while the area around their eyes and mouth tend to get dry.

What can you do to solve these problems and keep your skin clean?

Maintain proper humidity!

The clue is in the humidity.

"What? What?" You may be thinking, "Of course it's better to have a high humidity level since I have a problem with dry skin.

You may be thinking.

However, the truth is that humidity should not be too high.

In order to have beautiful skin, it is essential to maintain the right level of humidity.

Let's take a look at what the ideal humidity level is for your skin.

First of all, you probably know that dry air is not good for your skin.

When the air is dry, the moisture in your skin evaporates rapidly, causing it to become flaky.

On the other hand, what if the air is humid?

High humidity will certainly prevent your skin from drying out.

However, molds and germs that cause skin irritation also like high humidity.

If the humidity is too high, mold and bacteria, which are the skin's worst enemies, will multiply.

Even if you can prevent your skin from drying out, it would be a disservice if you end up with rough skin instead.

Therefore, I recommend a humidity level of 60%.

If the humidity level exceeds 60%, it is said that bacteria can easily grow.

When bacteria multiply, the risk of catching a cold increases, not to mention skin irritation.

It's also important not to set the humidity too high just because your skin is dry.

These days, simple hygrometers can be found at 100-yen stores.

Check the humidity frequently, and humidify when it is dry, or dehumidify when it is too humid.

Always being careful is the key to beautiful skin.

In order to keep your skin beautiful forever, please try to keep "proper humidity" in mind!
