Medical Video: What’s Actually Inside a Pimple? Never Pop It!
Having skin that is always healthy and radiant is everyone's dream. To achieve this, use a variety of skincare products as needed starting from facial cleansers, moisturizing lotions, sunscreens, to serum. Every skincare product, both for the face and body, has a different composition. Therefore the storage method must also be different between products. Not infrequently, you may be confused whether this product should be stored in the refrigerator or at room temperature.
Incorrect storage can make the content in it ineffective in generating claimed benefits. See below for the correct way to store skincare products so they don't break quickly.
How to store the right skincare products
After buying skincare products that are suitable for your skin type, it's a good idea to pay attention to how they are stored because they can affect the content contained in them. Most skincare and cosmetic products may not be exposed to direct sunlight. For example, face creams that contain vitamin C can turn brown when exposed to air, light, and heat. As a result of this color change, the content of vitamin C in your face cream becomes less effective.
Of course you want to avoid this, right? After all, it's a pity after spending a little money to buy quality skincare products. Here are tips on storing skincare products at home.
Which can be stored in the refrigerator
Refrigerators or other cooling machines are the right place for storing skin care or cosmetic products made from natural ingredients, aka organic (containing no preservatives), products that contain vitamins A and C, perfume, nail polish, and waterproof mascara.
Vitamins A and C contained in anti-aging face creams and acne drugs are vitamins that are weak against heat so that the active ingredients will disappear faster if exposed to direct sunlight. Waterproof Mascara has an unstable content, which if exposed to heat will accelerate the evaporation of substances so that the product will dry out faster.
Cold temperatures can slow down the decomposition process in perfume and maintain the formula in nail polish. Products with gel, eye mask and facial spray can also be stored in the refrigerator because they can provide a more refreshing effect if stored in cold temperatures.
Which can be stored in the bedroom (room temperature)
There are several skincare products that are not suitable or can be placed in the refrigerator. Products with composition of oil, mineral oil, or wax asface oil, primer, and liquid foundation, for example, can change consistency if stored in the refrigerator so that it is better at room temperature.
Product sunscreen and products with natural oil-based must be stored in a dark place and not in direct contact with the sun, as in a dresser drawer to avoid the oxidation process. Makeup with preservatives and not containing non-active ingredients can be stored on the dressing table as usual.
That may be stored in the bathroom
The bathroom is a humid environment and the temperature is always changing. Therefore, do not store liquid cosmetics, facial and body moisturizers, perfumes, organic cosmetics, and skin scrubs with sugar and salt content. A humid environment can also be a means for bacteria to breed in some of these skin care products and can affect the shape and active ingredients therein.
Enough of your toiletries, such as soap, toothpaste, shampoo and conditioner stored in the bathroom.
