Is it reliable to remove blackheads by dissolving oil into oil? What is the principle of dissolving oil into oil?

The principle of many makeup removers we use is to dissolve oil with oil, which is to use oil to dissolve the dirt of makeup. Many friends are curious whether blackheads can also be removed in this way. Let's take a look at it together.

It is OK to use oil to dissolve blackheads, but it refers to vegetable oil. Vaseline contains mineral oil, which is thick and airtight. It not only cannot dissolve blackheads, but also aggravates the blockage of pores, making blackheads more serious, and even causing acne and folliculitis.

Blackheads are open-type acne, which are formed by the oil secreted by the sebaceous glands blocking the pores. The openings are mixed with dust in the air and oxidized by oxygen to turn black, which is called blackheads. Because the main component of blackheads is oil, the principle of "oil dissolves in oil" and the force of the pores' own metabolism can dissolve and expel the blackheads. Compared with the damage to pores caused by needle removal of blackheads, nose patch removal of blackheads, etc., vegetable oil removal of blackheads is the safest and most promising way to restore delicate skin.

Common vegetable oils that can be used include olive oil and grapeseed oil, but jojoba oil is the first choice for facial use. Jojoba oil has a refreshing texture and is easily absorbed, and it is the vegetable oil that is closest to the skin's sebum film.

Daily cosmetics, such as liquid foundation and pressed powder, contain oil, powder, etc., which easily combine with sweat, oil and external dust produced by the skin's own metabolism to form oil-soluble dirt, which cannot be removed by general cleansing products.

Makeup remover oil uses the "lipophilic" property of oil ingredients to dissolve oil-soluble dirt, then emulsifies it by adding water and then rinses it off with water, thereby achieving the effect of thorough makeup removal and cleansing. This is "dissolving oil with oil."

Really not, as long as you use vegetable oil. In addition, be sure to wipe off the floating oil on your face after massage, otherwise excessive oil will cause acne. And it can be used on any skin, even oily skin will find that after using it for a period of time, the skin oil gradually becomes balanced and normal.

Makeup remover oil can only clean the oxidized oil at the end of blackheads, but the principle is not the so-called "oil dissolves oil". Not only makeup remover oil, but other products such as baby oil and skin care oil are not recommended for excessive massage when used. Long-term massage can indeed remove some keratin and oxidized sebum, but in the long run it is very easy to damage the keratin barrier of the skin and cause other more serious skin problems, such as inflammation, acne and skin sensitivity.
