Is the oil compress method scientific? What are the precautions for the oil compress method?

Oil application is a popular skin care method nowadays. This oil application method is mainly suitable for people with dry skin. People with dry skin have less oil secretion, so this method is suitable for them. Oily skin is not suitable for this method.

The oil compress method was introduced from Japan. It is a skin care method that uses oil to nourish the skin. I believe everyone has heard of this statement. It can help the skin lock in moisture and prevent the moisture from being vomited out, thereby relieving dry skin. People with dry skin can buy a bottle of essential oil to try.

1. Use the right skin

Using oil to nourish the skin is more suitable for people with very dry skin or who like oily skin care products.

2. Use the right amount

The amount does not need to be too much, generally four or five drops at a time are enough.

3. Use the right oil

If you want a good moisturizing effect, it is recommended to choose essential oils (essences) whose active ingredients are similar to sebum (such as wax fat, squalene, cholesterol esters, triglycerides, etc.) for oil compress.

Even if some essential oils use mineral oil as a base oil, don't worry too much. The mineral oils used in cosmetics are generally highly refined and highly pure, which is very mild to the skin, will not clog pores, and will not cause acne. It is recommended not to use essential oils of unknown origin on your face, because many essential oils are not pure and come from irregular sources, which may cause skin irritation and photosensitivity problems.

The oil compress method is still useful, provided that you buy the essential oil that suits you and that you have dry skin. In this way, the effect will be very good. Especially in the autumn and winter seasons now, it is easy for the skin to become dry and dehydrated. The oil compress method can solve these problems in a very targeted way.
