How to tell whether a facial cleanser is good or bad? Just use a glass of water

Many people simply look at the brand or recommendations when buying facial cleansers, thinking that as long as it can clean the face, they often don’t care about other things. However, facial cleansers can be good or bad. If used improperly, it can easily harm the skin and damage the stratum corneum. So many people will seek some methods to distinguish the quality of facial cleansers. In fact, the easiest way to distinguish the quality of facial cleansers is to use a glass of water. So how can you use a glass of water to distinguish the quality of facial cleansers?

Generally, three situations will occur: sticking to the edge of the cup, floating on the water surface, or sinking to the bottom of the cup.

These three situations illustrate the ingredients it contains.

1 The thing stuck to the edge of the cup is animal fat. It is extracted from animals. Let’s think about it, which cosmetics factory has an animal slaughterhouse next to it? No, after the animals are killed in the slaughterhouse, the bones and fur are piled aside. When a large pile is accumulated, they are taken to the cosmetics factory. Who knows how long they have been piled there? If it is summer, will those things deteriorate and rot? When we eat spoiled food, we will vomit and have diarrhea. The same goes for our skin. Cosmetics made with spoiled food will cause allergies. Manufacturers know that this will cause allergies, so they add soothing agents and desensitizing agents during the manufacturing process. Soothing agents are anesthetics for the immune nerves. They may feel good at first, but not over time. Beauticians know that the same brand of cosmetics must be changed after 2-3 years of use. What are you changing? What was replaced was the soothing agent.

2 The substance floating on the water is mineral oil. Mineral oil is extracted from petroleum that is extracted from the ground. The first layer is used for gasoline; the second layer is light oil; the third layer is asphalt, which is used to pave roads. This type of cosmetics is made with the second layer of lepton oil. Lepton oil has a good moisturizing effect, but it is not breathable. It is like wearing a pair of leather pants in winter, the legs are wet and not breathable, which will affect the permeability of the skin and accelerate skin aging.

3 Heavy metals, such as lead and mercury, sink to the bottom of the cup. There are reports in newspapers that children born to pregnant women who frequently use whitening products are more likely to suffer from cerebral palsy.

If the products you use do not stick to the edge of the cup, do not float, and do not sink to the bottom of the cup, then congratulations, because you have chosen the right good things and you can use them with peace of mind. You can try it at home, but don’t use the wrong things blindly, as it will not be worth it. After all, health is much more important than beauty.

There is also a simple way to identify cosmetics. Find a silver ornament and apply cosmetics on it. If the silver ornament turns black, it means that the cosmetics contain lead and mercury. This method is applicable to all basic care and makeup!
