The optimal usage of 10 daily necessities

Daily maintenance is inseparable from various care products, but many people do not know how much to use these products. It is not appropriate to use too much or too little skin care products. Do you want to know the best amount of different skin care products?

Shampoo = 1 mulberry (short hair), 1 strawberry (long hair)

When shampooing, you should not just pursue rich foam. In fact, for short hair, you only need to use a mulberry-sized amount of shampoo, and for long hair, use a strawberry-sized amount of shampoo. The foam produced is enough to have a cleansing effect.

Conditioner = 1 cherry (short hair), 2 cherries (long hair)

Excessive use of conditioner can easily increase the burden on the scalp and cause dandruff. It is recommended to use a cherry-sized amount for short hair and 2 cherry-sized amounts for long hair.

Toothpaste = 1 pea

Nowadays, many toothpaste TV commercials and posters show toothpaste being squeezed along the direction of the toothbrush to fill up the entire toothbrush. This is a serious misleading behavior, the purpose of which is to get consumers to use as much toothpaste as possible and increase toothpaste consumption. Experts point out that as long as you brush your teeth correctly, you only need an amount of toothpaste slightly larger than a soybean each time. Because excessive use of toothpaste can also be "toxic". For example, too much fluoride can cause brown spots on the teeth, and too much sediment in the stomach and intestines can cause abdominal pain.

If you feel uncomfortable, you can just squeeze the toothpaste horizontally on the toothbrush head.

Shower gel = 1 cherry

Shower gels generally contain lauramidopropyl betaine, which stimulates certain chemicals to penetrate the skin quickly. If you use shower gel excessively for a long time, these chemicals will be absorbed excessively by the body and will combine with calcium and iron, remaining in the subcutaneous tissue and causing dryness, allergic dermatitis, etc. In addition, there is an antioxidant BHT in the shower gel. When this substance encounters lauryl amide propyl betaine, it will become extremely active.

It is recommended to choose a shower gel that has no fragrance and simple functions. A cherry-sized amount is enough each time. If your body is not dirty, it is better to use only water. After washing, it is best to apply moisturizing lotion all over the body.

Sunscreen = 1 grape (face)

Speaking of the face alone, the areas most susceptible to tanning and often neglected are the forehead, bridge of the nose, lower lip, ears on both sides and the back of the neck. Usually, it is enough to take a Kyoho grape-sized amount of sunscreen and apply it all over the face.

Cleanser = 1 hazelnut

Nowadays, many facial cleansing products are concentrated. You only need to take a wild hazelnut-sized amount each time, dip it in water, and you can rub out a lot of foam, which is enough to clean grease and dust.

Moisturizing lotion = 2 small raisins

Each time, you can take an amount the size of 2 small raisins, and apply it from the inside out and from the bottom to the top to lock in the moisture.

Eye cream = 2 pine nuts

The skin around the eyes is extremely thin and has almost no pores. Using too many skin care products will actually put a burden on the skin around the eyes. The correct amount of eye cream should be the size of 2 pine nuts each time.

Night cream = 1 blueberry

A blueberry-sized amount of night cream is enough each time. If you have dry skin, the dosage can be increased appropriately, but only by half at most.

Essence = 1 green bean

Since essence has a high concentration, excessive use will increase the burden on the skin. It is best to use a pea-sized amount each time.
