On the internet, there are often some skincare methods “developed” by skincare experts themselves, these skincare methods will reverse the steps of everyone’s skincare habits, add a framework that cannot be separated from concentrated moisturizing and nourishing, and claim to be as effective as professional beauty salon treatments to attract some skincare novices to try. The situation is similar to what we often hear, such as “morning C evening A,” “oil application method,” and so on. Recently, there is another “internet celebrity skincare method” that has attracted everyone’s attention. Is this just a gimmick to harvest traffic, or is it a truly effective skincare method?
The “Three-Day Skincare Method” was popularized by Korean beauty blogger Blgga, focusing on improving skin within three days. She introduced this innovative skincare technique to her followers, receiving a very enthusiastic response. As the name suggests, the “Three-Day Skincare Method” helps the skin regain moisture and radiance over three consecutive days. Due to its simple method, no need to purchase additional skincare products, and being praised for its “skin-changing” effects, it sparked a blind trial frenzy online in extremely dry transitional weather conditions.
The method of the “Three-Day Skincare Regimen” may seem simple. The first step is to pour a high-water-content product, such as a commonly used toner, onto a cotton pad and apply it to the entire face. The second step is to evenly apply a thick-textured lotion or cream on the outer side of the damp cotton pad, then wait for ten minutes. After ten minutes, flip the cotton pad, which is now outward-facing and filled with lotion or cream, and continue to apply for another ten minutes. Finally, apply a layer of moisturizing lotion or skincare oil that locks in moisture. After three consecutive days, the skin will become hydrated and radiant.
It’s simple, isn’t it? It’s attractive, isn’t it? Replenishing the skin with a large amount of water without wasting time for 20 minutes is quite reasonable, right? For those eager to try, you must be aware of a major skin-damaging pitfall! The “three-day skincare method” quickly hydrates and moisturizes, but the entire process actually requires repeatedly flipping the cotton pad over, unless you can do this “three-day skincare method” in a completely sterile environment, the side that was originally outward-facing and full of lotion or cream is actually very likely to have been contaminated by bacteria in the air, and you unknowingly apply the cotton pad containing bacteria to your face, causing sensitivity that has yet to occur. In the future, when faced with any skincare methods from influencers, please research and analyze them rationally to avoid innocently stepping on skincare landmines!
