Billions of toxins are produced in the skin every day. This is normal and physiological. But only until the body successfully removes these toxins. As soon as it stops coping, it immediately affects the condition of the skin: it becomes dull, becomes looser, and shadows appear on the face. Sensitivity may worsen and rashes may appear. When a person smokes, sleeps little, drinks alcohol, drinks not enough water, gets sick, takes medications, lives in an aggressive environment (read, a metropolis), lives under stress, eats poorly, and so on, toxins are formed more actively. And here we get a vicious circle: the more toxins, the more difficult it is for the skin to cope with them. The situation can be resolved. You need to establish a regime to the best of your ability and ability, load up on green vegetables (spinach, broccoli, herbs, avocado), and monitor your water intake. And, of course, use special care.
Beauty brands started talking about detox ten years ago. Back then, the search query “skin detox” seemed like something exotic. Today everything has changed. Serums and masks, products for the area around the eyes and for the body are produced with the prefix “detox”. There are detox dietary supplements, detox bath salts and detox cleansers. You should use them when your skin seems dull and tired. The regime will also have to be adjusted.

Toxins are formed more actively from a lack of oxygen. This is a typical story for those who don’t spend time outdoors, don’t play sports, and don’t move much. Then the removal and disposal of waste in the skin becomes more difficult, toxins become more aggressive - and prevent cells from doing their normal work more and more persistently. In such situations, products with encapsulated oxygen or oxygen peroxide work well. They release oxygen molecules and help the skin “breathe”.

Deep cleansers help get rid of toxins. Most often they contain clay, which can “pull out” the contents of the pores. This visually smoothes the skin texture, gets rid of city dust and makeup residues, and gives the face freshness.

Features of using detox masks
When applying masks to the skin of the face, it is necessary to take into account a possible allergic reaction to one of the components. Therefore, if after applying the mask you feel severe itching or burning or redness of the skin, it is recommended to thoroughly rinse the mixture and switch to other components. In addition, do not get carried away with applying detox masks. One procedure every 7-10 days will be enough. To get the desired effect, cosmetologists recommend performing the procedure at night - before bed. This will allow the skin to recover and rest.
Detoxification of facial skin is necessary at every age, regardless of skin condition and type. To ensure that in old age the skin has fewer wrinkles, is smooth and elastic, the application of detox masks should be practiced from a young age.
