Hello and welcome to another interesting skincare information on CPI Channel. Today we will be checking out The Good and Bad Of Face Serum on the Skin.

What is Serum?
Before we dive into the good and bad of face serum, first let’s understand what face serum is.
Face serums are lightweight moisturizers that penetrate deeper into your skin to deliver active ingredients. Unlike lotion, serums are lighter in weight making it easy for them to penetrate into your skin.

Caution
Before we continue, please note that serums are not moisturizers and do not do the work of a lotion. The major advantage of serum over lotion is that it is richer in high concentrated ingredients and has the ability to penetrate the skin because of its lightweight. So if you are looking for a moisturizer, I will advise you to go for a lotion instead of a serum. It is important to read the producer’s manual to know the exact function of the serum as functions of serum may vary.

Advantages of Serum

1. Clears and Prevents Blemishes
Most serums have ingredients like zink, tea extract, and aloe vera in high concentration which prevents bacteria and reduces skin inflammation.

2. Repairs Sun Damages and wrinkles
Serums contain vitamin a that has the ability to restore your skin to its original and youthful look.

Vitamin C and Retinol Serum are the two most popular serums in stores today. These serums are highly effective however not knowing the pro and cons of these serums may hurt your skin in a great way. In this post, I will be sharing with you the advantages and disadvantages of these products including their comparison. To help you make a better decision when next you are buying a serum.

1. Vitamin C Serum

Vitamin C serum is used topically as a skincare ingredient to help treat hyperpigmentation, blemishes, spots, acne scars and add extra protection against free radicals.


Disadvantages of Vitamin C Serum

The disadvantage of Vitamin C serum is that some vitamin c serum contains vitamin c in its pure form known as ascorbic acid. Ascorbic acid works at a very low PH, making it very irritating to many skin types, especially sensitive skin. Another disadvantage of vitamin C is that it is a very unstable antioxidant in its pure form. It oxidizes quickly, which means it will not be effective for long once the bottle is open. Also, it can become a pro-oxidant that can cause more irritation, inflammation, and acne, This worsens the skin aging instead of improving it.

Solution

To avoid these problems with vitamin c serum, Always buy vitamin C serum that contains vitamins C in form of sodium ascorbyl phosphate. It is suitable for even the most sensitive skin types and helps with reducing inflammation and acne.


2. Retinol Serum

Being pregnant is a thing of joy for many women, but it comes with some skin challenges like stretch marks and loose skin. Loose skin after pregnancy can be emotionally frustrating for women who want their bodies to go back to the way they were before pregnancy. In this post, I will be sharing with you how to tighten your loose skin after pregnancy.

No 1.
Massage With Oils

Plant-based oil is a very good skin repairer because they contain antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. A good example of plant-based oil is almond oil which is very good in eliminating stretch marks. Other carrier oils like coconut oil and jojoba oil can help tighten the skin.

No 2.
Apply Aloe Vera Gel

Aloe vera gel has natural skin-tightening properties that can help get rid of loose skin after pregnancy. It also helps to improve skin elasticity because it contains Malic Acid and is a non-greasy moisturizer.

There are so many skincare products you may think that are good for your face but are very bad for your facial skin, and some of these skincare products may be what you use daily without knowing the danger they pose to your facial skin. Today on cpichannel.com, I will be sharing with you 5 types of skincare products you must never put on your face.

No.1
Petroleum Jelly Product

Petroleum jelly has been seen for a long time as the ultimate moisturizer for the skin, it could be ok to apply it on the body but definitely note the face. This is because petroleum jellies are gotten from the bottom of petroleum barrels and it is not good for your skin, especially for your facial skin. Petroleum Jelly also can clog the skin poss and worsen the effect of acne on the face. There are other forms of natural skin jelly you can substitute for petroleum jelly and they are very nice and safe for your skin especially facial skin.

No. 2
Bar Soap

If you are looking for perfect facial skin, then bar soap is not a good facial soap option for you. This is because bar soap contains sodium lorel sulfite and it is very dry to the skin. Sodium Lorel sulfite is the substance that causes the soap to lather very well, but unfortunately, the lathering substance can dry the skin hence giving you a dry face. Although applying moisturizers can help keep your face moist after washing with bar soap, it is important to note that washing your face with a bar soap has a long time negative effect on the face. Bar soaps can be used on the body but ensure you keep them away from your facial skin.

Good thing you have listed and expatiated on those sore ingredients to avoid in skin care products.
Hardly would you find a lotion not having one or more of the under listed.

I would be grateful if you can list some products that does not contain any of the ? Pernicious ingredients you highlighted.

Thanks

So many skincare products today are filled with toxic chemicals. Although many of these chemicals or ingredients will not cause you any instant harm or kill you immediately. However, applying a potentially dangerous chemical to your skin regularly can have a potentially harmful impact on your skin and health in general. In this CPI CHANNEL post, I will be sharing with you 5 harmful ingredients to avoid when buying a skincare product.


1. Ethanolamine

Ethanolamine may be written on a skincare product as DEA, TEA, MEA. This ingredient is used to make skincare products creamy and feel better on the skin. However, exposure to Ethanolamine has been linked to liver cancer and precancerous changes in the thyroid and skin. So it is potentially harmful to your skin and health in general.


2. Parabens

Parabens may be seen on skincare products as Isopropyl-Paraben, butyl-Paraben, etc but they all end in paraben. Parabens are used as preservatives in skincare products but they are known as xenoestrogens which means they mimic estrogens in the body and that is very bad. This is because they can alter your hormone and your health especially in the area of breast cancer. So it is best and safe to avoid parabens in your skincare product.


3. Polyethylene Glycol

Polyethylene Glycol may be found in skincare products as PEG compounds. This ingredient is widely used as thickeners and moisturizers, It is popularly found in moisturizing lotions and creams. The problem with Polyethylene Glycol is that it may be contaminated with ethylene oxide and 1,4 dioxane which are known carcinogens. Because they can be contaminated it is best to avoid this compound in your skincare product.


4. Formaldehyde Releasers

This may be found in skincare products as Quaternium Diazolidinyl Urea, DMD hydantoin. The problem with these ingredients is that when apply to the skin, they realize Formaldehyde and Formaldehyde cause DNA damage and cancer.


5. Phthalates

Phthalates can be seen on a skincare products as DBP, DEHR, DEP, etc. It is also used in making the cream feel better. However, the problem with this ingredient is that it may cause birth defects and cancer. Do ensure that Phthalates in any form are not part of your skincare ingredients.


Conclusion

These are the 5 top Harmful Ingredients To Avoid When Buying A Skincare product. Like I mentioned earlier, many of these chemicals or ingredients will not cause you any instant harm immediately. However, applying a potentially dangerous chemical to your skin regularly can have a potentially harmful impact on your skin and health in general. I hope you find this information valuable.
