AVOID THE ERASER EFFECT ON YOUR SKIN WITH YOUR MOISTURIZING CREAM👇🏼

The eraser effect on the skin occurs when your cosmetics are not absorbed well and produce those balls similar to those of an eraser. It appears for various reasons, find out what they are to avoid it.

Who hasn't experienced this? You're using your face cream and suddenly, you notice that your face starts to pill up . You've probably experienced the eraser effect, as this phenomenon is also known, on your own skin.

There are several reasons why this may happen to you. One is the cream itself , which may not be of adequate quality or may have expired, and the other is how you are using it .

WHY DOES THE SKIN ERASER EFFECT OCCUR?👇🏼

When looking for cosmetic products to care for our skin and combat the signs of premature aging, we often come across creams that clump together. This is what is known as the erasing effect on the skin.

PROBLEM IN PRODUCT FORMULATION

Moisturizing facial creams are made up of a greasy part and a watery part. Depending on the type of skin they are intended for, one or the other will be more important . 

Thus, in creams for dry skin, there are more fatty active ingredients to protect the skin from premature aging and combat the feeling of tightness.

In oily skin or acne-prone skin, the aqueous phase is more important, as it should help reduce excessive sebum production.

The pilling or clumping effect can also occur around the eyes when applying certain cosmetic products.

The eye contour area is particularly delicate and prone to dryness and sensitivity, which can contribute to pilling if the wrong product is used or if it is not applied correctly.

By their very nature, both parts cannot be mixed together, forcing formulators to use emulsifiers and gelling agents that allow them to join together in the form of an emulsion.

The problem arises when, for some reason, these ingredients are not well adjusted in the formula. When this happens, our skin absorbs the fatty phase too quickly , but We continue spreading the cream as usual, and since only the aqueous phase is on the surface , the pellets appear.

This is especially true for cosmetics that contain less fat and also contain some ingredients known as film-forming ingredients due to their ability to form a film on the skin.

It can also occur in cosmetics that include silicones, mica, iron oxide or talc.

AVOID THE ERASER EFFECT ON YOUR SKIN
  • Apply the right amount of product
  • Let it absorb before applying the next one.
  • Don't use too many products.
  • Respect the order in your skin care: cleanser, toner, serum, cream, sunscreen.
  • Don't apply moisturiser to oily skin. Always wash it off first.
  • Avoid intense massages.

MISUSE OF YOUR COSMETICS

 1- INCOMPATIBLE COSMETICS

There are times when you use several cosmetics that are incompatible with each other. In these cases, if the first one has not yet been fully absorbed, it is normal for pills to appear.

2- YOU PUT ON MORE CREAM THAN NECESSARY

Another possible factor is that you apply more than necessary. If you use a serum , always keep in mind that these are highly concentrated and fast-absorbing formulas. One or two pumps should be enough. In the case of creams , the amount needed is equivalent to a hazelnut.

OhMyKoko facial creams have a light texture so they are absorbed quickly without leaving traces of grease .

Opt for natural formulas that respect the needs of the sebaceous glands and protect the skin barrier. Natural cosmetics help maintain your skin's natural protection factor, effectively prevent signs of premature aging, correct wrinkles and lines, and without compromising the health of your skin.

3- TOO ENERGETIC MASSAGE

If it is important to apply the right amount of product, it is also important not to massage in too much.

4- YOUR SKIN IS NOT PREPARED

There is also the possibility that your skin needs exfoliation. A buildup of dead cells or not being completely clean means that it is not ready .

Imagine that you have oily skin and you haven't cleaned it properly. When you apply the cream, the water in the cream and the oil in your skin would mix, causing this effect.
