Have you ever seen a jar of cold cream and wondered what it is for? The answer will surprise you. The cold cream has a rejuvenating effect, cleanses the skin and moisturizes it !! This product is a deep cleansing moisturizer, acne treatment and make-up removal, and is also used as a face mask! Cold creams have been around since before all other acne remedies and all the sophisticated acne treatments that exist today. In fact, women have used such a cream with 200 for skin care !! Here are some really effective ways to use it.

Steps

  1. 1 Buy cold cream from a pharmacy or make your own. Recipes can be found online. Ponds Cold Cream (Green Lid Jar) is the most common brand in the US, but some women prefer the less popular options that contain sodium borate, an ingredient used in early Ponds formulas. Jergens face cream is also a type of cold cream sold in pharmacies.
  2. 2 Use a cold cream in the morning to cleanse your face. Wash your hands. Place a small amount of cream on your fingertip. Apply to face from bottom to top starting from chin. Wait a minute or two for the cream to dissolve the sebum that clogs the pores.
  3. 3 Remove the cream from your face. There are two ways to remove the cream. If you have dry skin, take a soft tissue and dab your face gently. Remaining cream on your face will help moisturize your skin. If you have oily or normal skin, use a warm towel to remove the cream from your face. Rinse off any remaining cream from your face with warm water.
  4. 4 Let your face dry naturally, although you can also rub your face with a clean towel.
  5. 5 When your face is dry, you can apply a cosmetic toner. During the first half of the twentieth century, women often used clay, an inexpensive and effective tonic sold in pharmacies.
  6. 6 After the skin is dry, some women apply moisturizers. Others believe that a cold cream is enough to moisturize the skin!
  7. 7 Apply a small amount of cold cream to dry and inflamed skin and rub it in. The cold cream will moisturize these areas, making it easier to apply makeup.
  8. 8 Rubbing a small amount of cold cream into the newly formed areas of the rash will heal quickly.
  9. 9 If you touch your skin often, then apply a small part of the cold cream after disinfection; Well-treated areas of skin will help to quickly heal acne without leaving marks. The cold cream will also protect your skin from irritation while applying makeup.
  10. 10 Optionally, you can use non-dry, non-acne makeup.
  11. 11 Repeat the process in the evening. If you do makeup, remove it first with a cold cream. Use soft tissues to wipe the cream off your face. Then cleanse your face as described earlier.
  12. 12 Optional: if your skin has a lot of dark spots and clogged pores, or if it is dry, apply a small amount of the cream on your face before bed. Do not rinse off the cream until morning and then wipe your face as usual. Sleep on an old (but clean) pillowcase. The cream can leave greasy marks on bedding.

Tips

  • Do not apply cold cream to wet face! The cold cream contains oil, so the cream dissolves in the pores so easily. Oil dissolves fat but repels water. If your face is wet, the cold cream will not be able to penetrate deep into your pores.
  • In the US, Ponds Cold Cream is sold in jars with a green lid! The Blue Lid Ponds Jar is a regular lotion.

Warnings

  • From the cold cream, traces and dirt from clogged pores come to the surface of the skin. At first, you may notice the production of glands from the pores immediately after washing your face. These are the contents of your pores prior to using the cream. If this happens, use clay masks to remove impurities.
  • Most cold creams contain mineral oils. Although mineral oil (odorless baby oil) does not cause acne (does not clog pores), some people are sensitive to this substance. If you are sensitive to mineral oils, do not use cold creams.

What do you need

  • Cold cream
  • Soft wipes, cotton balls, or a towel to remove cold cream from your face
  • Optional: any cosmetic toner, moisturizer and clay face mask
  • Recommended: an old, clean pillowcase.
