3. Keep the skin and skin area moist
4. Do not touch the skin with your hands or arms
5. Avoid wearing makeup
6. Use a good eye makeup remover with a neutral scent and no alcohol
5. Change the makeup in the early stage of wear, when the skin is not too dry
7. Wear sunscreen or makeup that prevents UVA and UVB
8. Avoid taking any medication that may interfere with your condition
Wash face, hands, and feet sparingly
We can only wash our face, hands, and feet sparingly, as a result, if you wash the face, hands, and feet too much, then skin allergy can occur.
Wash your face, hands, and feet with lukewarm water and normal strength soap. Use a mild soap that won’t sting your skin, such as Ivory or Dove. If you have any type of skin condition, it is not good to wash the face with a soap that is too strong.
Wash the skin with your hand for up to two hours, depending on the time when you wash your skin. Use your fingers or a cotton ball to apply the water from the shower to the skin, and avoid getting the shower on your eyes and around your ears.
