Decorative cosmetics, which are used to create makeup, are an integral part of a woman's image. Makeup must be removed properly so as not to damage the surface of the skin. For such purposes, many cosmetics are used, one of which is milk. A similar name is often heard, but few people can give a clear answer to the question, what is it, and when can you use makeup remover milk.
Beautiful skin can only be achieved with proper care.
About cosmetic milk
Today, not only classic foundation is used to even out the complexion. A modern manufacturer offers various products that are applied to the face, hiding skin imperfections and smoothing the surface. Therefore, you should not naively think that simple water can wash away so many substances and cleanse pores. If traces of cosmetics are not completely removed, the skin will begin to age very quickly and its condition will worsen.
One of the cosmetics that are designed to cleanse the skin is milk. It was originally produced for use with dry and sensitive skin. Today you can find a lot of options for products that can be used with both normal and mixed types. The main task of the described cosmetic product is to cleanse the surface of the skin from dirt, dust and decorative cosmetics.
Important! The milk always contains essential oils, so its use is unacceptable for oily skin.
Features of the composition
The composition can be varied, but the fundamental component is water, with which the required consistency is achieved. Also, the composition necessarily contains special substances and cleaning fractions. They are responsible for cleansing and moisturizing the skin. The following components are responsible for additional care: essential oils, vitamins, plant extracts, antioxidants. They determine the accompanying functions of milk: oxygen supply, moisturizing, skin tightening, and so on.
On a note. The main difference between cosmetic milk and makeup remover cream is the concentration of fats.

These are pieces of fabric soaked in an emulsion that dissolves dirt. We all love the napkin format.

On a note. A new trend has come from Asia - to distribute the product with your hands over the face, taking into account massage lines. It is very important that your hands are completely clean.
When applying milk, you should adhere to the following rules:
- The product is distributed on the fingertips and applied to the face with gentle circular movements. This helps improve blood circulation.
- Movements during the distribution of milk should be as follows: from the center to the periphery, from the center of the forehead in different directions, from the corners of the lips to the center of the auricle, from the central part of the chin to the earlobes.
- You should also apply the product to the tip of the nose, then spread upward along the wings of the nose.

Finally
Peeling with lactic acid should be done no more than once every 12 months. After the procedure, you need to protect your face from direct ultraviolet radiation. To achieve the best effect, especially if you have acne, you need to peel with lactic acid in courses. For a person with problem skin, three to six sessions are enough. The interval between procedures should vary from one to two weeks.
It is advisable to do this procedure in the cold season, when the sun's rays are not active enough. In spring and summer it does not bring the expected effect.

Do I need to wash off the milk?
At its core, milk, which is used to remove makeup, does not require rinsing with water. But do not think that the skin is ready to apply the cream. Before performing this step, you should remove the thin film on the face that forms after treatment with milk using a tonic.

The texture has a special dense structure that does not allow the surface to breathe. The applied cream will not get into the pores and will not be able to have the desired effect. Therefore, it is imperative to use an intermediate option between cream and milk - tonic.
Important! If you do not use a toner after milk, comedones may form on the skin, and the general condition of the skin may worsen.
Makeup removal is performed with gentle, light movements.
How to make a remedy at home
If you haven’t found a suitable cosmetic milk for yourself, you can try making it yourself. To do this, use the following recipe:
- 200 ml of cream is mixed with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and egg yolk. This composition is suitable for normal skin; for sensitive skin, you can add a few tablespoons of chamomile decoction to it. The composition is not suitable for removing eye makeup;
- To remove eye make-up, use another milk recipe - grated fresh cucumber is combined with natural yogurt (about 100 ml).
Natural oils are considered good ingredients for such compositions; among other things, they also have a significant positive effect on the condition of the face. For example, a few drops of castor oil in the last recipe will accelerate the growth and increase the thickness of eyelashes.
Advantages and disadvantages
Like any cosmetic product, makeup remover milk has its pros and cons. Among the advantages it should be noted:
- No water required for removal.
- The composition is the most gentle and suitable for removing makeup for sensitive skin.
- Does not cause irritation.
- There is no soap, alkali or other aggressive components in the composition.
- In addition to cleansing, it provides additional care, nutrition and hydration.
- Does not destroy the hydrolipid layer.
The main disadvantage is the need to use a tonic before applying the cream. But experts believe that even this point should not be considered a disadvantage, since after using foam or gel to remove cosmetics, the use of toner is also required.
Proper use of decorative cosmetics and facial care products will help maintain your health and youth. An important and primary condition when choosing any cosmetics should be quality. It is also important that the product is suitable for a specific skin type. Before buying, you need to find out everything about the makeup remover milk of the brand you have chosen.
