(1) Adjusting measures according to the time, beauty in four seasons

      According to the climatic characteristics of different seasons, it is the principle of using according to the time to choose the appropriate Chinese medicine beauty method. For example, in spring and summer, when the climate changes from temperature to heat, the yang qi rises, the body is loose, and the sweat pores are always open. It is advisable to choose some cosmetic products that will not block the sweat pores and prevent the skin from excreting sweat, such as beauty powder, and beauty serum, or choose Massage beauty law, acupuncture beauty law. Especially in the hot summer, it is not advisable to use cosmetic ointments rich in oil, so as not to close the sweat pores of the cold facial skin, hinder the skin excretion, and make the yang qi stagnate in the interior to induce or aggravate facial diseases. For oral administration, it is advisable to choose oral beauty prescriptions that are relatively bland in nature and flavor and can replenish visceral qi and blood, such as decoctions, pills, and powders. However, it is not advisable to use beauty medicinal wine, especially not to use drugs with strong pungent and warm diffusing power, such as aconite, cinnamon, ephedra, Qiang Huo, Asarum, cassia twig, etc., so as to avoid excessive consumption of human qi and blood, which adversely affects the effect of qi and blood on qi and blood.

According to the characteristics of the geographical environment in different regions, it is the principle of using appropriate measures to adapt to local conditions to select appropriate Chinese medicine beauty methods. Different regions, due to different climatic conditions and living habits, have different physiological functions and pathological characteristics of facial skin. The choice of cosmetic method should vary from place to place. For example, the windy climate in the north is dry, and people's skin is also relatively dry. It is advisable to choose some beauty products with better emollient effects, such as beauty creams, beauty liquids, and masks. People in the northwest region, especially in ethnic minority areas, eat a lot of meat, and their facial skin secretes vigorously. It is not appropriate to use cosmetic creams containing more oil, but drier cosmetic powders should be used. People who are exposed to the sun a lot should choose a mask to protect their skin and reduce their exposure to ultraviolet rays to the skin.

According to people's age, gender, physique, living habits, and other characteristics, choosing the appropriate Chinese medicine beauty method is the principle of use according to individual conditions. For example, women lose a lot of blood due to menstruation and childbirth. Generally, people around the age of 30 will gradually have wrinkles on their faces and their skin will start to become rough. Therefore, they should develop the habit of massaging their faces regularly, then take beauty prescriptions and medicated meals orally, and use cosmetic powders and cosmetic products for external use. Liquid, beauty ointment, beauty paste, beauty mask, etc., can delay facial aging and beautify the face. But external beauty products alone are not necessarily very suitable for the elderly. The elderly should generally choose beauty medicated diets and qigong beauty methods. Through medicated diets to nourish the qi and blood of the five internal organs, and qigong exercises to clear the meridians, they can gradually receive the effect of radiant redness and youthful appearance. Another example is that people's skin types are not the same, and the applicable cosmetic methods are not the same. People with sexual skin.

It is advisable to use beauty powder or beauty liquid, and pay attention to avoid spicy and irritating products. For people with neutral skin, it is advisable to use honey beauty products in the beauty ointment.

As mentioned earlier, people are an organic whole, and the face is only a part of this organic whole. Only with a healthy body can you be beautiful, and only when the five internal organs function properly and the qi and blood are full, the face will be youthful. Therefore, when beautifying the face, every friend should not "beautify the outside and look at the inside". It is necessary to use external beauty products to moisturize and whiten, reduce wrinkles, rejuvenate the skin and treat facial diseases, but also pay attention to physical fitness. , to maintain the normal function of the five internal organs, the qi and blood are full. That is to say, it is necessary to comprehensively use various beauty methods and mobilize all the means of beauty for beauty. An external beauty device can be used in combination with an internal beauty prescription or medicated diet. If it can be combined with acupuncture, massage, or the qigong beauty method, the beauty effect will be better. In addition to nourishing the body and nourishing the qi and blood of the viscera, it is also necessary to pay attention to the mind and body and adjust the beauty. As the saying goes: "Smile and smile, ten years old, worry one sorrow. Whitehead." Don't be too extreme with the seven emotions, keep a happy mood for a long time, and it is also very important for the beauty of the face. You can practice qigong more at ordinary times. You must know that qigong not only strengthens the body, but also regulates emotions by guarding the dantian with the mind, guiding the qi with the mind, and eliminating distracting thoughts. Therefore, most people who have practiced qigong for a long time are cheerful and bright.

The above are the principles we should abide by when choosing beauty methods. But no matter which beauty method you choose, there is a problem of perseverance and long-term use. This is especially true for those who are frail or those with poor facial skin conditions. Because nourishing viscera qi and blood, dredging meridians, moisturizing and whitening, etc. are not as immediate as makeup and beauty, it takes a certain amount of time to take effect. Therefore, don't be impatient when using beauty methods, especially young friends should be more patient, avoid fishing for three days and drying nets for two days. There is nothing difficult in the world, only those who are interested, as long as you choose the appropriate beauty method and persevere, your desired beauty goal will be achieved.
