One of the most common doubts regarding skincare is how and where to store the products to preserve them correctly. In the midst of this dilemma, the use of miniature refrigerators to store personal care formulas became popular, but is it really the right way to do it?
This is how you should store your skincare products to preserve them correctly.
How and where skincare should be stored
The cold can be beneficial for your products since it provides an effect that refreshes and reduces inflammation of the dermis, which is especially useful in morning routines before applying makeup. For this reason, there are those who prefer to store their skincare in the refrigerator, opting for the miniature version of the appliance.
However, it is not strictly necessary to store it this way. An article by DS Laboratories mentions that there is no decisive indication that skincare loses its effectiveness if it is not stored in the refrigerator, since most formulas, as well as the packaging, are designed so that the ingredients withstand moderate temperatures.
The general recommendation is to keep them in a cool, dry environment, where they are not exposed to direct sunlight. Now, if you decide to keep them in the cold, the ideal is to do so in an area specifically designated for that purpose, such as a shelf in the refrigerator or the famous “mini fridges.”
What are the products that do need special storage?
- Serums. In addition to their powerful effects on the skin, serums generate a feeling of freshness to the skin. Increase its duration by storing your favorites cold and taking them out only to apply them; This way you will not only be providing your skin with ingredients that benefit it, but you will also enjoy a relaxing moment.
- Face masks. The cold reduces inflammation and redness of the skin, which is why there are those who enjoy applying compresses as part of their routine. Refrigerate your masks and patches so that the temperature acts evenly.
- Gels and moisturizing creams. Knowing the magic of cold on the skin, you surely don’t want to limit yourself to experiencing its properties only on your face. Refrigerated moisturizing gels will make it easier for you to distribute them and will reduce any trace of dryness or stiffness on it.
- Rollers and masks. Rollers and gua shas are allies to massage your face and promote the absorption of different skincare products. When they are cold, they will slide more easily and the products will be used better.
