5 Facts About Patting Your Face To Tighten Your Skin

JAKARTA – Having tight, glowing facial skin, looks young, and without blemishes, is the dream of many people. Not only women, having perfect skin is done to give up time to provide special care.

A unique treatment carried out by women from various countries is patting or slapping their own faces. This traditional treatment is performed in Korea and Thailand. What are the facts behind this method to get perfect facial skin? Here's the list.

1. Benefits of patting the face

Slapping your own face does sound extreme to get tight skin. However, in fact this is done to get the desired effect.

Reported by CNN, Christine Chang, founder of Glow Recipe, said the facial patting technique is done so that the nutritional content in beauty products is fully absorbed. He said, this method is effective and can quickly dry the skin after cleaning.

2. Done after using skin care

After cleaning the face using a milk cleanser and toner, washing the face, and using moisturizing cream and serum, the habit of patting the face is often done, including by women in Indonesia.

Chang explains that this method helps microcirculation and keeps the skin firm. Instead of wiping it with a towel, especially after washing your face, it's better to pat the skin on your face.

3. Clap 50 times

With different benefits, Angela Kim, founder of American-based Insider Beauty, says that you pat your face 50 times to improve blood circulation and get a natural blush on your cheeks.

4. Requires hand speed

Kim added, how to slap the face 50 times requires hand speed. Especially in applying moisturizer at night.

5. Done in the afternoon or evening

Not as imagined in face slapping. Slapping the face is done with small movements and in the afternoon or evening. After the facial skin is cleaned of makeup, then it is given nutrients to keep it well hydrated.

Well, according to Kim, Korean women believe that the skin only takes 10 seconds to absorb all the beneficial ingredients in the cream.
