If you often have to "be friends" with the computer at night, remember the following skin protection tips.

Acne and wrinkled skin are not only the result of sunlight, polluted environment or poor diet, but also due to unhealthy working habits.

For busy people, being in contact with the computer for many hours every night is unavoidable, which leads to increasingly ugly skin. Therefore, if you do not want your appearance to turn into an old lady before reaching the age of 30, then keep in mind the following skin protection tips!

Supplement foods rich in vitamins A and C

Under the influence of radiation from computers, your skin will be at risk of aging at a dizzying speed. If you do not have a reasonable diet to protect your skin from the inside, you will see acne and wrinkles appear on your face.

By adding foods rich in vitamins A and C such as sweet potatoes, carrots, watermelon, papaya, oranges, strawberries, mangoes, avocados, etc., you can prevent the negative effects of computer radiation. These are two types of vitamins that are considered to have the ability to effectively fight aging, restore and improve skin diseases.

Drink plenty of water

Another negative impact that cannot be ignored from computer radiation is causing dry skin. When the skin is dry, the sebaceous glands will increase their activity, making your face shiny due to the excess oil secretion exceeding the allowed level.

This is also one of the leading causes of acne and hidden acne on the face. Therefore, do not forget to drink enough 2 liters of water every day to create an invisible protective layer for the skin against the harmful effects of the computer.

Avoid touching your face while using the computer

Studies have shown that computer keyboards contain hundreds of times more bacteria than toilets, especially bacteria that cause skin diseases.

We girls often have the habit of touching our faces and picking at pimples while using the computer, not knowing that this is an extremely dangerous habit for our skin health.

The reason is because this habit unintentionally creates conditions for nasty bacteria to come into contact and cause diseases on the face such as acne, pimples, blackheads... Therefore, try to limit touching your face as much as possible!

Wash your face after using the computer.

To protect your skin from acne, never forget to wash your face after using the computer. While using the computer, it will attract dust and bacteria, causing your skin to be exposed to them in the air that are difficult to detect with the naked eye.

If you rush to bed right after using the computer without washing your face, they will have time all night long to penetrate deep into the epidermis, creating swollen, inflamed pimples.

Washing your face can reduce up to 70% of the effects of radiation, dust and bacteria caused by computers. So, don’t forget to do this before going to bed!

Apply moisturizer while using the computer

You can create a temporary protective barrier for your skin while using the computer by applying a thin layer of moisturizer to your face and neck. This moisturizer will increase your skin's resistance, limit the absorption of radiation, and help nourish your skin.

With such effects, applying a layer of moisturizer will indirectly help you improve the 'hidden' skin aging that occurs every minute, every hour when using the computer all night.
