Professional cosmetologists in recent years to clean the face use a special device - a spoon Uno. The metal device is a handle-stick, ending on one side with a "spoon" with one large hole (loop), and the "spoon", located on the other side, has several small holes (sieve). Both parts of the Uno spoon are designed for mechanical face cleaning: the nozzle is designed to remove large pimples, and the sieve - to cleanse skin pores from excess fat, dirt, sweat and eliminate comedones (blackheads). Sometimes the kit may include special nozzles with needles.
How to use the spoon Uno to clean the face?
Although Uno's spoon was conceived as a professional device, many women have learned to perform manipulations to cleanse the skin with its help on their own. In fact, the principle of the operation of the device is quite simple, and to master the rules for using the Uno spoon to clean the face at home is not difficult.
The algorithm for performing the cosmetic procedure is as follows:
- Wash off the face, rinse the skin in the bath or with the help of warm water compresses.
- Put on your hands sterile gloves.
- Treat the face with an antiseptic, for example, lotion or vodka.
- Start cleaning the face with a strainer that removes excess sebum. In this case, the device should be led along massage lines with a slight pressure.
- If any of the skin pores is strongly clogged, a loop is applied. For this, the second side of the spoon is placed so that the problematic formation is in the middle of the hole. A little pressing, perform a slight movement to the side, grabbing the released contents of the pore.
- After cleaning, the face is treated again with a suitable disinfectant for the skin type.
At the end of the procedure, it is desirable to lubricate the skin with a decoction of calendula and make a soothing mask . But to wash after cleaning the face is not recommended for 10-12 hours.
Important! Before starting the procedure for cleaning the skin with a spoon, you should consult a specialist so that he can assess the appropriateness of using the device and show techniques for using the Uno spoon.
Contraindications to the use of a spoon Uno
Despite the fact that every year the number of women using a professional device for self-cleaning face skin increases, cosmetologists still do not recommend a procedure at home. The fact is that it is not always possible to comply with hygiene rules at home, and an inept approach to manipulation can lead to very unpleasant consequences. Also, do not clean your face with the Uno spoon for some skin conditions, including:
- with purulent inflammation;
- with the appearance of herpes;
- with couperose ;
- with damage to the face associated with the formation of wounds;
- for problems with blood vessels.
Also it is undesirable to do the cosmetic procedure (especially yourself!) For girls and women with dry skin, which is especially sensitive. In all these cases, it is better to clean the Uno with a scraping or to apply a traditional peeling to the skin. It will be much safer for the skin.
Attention! If you decide to carry out the cosmetic procedure yourself, we advise you to buy a spoon Uno in a specialized store. The professional tool is made of high-quality stainless steel, which significantly reduces the risk of developing various complications on the face skin.
