In the selection of cotton, the main to its touch and elasticity as the primary factor to determine. Feel should have a soft touch, and full of ductility. As the cotton-padded light sensitive, including the store's lights are likely to damage its quality,so when buying a cotton pad, if it is hanging in a row of display, do not take the first one, but should take its back, because the back of the cotton will not enjoy a lot of "sunbathing". Another one of the most practical way to identify the cotton pad is folded, rub each other rub. If you do not rub a few off on the cotton crumbs, of course, can not be selected.
Feel
Do not stimulate the skin because of direct contact with the skin material, material selection on the day
However, the best cotton, soft touch to feel comfortable; at the same time to avoid the addition of any chemical substances, such as fluorescent agents. Size to smoothly pick up the way the cotton pad,is the index finger and ring finger to cover the middle finger in the cotton pad, this action is most convenient to control the strength and direction, each finger length is different to pick for their own, easy to pick up like. Thickness should not be too moderate because of fear of wasting care products and the use of thin cotton pad. Used for skin care of cotton at least 3 cm thickness is enough,So that when wiping the amount of make-up water absorption is sufficient, not only the skin feel very comfortable, it will not be repeated friction caused by stimulation of the skin, such as cotton pad thickness is insufficient, can be two or more pieces combined use. Density enough to make up the density of cotton is strong enough to wipe the skin will not rupture, resulting in cotton falling or residue. Before you can use hand gently pull the cotton pad test, it is easy to pull the broken cotton that density is not enough.
taste
Because it is a direct contact with the facial skin, so to avoid any chemical additions, such as bleach, because of water, the cotton chemical residues in fear of dissolution.Natural cotton should be a hint of cotton taste, if there is any flavor should stop using. Conditions can be at home to make a small experiment, with a lighter to a cotton pad lit, then blow out, add chemicals, the smell of cotton is distributed out of the pungent, high-quality cotton should be natural plant ash taste.
Visual inspection
Too thin make-up cotton, wipe when the make-up water storage capacity is not enough, the skin is very uncomfortable touch, excessive friction on the skin cause irritation, cotton thickness is insufficient, the two can be used in combination.Looks relatively thin cotton pad, wipe may break, polished the whole face cotton, will be quite embarrassed. Selection, the hand gently pull test, easy to pull the broken cotton that density is not enough.
Mistakes
Has been around the cotton pad and the release of water to determine the quality of cotton is unscientific. Many people think that poor quality absorbent cotton is too absorbent, resulting in a lot of make-up water is "eaten" and feel wasted. The real high-quality cotton take into account the good water absorption and release of water. Can be about 2ML make-up water poured on the cotton pad, to see whether the make-up water leakage, in order to test the absorbent cotton; and then make-up water in the cotton out, see how much water can be released, Out of the make-up water closer to the beginning of the absorption of water, indicating that the water-absorbent cotton is very good, it means that make-up water will not be too much cotton, "eaten" and waste.
