皮膚不只是一層表面，它還有「能量場」
最新研究揭示，人體皮膚表面存在一種名為「氧化場」的微弱電場，能幫助肌膚抵禦空氣中的污染物與病原體，維持生理平衡。但讓人意外的是，許多日常使用的乳液與香水，竟可能會干擾這道天然防線。研究發現，一旦氧化場被削弱，皮膚的敏感性與受損風險便大幅上升，意味著我們所謂的「保養」，可能正在悄悄反效果。
乳液或香水的成分，會干擾波動
研究團隊使用超高靈敏的電場感測技術，追蹤塗抹乳液與香水前後，皮膚電性變化的即時反應。結果發現，含有某些香精、防腐劑與合成乳化劑的產品，會使原本穩定的皮膚電場出現下降或異常波動。多次實驗驗證下，這種效應不只明確存在，還可能根據個人膚質與產品配方而放大，顯示這不是偶發，而是一種被長期忽略的干擾途徑。
香水塗抹後 90 秒，能量開始被改變
這張圖模擬的是三個人坐在密閉空間中，只有左右兩人手上塗了香水。研究發現，在香水塗抹後短短 90 秒，兩人周圍的空氣便出現明顯的紅色區塊——代表羥基自由基（OH radicals）大量生成，象徵氧化反應劇烈進行。這說明香水不只是氣味分子，會與人體自然釋放的氣體產生化學反應，進一步改變周圍空氣的化學組成與活性。中間未使用香水者則未出現這樣的反應雲，反差鮮明。
什麼是「皮膚的氧化場」？
這個名詞聽來陌生，但事實上是皮膚長久以來自然演化出的防禦系統，一種由肌膚電荷構成的微場結構，類似動物體表的「靜電保護膜」。它協助調節與外界之間的交互作用，例如避免污染物直接滲透，或減少氧化傷害的傳導。這層場雖然看不見、摸不到，但它的存在，正是皮膚能在環境壓力下保持穩定的原因之一。
如何挑選，不干擾這道「能量」
當市場充斥香氣與功能導向的護膚品，我們的選擇邏輯也許需要轉變。避開含有強烈香精、防腐劑（如 parabens）、PEG 類合成乳化劑的產品，是一種基礎自保。而真正理想的選擇，是那些尊重皮膚自然結構、講求與肌膚共生的成分設計。這不只是護膚，而是一種新的「身體親密關係」：我們不再干預皮膚，而是學習與它同步運作。
New Study: Lotions and Perfumes May Weaken Skin’s “Invisible Shield”
Skin Is More Than a Surface, It Has an “Energy Field”
Recent research has revealed that the surface of human skin hosts a faint electric field called the “oxidative field,” which helps the skin defend against airborne pollutants and pathogens, maintaining physiological balance. Surprisingly, many everyday lotions and perfumes may actually disrupt this natural barrier. Studies show that once the oxidative field is weakened, the skin’s sensitivity and risk of damage rise sharply, meaning our usual notion of “skincare” might quietly be doing the opposite.
Ingredients in lotions and perfumes interfere with these fluctuations
Using ultra-sensitive electric field sensors, researchers tracked the skin’s electrical changes before and after applying lotions and perfumes. They found that products containing certain fragrances, preservatives, and synthetic emulsifiers caused the normally stable skin electric field to drop or show abnormal fluctuations. Multiple experiments confirmed this effect is real and can even be amplified depending on individual skin types and product formulas, indicating it’s not a coincidence but a long-overlooked interference pathway.
Energy begins to change 90 seconds after perfume application
The illustration simulates three people sitting in a closed room, with only the two on the sides applying perfume. Within just 90 seconds of perfume application, a vivid red area appeared around them in the air, indicating a surge of hydroxyl radicals (OH radicals), signaling intense oxidative reactions. This shows perfume is more than scent molecules; it chemically reacts with gases naturally emitted by the body, altering the chemical composition and activity of surrounding air. The person in the middle, who did not apply perfume, showed no such reactive cloud, highlighting the contrast.
What is the “oxidative field” of the skin?
Though the term may sound unfamiliar, it actually refers to a defense system naturally evolved by the skin over time, a microfield structure formed by skin charges, similar to an animal’s electrostatic protective membrane. It helps regulate interactions with the environment, such as preventing pollutants from penetrating directly or reducing the transmission of oxidative damage. Though invisible and intangible, this field’s presence is one of the key reasons skin remains stable under environmental stress.
How to choose products that don’t disrupt this “energy”
In a market flooded with fragrant and function-driven skincare, we may need to rethink our selection logic. Avoiding products with strong fragrances, preservatives like parabens, and PEG-type synthetic emulsifiers is a basic form of self-protection. The ideal choice respects the skin’s natural structure and emphasizes ingredient designs that coexist harmoniously with the skin. This is more than skincare, it’s a new kind of “intimate relationship” with the body: no longer intervening forcibly, but learning to operate in sync with the skin.
