Start Managing Your Skin Care With These Ideas
I touched my daughter's forehead last night and realized it was so soft and smooth. I remember having skin like that, but over time I've lost moisture and elasticity. If this is happening to you as well, use the below tips and tricks to help your skin regain it's youthful resiliency.
People who suffer from oily skin should follow a strict skin care regime. Cleanse twice daily with a cleanser that is designed specifically for oily skin. It will remove dirt from the pores and get rid of excess oil build-up. Use a toner to remove any dirt remaining, and finally don't forget to use a light moisturizer that will help to balance the skin.
The suns rays are at their highest from 10am to 2pm. Avoid direct sun exposure during these hours, by wearing a sunscreen or protective clothing. The harmful rays from the sun will prematurely age your skin and make you appear older than you actually are. Reversing these affects can be difficult to do later.
Chapped lips can be a sign that you aren't getting enough water. It might take a few days of increased water intake to see improvement. Avoid going overboard with lip balm -- too much can actually irritate your lips, making the problem worse. Some ingredients in lipsticks can be allergens, another source of chapped lips. You may see improvement using a different brand.
If you use bath oils, it is best to apply them only after you have rinsed your skin and gently towel-dried it. Using oils in the bath water may trap cleansing ingredients on the surface of your skin, causing dehydration and irritation. By waiting until you are clean and dry, you can ensure that your skin is better prepared to absorb the nourishing properties of the oil.
To avoid dry facial skin, you should not use bar soaps as a cleanser. While bar soaps are okay for the body, they tend to strip essential oils from the face leaving it tight and dry. Opt for gentle facial cleansers that are made specifically for this sensitive facial skin.
Cleaning your face every morning and every evening will help keep your face acne free. In the evening you will be washing of all the dirt that has accumulated from the day, and in the morning you will be removing any oil on your face. Make sure you use a soap that does not dry out your face or make it too oily.
If you want to shield your skin from harmful pollutants that clog our air, add products full of antioxidants into your daily regimen. Look for lotions that utilize the power of green tea, coffeeberry or pomegranate. These ingredients protect against the negative effects that pollution and sun exposure have on our skin.
After using all of these methods my skin should return to being soft, beautiful, and taut. Hopefully, yours will too, so let's set up our own skin care regimens and give it a go! The only way to keep aging at bay is to go the extra mile to take good care of your skin!
