The first step to taking care of your skin is preventing damage. Sun, wind,
pollutants, and simply aging can degrade the condition of your skin. Common
complaints include dry and itchy skin, wrinkles, sagging, color changes, and age
spots. There are steps that you can take to keep you skin looking and feeling
its best.
Exercise, rest, and good nutrition lay the foundation for beautiful, healthy
skin, inside and out. A proper diet is not only good for your overall health, it
also helps to ensure that your skin will receive all of the vitamins, minerals,
and nutrients that it needs to maintain and repair cells. Drinking purified
water is another good way to keep your skin healthy. Water helps to hydrate the
skin and move waste and nutrients through the system. It is very effective
mixing a teaspoon or capful of Organic Apple Cider Vinegar in with your water.
Do not drink Tap Water.
The most important way to care for your skin is to protect it from the damaging
rays of the sun. Ultraviolet radiation damages the skin and can lead to
wrinkles, premature aging, age spots, and cancer. Take extra precautions to make
sure your skin is not exposed to the sun’s rays.
Dry skin is very common, especially with age. Older skin has fewer sweat and oil
glands than younger skin. Dry skin may be caused by frequent baths, certain
cosmetics or medications. But whatever the cause, there are ways to alleviate
the itchiness associated with it.
3 Tips for Skin Care :
A skin care routine does not have to be elaborate in order to be effective. But
you should develop some kind of skin care routine based on your skin type, daily
activities, and nutritional needs so that you can be sure you are taking the
very best care of your skin. Following a daily skin care regime will also allow
you to more closely evaluate your skin for abnormalities. Here's a simple
routine that you can adapt to fit your needs:
1. Cleanse: Wash your skin thoroughly on a daily basis to remove the
dirt, debris, pollutants, and perspiration that accumulates on a daily basis. If
you have dry or sensitive skin, use only warm water to wash your skin and use a
mild natural cleanser every few days like the product Oxy-Skin. If you have
normal or oily skin, be sure to wash with a gentle cleanser on a daily basis. Be
sure to brush your teeth before washing your face, as toothpaste residue can
irritate sensitive facial skin.
2. Moisturize: Unless your skin is very oily, you will want to use a
moisturizer everyday to keep your skin hydrated and healthy. Your skin needs
moisturizer all year long as both the indoor winter heat, and summer sun can be
equally damaging to your skin. The most advanced product is “Parfait Visage”
which is used for the face.
3. Protect: Use a natural sunscreen when possible, regardless of whether
or not you plan on spending much time in the sun. The sun's rays are very
damaging and if you get in the habit of applying sunscreen everyday, you will
never be left without protection. The suns most beneficial rays occur at sunrise
and sunset.
