Kicking Dry Skin And Wrinkles To The Curb – 7 Steps To Looking Younger And Radiant
The skin is the largest organ of the body. It is also one of the most important as it serves as a protective covering for the internal organs inside the body. Plus, the skin is the first thing which others notice. Anyone with a flawless and radiant skin is usually considered more attractive than others & gets more attention. So now you’ll be wondering how can I get a skin so beautiful to put others in awe.
Over the years, dermatologists and expert beauticians have conducted in-depth research and study on the human skin in order to understand what elements are needed to maintain its beauty. Dry skin is a prevalent issue that causes early wrinkling of the skin, unpleasant texture of the skin, and enhances the process of aging. Different solutions have been found to fix the dry skin and we are presenting a few that you can easily try out at home.
1. Soak It In
Top dermatologists across the nation advise soaking in a bathtub for usually 20 to 30 minutes. This form of therapy is quite useful and its ideal to stay soaked in the tub until the skin on the fingers starts to wrinkle. This allows ample time for the skin to absorb the water and lock moisture into the dermis to ensure that the skin remains supple, pliable, and elastic. This also allows the skin to get rid of dirt embedded in the epidermal layer, which is the outer layer of the skin.
2. Staying Hydrated
This is an underrated method of keeping the skin radiant. Surprisingly, water not only hydrates us – it also takes care of harmful toxins in our body. Research has shown that people who drink up to 8 glasses of water a day tend to have more beautiful skin – free of spots and dryness than people who do not consume an adequate amount of water. No wonder beauticians and dermatologists advise their clients and patients to drink ample amount of water to stay hydrated.
3. Beware Of Beauty Creams
People with naturally dry skin are advised to use thicker creams rich in oils and natural products as opposed to lotions which are thinner and evaporate quickly. Lotions and beauty creams are not really known to lock in the moisture which is already present in the skin. When picking a moisturizer or any beauty product to use, it is pertinent that you consider vital facts like the type of your skin and the current weather conditions. Remember, not every beauty product in the market is made for you.
4. Remember To Exfoliate
This is the process that involves the removal of dead skin cells from the outermost part of the skin layer. Exfoliation can be done by mechanical or chemical methods. The mechanical method involves physically scrubbing the skin surface with an abrasive tool. There are various methods used to achieve this aim and they include crepe paper, microfiber cloths, micro-bead facial scrubs, and more. A pumice stone or sponge can also be used to get rid of the dead cells. Chemical method of exfoliating can be done by buying over-the-counter creams that contain exfoliating chemicals like Salicylic acid and Glycolic acid. Exfoliating helps open up the skin pores and allows other skin products to penetrate better. So make sure you exfoliate at least once a month.
5. Get Oily
Dry skin means you can hop on the flaxseed oil and fish oil bandwagon. Being high in miraculous Omega-3’s, these oils keep the skin very flexible. Fish oil and flaxseed oil supplements can also help improve skin’s appearance and reduce the pain of stiff, sore joints. There are lots of supplements out there that provide the requisite Omega-3 needed which you can apply on your skin.
6. Take That Beauty Nap
The skin is thinnest around the eye, and as such, wrinkling starts there. It is therefore very essential to get enough sleep so as to avoid the baggy eyes (some have luggage, lol). Plus, people notice your eyes first and they are constantly going to keep looking at them while communicating with you so in order to make a good impression, it is important to keep the skin under your eyes looking fresh by getting enough beauty sleep – at least 6 hours a night.
7. Sunlight Is Your Friend
Just make sure to avoid sunlight between 11 am and 3 pm. Sunlight has ultraviolet rays (UVA and UVB) that can damage the skin. In case you do not apply a proper sunscreen, ultraviolet rays can cause wrinkles and spots to the skin. It is therefore important to use broad-spectrum sunscreen on days when sunlight cannot be avoided to prevent sunburn. Plus, the human body needs the vitamins we can only get from the sun so sunlight is not all bad.
