Friendly Skin Care Tips

It is very important to start with clean skin like removing your make-up before going to bed. It makes the rest of your skin-care arsenal more effective. Because dust and dirt coming from the environment we move in, the skin could accumulate barriers that can ruthlessly affect heat regulation and moisture. Try a gentle cleanser that leaves protective oils and moisture behind. Avoid the use of bar soaps for its thickeners are proven to clog pores and cause pimples. Rather, use a product made with alpha-hydroxy acids or AHAs, to exfoliate the dead cells, help plump up your skin, and give a healthy glow. AHAs are known to make the outermost layer of skin stronger and more resistant to irritation. Once skin is cleaned, you can put on an anti-aging serum. The best contain antioxidants (vitamins C and E and green tea) or peptides (amino-acid chains believed to bolster the skin's collagen production).

Moisturizing the Skin

Free radicals can penetrate more easily through dry skin to attack the layers of collagen and elastin. Thus, the skin becomes dry and lifeless leading to sprout of early signs of ageing. Moisturize retention becomes very important to keep the skin amply hydrated. This could be done by applying moisturizers and lotions. In buying one, consider your skin type as compatibility is so vital for the effects to turn out well. The sun can seriously speed up the aging process, causing damage, hyperpigmentation, and cell breakdown. We strongly suggest you look for a lightweight formula that has an SPF of at least 25 so you could be protected from the harmful rays of the sun.
