INTRODUCTION:
Of all the beautiful things in
the world, we believe that nothing quite compares to a healthy and glowing
face. Everyone wants to have radiant and lustrous skin but few get the results
they want, without taking extra time to find out the right answers. Skin is
among the most essential things that you need to look after. People with florid
skin look better, younger and happier. No matter what your skin type is, there
are simple things that you can do to achieve and maintain good looking skin. Don't
waste your time trying products or tips you've seen and heard about that don't
work. Here's the scoop on what really works when it comes to having fresh skin.
Skin is your body's largest
organ. It performs many important functions that include protecting your
internal organs from the environment and regulating body temperature. If
you don't take care of it, skin conditions such as acne, pimples and rashes can
result. But don't worry - they're usually just temporary! Taking care of your
skin doesn't really mean much if you don't have the right information on what
to do. We've listed some helpful tips that can help you take care of your
skin the right way.
TYPES
AND STRUCTURE OF SKIN:
Normal skin, dry skin and oily
skin are three different types of skin that need different treatments. Dry skin
is caused by a lack of sebum. So, if you want to treat dryness and maintain
clear skin, incorporate more moisturizer in to your daily routine. Oily skin
has a relatively large amount of sebum than dry skin and often produces black heads.
For oily skin care, look for products that balance the moisture levels of your
face, followed by an oil cleansing mask to help reduce inflammation and boost cell
turn over in problem areas.
Skin is made up of three layers: the
outermost layer (epidermis) is built from dead skin cells that have shed and replaced.
The second layer (dermis) has no pigment and has lost many of its collagen
fibers. The third layer (hypodermis) contains fat cells, blood vessels and
nerves. Dry skin generally has a thick layer below the epidermis. Skin protects
the body from bacteria and other contaminants as well as from dehydration through
sweating. Your skin can also act as a barrier to minimize diseases when the air
around you becomes contaminated via rain, wind or dust.
FACTORS
DESTROYING THE SKIN:
Have you noticed that your skin
is not as soft, fresh or healthy as it used to be? Do you ever feel concerned
about the damage that elements and air can have on the quality of your skin? Because
of factors ranging from damage by sunlight and air pollution to skin care
products (that contain potentially harmful ingredients) millions of people worldwide
have skin conditions, from acne to eczema to more serious disorders like
melanoma. Our sun is an enormous mass of pure energy, providing us with light
and warmth. Sunlight is one of nature's biggest and best sources of energy. But
it can also be one of its deadliest -- incredibly powerful UV rays containing
intensified radiation can wreak havoc on your skin, especially if you aren't
careful. Skin aging can reduce its ability to repair itself and normal daily
activities can wear down your skin by leaving it more prone to damage. The
causes of these problems are wide ranging and complex but luckily there are
ways to protect your skin and decrease its risk of getting damaged or making
things un-pleasant.
SUGGESTIONS:
Skin health is an important part
of your total well being. To enjoy beautiful and healthy skin, you need to keep
it hydrated. Always keeping skin safe is the first thing that everybody should
do to keep their skin healthy. If you rub your body with some soaps having
perfumes, it will destroy the oils on your body and make the skin dry. So you
should choose a soap with no strong smell when you clean your body. You can use
a moisturizer after taking bath or showering to keep your skin soft and
healthy. You can use a gentle soap for bathing because some soaps may be too
harsh for your sensitive skin.
Care for your skin by applying a
moisturizing non-scratch toner, tea tree oil and aloe vera. It will help you to
get fair color. You should avoid hot bath or steam room, as this can be drying
for the skin. You should use a gentle cleanser with natural and moisturizing
ingredients such as olive oil or jojoba seed oil after bathing. For dry skin, use jojoba oil or your favorite
moisturizer. Here are some tips to help keep your skin looking its best:
Bathing:
You should only bathe with water or a mild cleanser. Avoid using soap
which can be drying. You can use your favorite moisturizer after you get out of
the bath or shower.
Exercise:
Get regular exercise to improve blood flow in your body. This will cause
more oxygen and nutrients to reach your skin and give you a healthy glow.

BENEFICIAL
FRUITS AND VEGETABLES:
Fruits and vegetables are
essential for good skin. Fruits rich in vitamin C help reduce the aging and
increase collagen production. Vegetables rich in anti-oxidants such as
carotenoids, lycopene and flavonoids have a positive effect on skin health by
protecting against free radicals, boosting immunity and slowing down the aging.
Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants that
protect against skin irritation. They also contain amino acids which prevent
the loss of skin elasticity. The more fruits and vegetables you eat, the
greater your chances of staying young and healthy. Fruits and vegetables are
foods fit to be consumed every day. Fruits are very beneficial to the skin
because they contain vitamins and minerals that rebuild the skin's cell walls
and strengthen its defenses. Fruits also slow down the aging by keeping your
body healthy. You can get a lot of water at the same time as eating fruits and
vegetables.
