Great Skin Care Tips For Women

Skin is the first barrier against daily aggressions caused by environmental factors and pollution. For this reason, it's crucial to pay attention to any change that may affect your skin. I know that you heard about many types of skin care products, but do you know what your skin really needs? 

Dry skin, unaesthetic cleavage, wrinkles- these are the nightmares of any woman who knows that a beautiful skin denotes health. A sexy outfit loses its charm on a dry skin, exposed excessively to dust, pollution and ultraviolet rays. Hydration is a must. If you don't drink enough water, having a poor diet and insufficient sleep, the skin loses its elasticity, and firmness, developing wrinkles. 

In time, glands that secrete natural hydrating oils tend to be less effective, reducing the capacity of skin to retain water. Even the process of cell renewal tends to become slower, making the skin surface to become drier. An excessively dry skin can be caused by exposure to UVA and UVB, cold, wind or less fine cosmetic products. 

Cleaning the skin is the first essential step when it comes about daily skin care. Cleaning the face two or three times per day is recommended for normal skin. If your skin is greasy, then clean it 4-5 times per day. If you have dry skin it is better to avoid washing your skin too often; also, you will need to use a special lotion for dry skin. 

There are several alternatives to face soaps, which are milder with your skin. You may choose between creams, body lotions, tonic lotions, gels and liquids. They are all made from a mixture of oils, wax and water, conceived especially to match certain types of skin. A swab of cotton soaked in milk has great effects. 

Face masks are very important in maintaining a healthy skin. You can use hydrating masks bought from the cosmetic stores or you can opt for home made face masks. Combine egg yolk with honey, cream, kiwi or banana and you'll get a nutritional face mask, which will make your skin to look lighter. Also, cosmetic clay can be used successfully. 

When we are 20 years old and the skin is young, the collagen fibers provide elasticity and flexibility to our skin. As the years pass, we should care more about our body, in order to have a fresh skin; therefore, it's good to know which the main factors responsible for aging are. 

To avoid skin aging, it's necessary to pay special attention to its needs. The first step consists cleaning your skin correctly every night, even if you hadn't used makeup. This stage is mandatory at any age, regardless of the type of skin because we live in a polluted atmosphere, and our skin is affected daily by impurities. Against free radicals it is recommended to use creams that neutralize the harmful effect. 

After we exceed the age of 28 - 30, we must pay more attention to our skin. Apply a facial peeling once a week and start using a moisturizing cream for night. The peeling stimulates the production of new cells, restoring your skin brightness. At the age of 30, the wrinkles are more obvious, especially around the eyes; use a special lotion for this area. 

The beauty sleep is not a myth. Resting is very important for your overall appearance and especially for your skin. Your skin will look fresh and rested if you sleep 8 hours every day. Try not to stay up late in front of the computer or TV
