Skinceuticals Skin Care

Don't you deserve to have the best skin possible? Of course you do. I frequently have clients tell me...Barb, I have spent many hours in the sun, is there anything the product line you distribute do for me? My answer is...yes, there is a lot it will do for your skin....but unfortunately, there is no product out there that can completely erase the countless hours soaking in the sun without the SPF. But, with this said...there are excellent preventative measures that you can take that will help you slow down the aging process.

Below are some skin care and rejuvenation tips to ensure that your skin remains healthy, vibrant, and wrinkle-free for longer that will, without a doubt, slow down skin aging.

Our skin starts showing the signs of aging even as early as our 20s. One can expect to start seeing fine lines, uneven skin texture, and dullness. So truly, one needs to start taking care of their skin from early on. You see, what is happening is our body's skin cellular renewal process is beginning to slow down and what this means is that the dead skin cells are as not as easily discarded, plus there are external factors are starting to have a greater impact, leaving our skin slightly duller.

Skin Care Tips For Your 20s

1. Avoid sunlight or Cover-Up

Up to 80 percent of skin aging is directly related to sun exposure. Penetrating UVA rays damage collagen fibers and elastin coils in your skin.

2. If you are a Smoker - Quit- Quit Now

Smoking inhibits oxygen from getting to the outer layer of your skin, which causes premature aging. Additionally, the motion of smoking over a long period of time can cause fine lines around your mouth. This is not an appealing look!

3. Start a daily skin care program

You should cleanse, moisturize and use SPF or SPF equivalent on a daily basis. It is also important to exfoliate 2-3 times a week to promote skin cellular renewal on a regular basis.

Skin Care Treatment - Why Skin Care Products Can Revitalize or Break Your Skin

A beautiful and clear skin reflects how you eat and live. It protects your body from the harsh environment which could damage your tissues.

As you have plenty of choices when it comes to beauty products, it can be a struggle to find the right one. Check the ingredients and choose natural-based products which either use plant or herbal extracts.

Make sure they are free from alcohol. It can make your skin dry and create more lines and wrinkles. If you already have lines and wrinkles, you don't want any more added to them.

If you have allergies, select cosmetic products with hypoallergenic labels. They tend to cause lesser incidence of allergic problems than those without hypoallergenic labels. They are also gentler and safer on your skin than non-hypoallergenic products.

Don't buy any creams that clog your pores. They can clog your pores with more oil or dead skin cells regardless of your skin type. The clotted pores will turn into whiteheads or blackheads. This will promote bacteria growth and inflammation will occur. Eventually, your face will develop acne. So, only choose non-comedogenic skin creams.

Certain products contain salicylic acid which softens the thick and scaly skin. This skin shedding can treat corns, warts, calluses, psoriasis, and acne. Its strength relies on its intended usage. You have to be careful with salicylic acid as too much can hurt your skin. Always check with your doctor first especially if you are pregnant, nursing your baby, or plan to have a baby.

Most women use chemical peels to treat their faces. This facial treatment removes dry and dead skin. It makes your skin look younger and prevents your skin from being oily. If you have acne, chemical peels can help. This beauty method uses a chemical mixture. A majority of them contain natural ingredients which are extracted from fruits. If you want the best results, you should have three chemical peels on alternate months regularly.

However, consult your dermatologist first before you use any skin care product especially if you have severe acne. Never use any abrasive or harsh material on your skin. It can destroy the top layer and expose your body to infections. Try a mild skin care treatment product. They don't hurt the skin.
