There are two significant advantages to owners of dry skin: the skin of the small pores, plus it is particularly delicate. Proper care will make this type of skin healthy and soft pink.
But any tiny error in the care of quickly worsen the condition of the skin: desquamation, contraction may visually look like "battered" and luster is lost. And to get rid of a variety of discomfort, constantly having to use the cream.
A little about the reasons for the formation of dry skin
In this type of skin disrupted the sebaceous glands - sebum is produced less than normal. As a result: a protective layer of the epidermis is very thin, the stratum corneum is loosened due to the lack of fat and the skin loses moisture quickly enough.
Another drawback of sebum - one of the main causes of wrinkles is already 20 years old. However, with age, it is normal, when the sebaceous glands do not work as actively as before. That is, as you understand, at a mature age the skin becomes more dry.
The main mistakes in the care of dry skin
First mistake: the use of low-fat creams
Many people believe that low-fat and low-fat cream to moisturize the skin well and quickly absorbed. However, for a dry type of skin moisture - insufficient. Moreover, we have even more to hurt her, because low-fat cream very quickly evaporate, and the skin does not have time to absorb the moisture. It is a modest amount of fat and emulsifier - is what binds the fat and water in the cream. Now the fun part: as soon as the water evaporates from the low-fat cream on the face, emulsifier begins to pick up from the inside! That's how we desiccate the skin such creams.
So the cosmetics rich in fat - this is what is necessary primarily for dry skin. Small life hacking: check on the fat content of the cream can be, if you add it a little into a glass of warm water and stir, if Cream dissolves - it bold, what we need, if the water is turbid - the average fat content is not suitable he us.
Second mistake: often take a shower
If the soul of every day use soap or gel, the constant shelling and the contraction we are guaranteed. Active cleaning agents in them not only to eliminate the dirt, but also from the sebum.
So that you should not spend much time in the shower, and the usual gels and soap must be replaced by syndet - it is a synthetic soap, which is closer to the natural pH value of the skin. It has a lot of fatty compounds that make the skin soft and syndet has no effect on the acid mantle of the skin.
As for the person, there is the best option - Cleansing Oil.
The third mistake: going to the pool
Yes, the pool and make the correct posture, and get rid of excess fat, the figure would be enviable. In general, the pool was always better fitness centers. But alas, on dry skin it affects negatively, say "thank you" for this chlorinated water. Chlorine completely kills all the protective substances that keep the epidermis in a normal state.
Unfortunately, not more than 1 time per week and swim for no longer than 30 minutes. Moreover, in the shower after the pool should be thoroughly wash away with himself chlorinated water and smear the fat body moisturizer.
The fourth mistake: sunbathing
Dermatologists and cosmetologists in one voice say, that the most harmful factor that leads to age the skin to dry out - it is the sun, particularly UVB and UVA-rays. Ultraviolet light penetrates deep into the skin and destroys the collagen fibers that eventually dry up and simply do not bind moisture. Yet because of the sun in the skin at the cellular level, the formation of free radicals which destroy enzymes and proteins in the skin, bad influence on cell division. It is proved that free radicals can affect the skin cells even at the genetic level, and it's not funny!
Therefore, the sun does not come out until then, until smazhem UV-agent. The best option - a nourishing cream with UV protection (protective factor of at least 8 on ordinary days, no less than 18 - if you are going to the beach).
Fifth error: frequent use of peeling
To remove the skin shelushek many use gentle peeling (exfoliating effect of the cream). So do not be, because the protective film on the face becomes even thinner and the skin - drier than usual. It is fraught with the formation of eczema.
Peeling for dry skin is contraindicated. Maximum - cleaning of the skin on the Japanese recipe: warm water mix half a cup of rice bran to education creamy, dense layer is then put on the face, hold 10 minutes and washed off with warm water with light massage movements.
The rice bran rich in vitamins B and E, they have dry skin urgently needed.
