Six Deadly Sins Of SkinCare – Part I
SIN 1. SMOKING
You cannot smoke and expect to counteract the effects it has on your skin with face creams, serums, masks.
Smokers get wrinkles because of the repetitive action of pursing their lips and squinting, and the carbon monoxide from cigarettes reduces the supply of blood and oxygen to the skin, which diminishes its ability to repair and rejuvenate. So the only thing you can and must do is to stop smoking – in a few months your skin will recuperate.
SIN 2. DRINKING ALCOHOL
When you drink alcohol your skin’s capillaries dilate, leaving it blotchy. Drinking alcohol also dehydrates you and slows cell renewal, leading to a dull complexion and potential long-term damage. The professionals advise to take vitamin C every day, to drink water and eat fruits rich in Vitamin A and Vitamin A – all essential to help the body recover from boozing.
SIN 3. OVER-PLUCKING YOUR EYEBROWS
Eyebrows are vital in balancing your facial features and that’s way over-plucking is like a bad haircut - it makes your features appear harsher and gives you that surprised look. So stay away from the tweezers. You should let the hairs regrow for at least three weeks if not more. After a month of abstinence get your eyebrows professionally reshaped, then you can keep up the maintenance at home.
SIN 4. PARTYING TILL THE BREAK OF DOWN
As anyone who has ever looked in the mirror after just a few hours’ kip can testify that beauty sleep is no myth. After a day defending itself the skin’s energy reverses- nutrients, water, minerals and vitamins are naturally depleted. Skin needs sleep in order to replenish these reverses and look fresh. If you don’t have enough time to sleep a proper skincare is essential. Use night cream rich in vitamins, that’s the only way to keep your skin beautiful and healthy.
SIN 5. TOO MUCH SUN-BATHING
Around 90 % of the skin aging is environmental, so sunscreen is essential. UV light damages the skin. The direct sunlight combined with aging leads to wrinkles, fine lines, crow’s feet, discolorations and coarseness. In other words skin looks tough as old boots. These are many lotions and creams that speed up skin’s renewal process.В
SIN 6. OVERZEALOUS SKIN CARE
Over-cleaning can cause problems and harsh exfoliation can scratch the surface of the skin, which leads to irritation. Harsh astringents that contain alcohol strip the skin of its natural sebum, which will in turn send sebaceous glands into overdrive, creating more oil. Greasy or heavy creams, meanwhile can block pores and exacerbate spots. If your skin is already irritated you should avoid exfoliating your skin as well as excessively perfumed products for at least a week.
