Exfoliation tips

Are you suffering from the lizard syndrome? When your skin has endured severe weather conditions and starts to flake and peel. Whether it is extreme heat or extreme cold, the skin, especially on the face, reacts to these weather conditions  in the worst ways.

During the cold months the skin naturally tends to become drier than usual and  produces flakes that makes it look unhealthy. This is because in the winter months there is a lack of moisture in the air. Whereas, after you have spent your vacation sunbathing on that picturesque beach, your skin also damages. In this situation the result is excessive peeling because of the over-consumption of Vitamin D.

The solution for these skin issues is exfoliation! This remedy will make all  those  flakes and dry patches disappear! In other words, the dead cells that have piled up on the skin’s surface would vanish and the result is soft, smooth skin!

Foods to Eat For Healthy, Glowing SkinHealthy, glowing, radiant- adjectives we all want to use when describing our skin. But if you’re like most women, you probably struggle with stubborn skin issues. Never fear! A great complexion is more attainable than you think!

The mantra “you are what you eat” has been used countless times, but when it comes to skin care, this saying is especially true. The secret to beautiful skin may not be in that cream you slather on, or the cleanser you use every night.

Nutrients in certain foods can improve our skin from the inside out. Common complaints among women are the tone, texture, evenness, and clarity of their skin. By eating the right foods you can nix these issues and even combat signs of aging such as wrinkles, thinning skin and  dryness.

Here are some foods you should be incorporating into your regular diet to get the skin you’ve always wanted.  (You really didn’t think that Big Mac from McDonald’s would give you the flawless complexion you’re craving, did you?)

Want Younger Looking Skin? Six Tips to Keep the Years Off

We all want visibly younger skin. And while there’s no easy fix for damage that has already been done, there are a few things you can do to further prevent premature aging.

Don’t use bar soap. 

Switch to a gentle cleanser. Soap dries the skin and strips the skin of all natural oils, which we need. Soap is also a detergent and may contain harsh agents like SLS which may not be gentle on your face. It makes the soap foamy with bubbles that clog up pores.

Don’t wait until bedtime to wash your face.

Wash your face as soon as you come home and follow up with a rich moisturizer. Even if you don’t wear makeup, you need to cleanse your skin of pollution, dust and recycled air from outside.

Wear sunscreen everyday.

Sunscreen is not just for the  summer. Pick up a facial moisturizer with SPF 15 or higher. Choose one with a matte finish so makeup goes over it well. It will protect your skin from premature wrinkling, age spots and a leathery texture.
