The world is awash with skincare tips and advice, so what ones should you take on board and try for yourself? The answer is the most helpful ones. In this article, we have distilled 5 of the most helpful skincare tips. Focus on these for better skin quality in the short and long term.
Use SPF
SPF is the factor used to determine the strength of sunscreen. A low SPF allows more UV radiation into the skin than a high one. Remember to use an appropriate SPF to protect your skin from harmful UV radiation. The sun can damage the skin and cause it to age faster.
Whether it’s summer or winter, indoors or outdoors, you need to use SPF to protect your skin quality long term. If you’re wondering why you need to wear SPF when you are indoors, you should know that the blue light from screens can also contain UV light that harms the skin.
Overnight Moisturizer
Do you wake up in the morning with dry skin that feels tight? Chances are you didn’t use an overnight moisturizer. Instead, you need to moisturize in the morning, but you miss out on collagen production throughout the night. A quality overnight moisturizer can boost production.
When you use a rejuvenating night cream you stimulate collagen production and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. As you age, your skin becomes less elastic and softer, but using a rejuvenating night cream regularly, keeps your skin looking younger for longer.
Natural Skin Products
When was the last time you checked the ingredients on your skin care products? If it hasn’t been for some time, you might want to take a look to find out if you are using synthetic or natural skincare products. Synthetic products have ingredients that are unfamiliar and made in a lab.
You might be wondering why synthetic products are harmful to the skin and body. Not only can they cause irritation and itching, but they create toxicity in the body that must be processed. Using natural products with familiar ingredients ensures the body can process the ingredients.
Stress Reduction
When we get stressed, the brain releases cortisol and adrenaline to support the fight-or-flight response. These days, there is plenty of stress in the world and in everyday life, we may not even notice when we are stressed. The brain chemicals can cause the skin to age prematurely.
One of the best ways to improve your skin quality is to reduce your life stress, but that is easier said than done. Start by making a list of all the stressors you have in your life, then prioritize them. Eliminate stress by eliminating situations; you could also practice some mindfulness.
Pat Dry Skin
The tendency is to rub the towel over your face when you leave the shower, but rubbing the sensitive skin on your face can lead to irritation and loss of elasticity over time. Instead, pat your skin dry with a soft towel to protect the integrity of the skin and help it to stay young for longer.
