Dry skin of face

Now it is rare to find a man with perfect skin. Factors such as sun, wind, indoor air conditioners, improper nutrition have a negative impact on the condition of our skin. But proper skin care will give good results.

Dry face skin is present in young girls, and with age this problem affects most women. Due to dehydration of the body and reduction of the secreted amount of sebum, the skin becomes thin and dry.

What if the facial skin is dry?

Owners of dry skin need special care for her. Also, you should follow some rules, in order not to exacerbate the dry skin condition.

1. It is forbidden to take sunbaths without the use of products containing ultraviolet protection. For everyday use, a cream with a protective factor of at least 8, and for rest on the beach or in the mountains, should be applied with a protective factor of 18 to 20. And in general, the excess of sun bathing adversely affects the skin.
2. After swimming in the pool, you need to wash off the chlorine residues contained in the water filling the pool. And then lubricate the skin with a nourishing moisturizer. It is recommended to limit the visit to the pool to once a week, and to swim in it for no more than half an hour.
3. To care for dry skin, fatty creams should be used. It may be somewhat easier for some to use non-fat creams, as they are quickly absorbed. But for owners of dry skin, such a remedy will not be enough, and application can only aggravate the problem.
4. Do not apply face peeling too often, because it destroys the natural protective film on the skin. The use of peeling to ladies with dry skin can even do harm, as it can cause redness or eczema.
5. Frequent showering negatively affects the dry skin condition. Soap and shower gels overdry the skin, so instead of them it is better to use syndet (synthetic soap). It contains fatty substances and does not affect the acidity of the skin.

Care for dry skin

Proper nutrition and a sound healthy sleep should be an integral part of your life plan. It is proved that sleep has a beneficial effect on the skin condition. During sleep, skin cells resume twice as fast. The duration of sleep should be at least 7 - 8 hours.

To avoid dehydration of the skin, it is necessary to drink more water. In the diet should predominate fresh vegetables, fruits, nuts and cereals. Soft skin will provide products with a high sulfur content:

• eggs;
• bow;
• garlic.

It is necessary to exclude the use of fried foods, carbonated, alcoholic beverages and caffeine.

Very dry face skin should be cleaned twice a day. In the morning just wash your face with warm water, and in the evening you should use milk or butter. It is recommended to use olive or almond oil for dry skin of the face. It is necessary to put the product on the skin, get wet with a dry napkin or cotton pad, and then rinse with water. Wipe your face carefully with a towel.

Face cream for dry skin must be fat. And do not forget that you need to apply the cream not only in the morning, but also in the evening. It is very good, if it is not one cream, because for night use it should be more nutritious.

To prepare a mask for very dry facial skin, it is required to mix the flesh of melon, plum pulp and vegetable oil in equal proportions. Apply the mixture on the face for 15 - 20 minutes, after washing off warm and finish washing with cold water.
