In my Blogs, Suffering from Premature Skin Aging Series, Part 1 and Part 2, we discussed the major damage on the skin that the sun, UV tanning beds and HEV digital blue light exposure, and what lifestyles contribute to premature skin aging.
In Part 3, we’ll discuss another major factor that leads to premature skin aging: Skin Dryness & Dehydration!
Skin Facts: Did You Know that our skin:
- Consists of 64% water approximately, and that our skin is our largest organ in our body?
- Functions as a barrier to external toxins, chemicals and pathogens, and if dehydrated, such environmental pollutants and pathogens enter our body?
Dry Skin & Premature Skin Aging Problems: Dry and dehydrated skin leads to premature skin aging because:
- It leads to visible lines, wrinkles, sun spots, dark spots, melasma, hyperpigmentation and leather textured skin (premature skin aging).
- Lack of moisture in your skin will make your skin to lose its brightness, smoothness and youthful look.
- Your skin will crack & lose its softness, which may lead to increased risk of skin and body infections.
The Recommendations by Dr. Mel Glamor, PhD:
- Drink plenty of water daily as recommended by the American medical Association
- In the morning: Use a concentrated Hyaluronic Acid serum, like our Ultimate Plumping Serum, and a day moisturizer sunscreen SPF 40 broad spectrum, like our Revitalizing Cream Sunscreen SPF 40.
- At Night: Use a hydrating, concentrated Vitamin C & Vitamin E serum, like our 5-star rated Luxe Concentrate Serum, and finish with a Retinoid based night moisturizer like our Tightening Night Cream.
See a Dermatologist: Periodically visit a Dermatologist, MD for a regular skin checkup...
