Hasn’t it become a part of your routine to wake-up and to dwell on your crumbling good looks and deteriorating skin every day? As one’s age increases, their skin loses its charm and firmness and turns crispy and dull with fine lines and wrinkles. Apart from age, however, there are many other factors that lurk in the air that are waiting to steal away your skin’s youth and innocence. Â It’s time now to set up your resistive barriers against them, once and for all. Skin rejuvenation becomesÂ
Skin aging begins at 18!
First of all, it’s important to know that as the skin ages, there is a gradual reduction in the amount of hyaluronic acid(HA) which starts around the age of 18-20 years and can be a contributing factor in later years to the loss of skin elasticity and formation of lines and wrinkles. Â
Natural vs. Cosmetic cures
Some might prefer to go for cosmetic cures- like an injection of hyaluronic acid as part of the ‘skin hydration treatment’. This treatment can be used on backs of hands and face to rejuvenate the skin by improving the condition of the dermis and stimulating the production of collagen, elastin and the body`s own hyaluronic acid. It also enhances the body`s defense against free radicals, thereby improving cell function and contributing to a fresh and more youthful skin appearance.
On the other hand, others might opt for comparatively inexpensive facials and the useful aid of natural or herbal remedies. As mentioned above, the skin loses its radiance to age or pollution due to effects of the harmful ultraviolet rays- emitted by the sun or simply due to decreasing attention. Lack of necessary blood circulation, pigmentation due to falling levels of collagen or inelasticity caused by a decrease in the elastin count could be few of the many reasons skins lose their richness and glow.
Therefore, simple tricks could be followed in order to overcome these minor problems that result in drastic changes:
Increase your water consumption
Higher consumption of water– H2O is supposedly the most vital part of our body. It not only provides our cells the necessary oxygen for oxyhemoglobin but also carries blood throughout the body for its supply. Taking that into consideration, there is no doubt to the fact that an increase in the exercise of drinking water can improve blood circulation and thus restore the skin’s glow!
Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize!
Moisturisers, too, can come in handy while adding the necessary ‘bounce’ to your skin. In-situated minerals and creams soften the skin’s texture and much often aid regeneration of fresh, healthier skin cells while disposing of the dead skin cells in the process. While the market offers an avid range of well-developed moisturizers, one can also opt to use lemon juice or yogurt for exfoliation. In fact, Shea and coconut butter, as well, are great moisturizers. They boost natural skin regeneration and improve skin hydration by forming a barrier to the skin alongside reducing wrinkles and roughness of the skin by repairing and hydrating the skin surface.
Natural facials masks
Natural facial masks can be fruitful sources for suppleness and even-tone. Pastes can be made from mixtures of dairy products and citric fruit skins, egg whites, and yogurts, almond or avocado oils with honey or oatmeal in combination with rose, lavender or frankincense oils can be used as facial masks to be left overnight for best results. The natural ingredients not only provide essential vitamins and minerals like vitamins C, P and F to one’s skin but, also aid better blood flow and cell restoration effectively.
Consume more and more fruits!
Consumption of fruits like pumpkins, papaya, oranges or even turmeric powder can proceed to nourish your skin tone, reduce uneven pigmentation, increase blood circulation and restore skin’s former glory.
As to conclude, the times are gone when you had to be worried about your crumbling, peeling and stressed skin. All you need to do is set-up an effective routine- a tiny part of which is completely dedicated to seeking your skin and its requirements so that, oblivion turns to affection and ignorance transforms into care!
