The skin is the largest external organ of the body. When you look at a person, you’ll definitely notice first the skin. Having beautiful skin really does matter a lot. With beautiful skin, you look younger and more radiant. Even-though each and everyone is born to have different skin color and texture, with proper skin care, you can definitely achieve radiant, beautiful skin.
For older skin, look for the following ingredients: peptides, vitamin A and derivatives like retinol and other retinoids, Alpha, beta and polyhydroxy acids.
- Exfoliation should be done with extreme caution and only with modern bead exfoliators. Avoid granular scrubs as these tend to damage the skin microscopically, which can lead to slow, insidious and patchy darkening.
- It is advisable to visit a dermatologist at least once a year. There are a lot of nuances in skin colour, texture, smoothness, etc. that we can't see for ourselves. These can be detected by the dermatologist and mild creams/treatments can be recommended.
- Always use a conditioner after you shampoo your hair. It protects your hair and is a better option than oil. Conditioners neutralise electrical charge in the hair shaft and help in detangling. Conditioners also improve shine and to some extent repair minor frays in the hair shaft.Conditioning agents like hydrolized protein or silicons are added to increase manageability and shine in the hair.
