Serious Skin Care Can Be Seriously Complicated!
Anyone looking for serious skin care need not go far-merely type in "skin care" into a search engine and watch how many millions of results come up! The market is saturated with skin care lotions, creams, moisturizers, mud masks, emollients, and cleansers. You name it-there is sure to be a skin care solution available to you 24 hours per day at some shopping super center just down the street. But when you get to that aisle filled with the skin care treatments and products-what then!?!?
The type of skin care product you need will largely depend on the type of skin you have. There are four basic types:
- Oily skin
- Dry skin
- Combination skin
- Sensitive
People with oily skin tend to appear dull, thick, shiny, or even ill-colored. It is common for there to be acne outbreaks associated with oily skin. Skin care cleansers made with a mild astringent and antibacterial agent are recommended to remove the excess oil and kill the bacteria responsible for causing the blemishes and irritations associated with acne.
If you are suffering from dryness, then you are looking to buy skin care products like moisturizers and lotions that contain emollients. This simple skin care solution will help you retain moisture and avoid the dryness and itchiness. There are a number of factors that may be contributing to a dry skin problem, such as:
- Low-humidity environment-dry skin lotions and moisturizers are often needed in the winter because the furnace blows around hot, dry air that robs the environment of moisture
- Medication-many medications are known to cause dehydration but skin care remedies will only mask this problem and the lack of water will cause other medical problems with the kidneys and other organs in the body. So, if dry skin problems appear after starting to use a new medication, consult with your physician immediately
- Chlorinated water-many swimmers use dry skin care products to compensate for the effects of chlorine during swimming. Like most chemicals, chlorine causes the skin to dry out and sometimes may lead to a rash or other skin irritation
Combination skin means that you will have some areas that are dry and others that will be oily. During puberty, it is common to need an oily skin care product for the face and a dry skin care product for the body. Skin care supplies for the oiliness will use natural astringents and bactericides to control the excess oil and acne that may form on the face. Plus, you will need a skin care lotion for the body to control the flakes, itchiness, and other problems associated with dryness.
Organic skin care products made with essential oils are really the best for all skin types, especially problems with sensitivity. The essential oils help to regenerate the skin from within but are not considered to be toxic or foreign like many of the synthesized ingredients found in some make up or beauty products. So matter the type, serious skin care products are made with essential oils because they are rich in essential fatty acids and antioxidants so they can repair from within while removing toxins in the process.
