Our skin is very sensetive and main part of our body thats we all knows but how can we care our skin. There is some main common problem of skin and their sopution.
Dry skin problem
“Dry skin is a manifestation of the breakdown of the normal biochemical processes that occur in the skin to maintain its proper moisture balance,” Shepard says. Harsh cleansing, the environment (humidity, sun, wind, temperature) and physiological changes like aging and disease are at fault.
Winter weather is a particular offender, Shepard notes, due to the change in relative humidity that comes with colder temperatures. “Water is constantly being driven from the deep layers of the skin to the outside environment,” she adds. “This rate is increased when the air is drier or less moist.”
Solution
Use a mild cleanser Sensitive Skin Nourishing Body Wash and apply a lotion or cream to the affected area one or two times a day. Try Vaseline Intensive Rescue Repairing Moisture Fragrance Free Body Lotion.
Frizzy and Split ends problem
Imagine the protective cuticles that sheathe each of your hair strands as flat, layered roof shingles. Frizzy hair and split ends happen when those shingles are lifted, Shepard explains.
What lifts those shingles? Chemicals used in hair color, highlights, perms and relaxers for one, all of which can cause damage to your hair by penetrating the cuticle (those protective shingles) and reshaping its chemistry from within. The sun is also a chemical culprit, breaking down hair proteins just like bleach. Everyday wear and tear from brushing, styling and heat can do additional damage.
Solution
Condition your hair each time you shampoo it, using a rinse-out conditioner, Shepard recommends. Anti-frizz cream applied before blow-drying and heat-styling helps smooth and flatten the cuticle in the same way. Try Nexxus ProMend Leave-In Treatment Crème, specifically targeted for split ends.
Sweat problem
Sweating is a way for our body to keep its cool through the process of evaporative cooling, says Shepard. This process is similar to the effect you experience when rubbing alcohol is applied to the skin.
The body has two types of glands, which are responsible for sweat. Heat and exercise are triggers for the eccrine glands, which are found on almost all parts of the body.
Strong emotions like fear and anxiety are triggers for the apocrine glands, which are found in select regions of the body like the underarm and groin. Because of the occluded nature of the underarm, the sweat from this area tends not to evaporate well and can increase the presence of bacteria that leads to body odor.
Solution
Try Degree Expert Protection with Motionsense, a formula that responds to your body movement and offers more protection the more you move.
Body odor
One of life’s universally pesky problems is body odor. Body odor is caused by bacteria that lives on our skin and feeds on the lipids and amino acids found in our apocrine glands. “There can be tens of millions of bacteria per square centimeter of the underarm with coryneoform bacteria being particularly troublesome,” says Shepard. To address the issue, you need a product that minimizes the growth of bacteria and delivers a long-lasting freshness throughout the day.
Solution
Regularly cleanse your skin and use an antiperspirant-deodorant on a daily basis. Try Degree for Women Expert Protection with MOTIONSENSE technology or, for the men in your life, Degree for Men Adrenaline Series with MOTIONSENSE technology. The products contain ingredients that keep you feeling dry and help eliminate bacteria, keeping you fresh and clean throughout the day by delivering bursts of protection as you move.
Age spot
Age spots occur when the body produces an excess of melanin, which causes the skin to darken in certain places. This usually occurs after the skin has been damaged in some way, Shepard notes, by factors both genetic and environmental. Sun exposure — especially to UVA rays — will exacerbate this pigmentation.
Solution
Stay out of the sun, she cautions. Also, exfoliate regularly and use a moisturizer with sunscreen that’s designed to even skin tone. You may want to try Simple Exfoliating Facial Wipes, which gently lift dead skin cells; they include pro-vitamin B5 and vitamin E along with aloe vera — known to soothe and condition skin. Plus, Simple Nourishing 24HR Day/Night Cream that nourishes thirsty skin and carries on working for up to 24 hours.
Breakouts
Bacteria is also to blame for acne, when it teams up with dead skin cells to clog pores. The trapped bacteria causes inflammation that results in what we see as pimples. “Acne is more prevalent in teenagers,” Shepard says, “but men and women of all ages can get it.”
Solution
To reduce breakouts, wash twice a day with an antiblemish or antibacterial cleanser, followed by a non-comedogenic moisturizer. Shepard also suggests seeing a dermatologist for more serious cases of acne. Give the St. Ives face care product line a try.
Chapped lips
Your lips are susceptible to dryness because the top layer of skin on your lips is thinner than other parts of your body — especially when you’re braving freezing temperatures and winter winds.
Solution
Try Vaseline Lip Therapy to protect and relieve dry and chapped lips, while locking in moisture to help them heel.
