The skin is the largest organ of our body. It fulfills many functions, including protecting us from the external environment, taking part in water and electrolyte management, allowing us to receive stimuli, absorbing some substances through it and thanks to it we synthesize vitamin D3. These are just some of the functions that the skin performs on a daily basis. In addition, we want it to look beautiful, because clean and well-groomed skin is the basis for a beautiful and young appearance.
How to care for your skin?
Nowadays, there are a lot of medicines and cosmetics that are supposed to affect the condition of our skin, not only in order to rejuvenate it, but also to provide the skin with proper hydration and protection. What cosmetics should we look for, what products should we have in our vanity case? About it below!
Products and supplements for beautiful skin:
- First of all, you should stock up on moisturizing creams that properly hydrate the skin of our body, and thus it becomes less tired and more elastic. Creams are especially recommended here, but you can also use special milks, balms or colored and fruity body butters
- Moisturizing should go hand in hand with proper protection of the epidermis and dermis. Most of the good products contain extracts of aloe vera or chasteberry. Glycerin also nourishes and moisturizes the skin
- Vitamins that are worth looking for in body cosmetics are vitamins A and E. They perfectly nourish and rejuvenate the skin of both the whole body and the face. You can also purchase these vitamins as separate dietary supplements and consume them with meals to ensure you are getting the right amounts
- Speaking of body skin care, it is also worth mentioning the specifics that will affect probably the most common female ailments – cellulite and stretch marks. Creams and balms with a soothing and cooling effect, which contain, for example, menthol, will be perfect here
- When protecting the skin, e.g. in the summer, it is worth thinking about creams with appropriate filters protecting against sun rays. We should remember that such creams should be used all year round, although of course in the summer the sun will be the hottest
- In pharmacies you will also find special creams and specifics that will allow you to achieve the effect of rejuvenated skin. Nutrition and regeneration is the basic feature of many creams for women +30 and beyond, but of course you can also find cosmetics for younger people
- Let’s also take care of providing the skin with adequate amounts of B vitamins. We can find them not only in cosmetics, but also in everyday products used to prepare meals. B vitamins that moisturize the skin and prevent blackheads are found in nuts, bananas, eggs and lean meat
