If you want to keep your skin smooth and brightall year round - it is the peeling that will be your key to success. If peeling is for you a new word or you want to learn more about its many benefits, as well as hear interesting facts and get skin care tips - read on!
1. Your skin is renewed naturally. When you are young, the upper stratum corneum changes to about every 25 days. At the age of 30 and above, the process of natural renewal begins to slow down. This can lead to pigmentation, but even if this problem does not concern us yet, we begin to notice that the complexion becomes uneven, and the skin looks duller.
2. There are several types of exfoliation. Peeling can be of different shapes and sizes. Whether you choose manual, chemical or physical exfoliation - each of these ways will help your skin to be more youthful and radiant. However, the frequency of use of each type of peeling is different. Manual and chemical peeling is recommended to be conducted no more than once or twice a week, whereas physical peeling can be done daily.
3. The benefits of peeling are endless. Regular exfoliation is able to make the face skin stunningly beautiful. Peeling can not only remove dead cells from the skin, but also smooth the complexion, remove pigmentation and even smooth out shallow folds and wrinkles. Thanks to the use of the exfoliant, the skin looks like a sparkling health.
4. Choose a peeling agent with caution. Some exfoliants contain granules with uneven, coarse edges that can damage your skin. Use a peeling, the granules of which have a rounded shape.
5. Try chemical peeling. The use of products based on glycolic acid is an excellent way to remove an unnecessary layer of skin without the use of mechanical action.
6. Waxing goes into the account. Using wax to epilate certain areas on your face also removes the horny layer of the skin, cleaning it and making it vulnerable for a while. Therefore, never combine waxing with exfoliation to avoid unnecessary trauma to the skin and discomfort.
7. Carry out the peeling procedure in the morning. Since skin regeneration occurs most intensively at night, use the exfoliant in the morning - this will remove the largest number of dead cells and achieve maximum effect.
8. Be careful. Do not rub the skin of the face too much during use of the scrub or use a deliberately "sparing" exfoliant. Excessively intense friction carries a lot of damage: traumatizes the skin, makes it sensitive, and also damages small vessels located close to the surface of the face.
9. The same applies to owners of oily / problem skin. People with oily or acne-prone skin sometimes mistakenly believe that intensive use of the exfoliant contributes to a quicker solution of the problem of bringing the skin to a worthy appearance. At the same time, their actions have quite the opposite effect.
Frequent use of scrub leads to an expansionpores and the development of more skin oils, which only exacerbates the problem. Owners of fatty / problematic skin type should use peeling in exactly the same way as people with other types of skin: not more often than once or twice a week.
10. Do not forget to remove makeup. It is very important to remember that before the procedure of exfoliation, make-up should be removed and the skin of the face thoroughly cleaned. If you do not, the effect of using the exfoliant will be much less pronounced.
We hope that these tips will be useful to you and will help on the way to acquiring a healthy, beautiful and radiant skin!
