Are you struggling with dry patches, dehydration, as well as dullness? Well, just know that you’re not alone! A lot of women have trouble keeping their skin nourished & optimized as they age. Did you know that we tend to produce 1% less collagen each year as we age? This means that in order to bring back the radiance, as well as the needed bounce, it can take some time! Aside from time, you will also need some proper tips, such as the following 8!
Top 8 Skincare Hacks For Women Who Have Dry Skin
1. Drink Water
The beauty starts within, literally! This is why it is crucial & key to drink just enough water every day. Your skin will look a lot more nourished, glowy, as well as hydrated with the right daily intake. Aim for 2 liters/half a gallon of water per day, and you will notice a drastic change in the texture of your skin, your vibrancy, firmness, as well as overall radiance!
PS: Set an alarm on your phone that will remind you to drink water every 2-3 hours. This is great if you’re trying to make this into a routine.
2. The Right Moisturizer
A lot of us tend to use the wrong kind of moisturizer for our skin type. The real issue occurs once you start purchasing different kinds of moisturizers (for day & night-time use). Your skin will need better protection during the day since you are exposed to UV rays and pollution. At night, your skin needs to rest & breathe, so two different kinds is always a good idea. Aim for a water-based cream in the morning, and a thicker & oil-consistency cream at night.
3. Stay Away From Those Steamy Hot Showers
This advice is quite practical, believe it or not. You should stay away from steamy and hot showers (especially during colder months) since they can harm your outer layers & further dry out your skin. Regular showers & exposure to sauna or steam rooms can cause our skin to dry out and become even duller.
4. Your Air Needs Moisture As Well
Do you live in a drier climate? Are you exposed to a lot of Sun, as well as humid air? Our skin can change drastically depending on the season, as well as when we find ourselves in different parts of the world. The best tip that will make a dramatic difference is for you to purchase a humidifier. This little item can look cute once placed in any room + it is a game-changer for any skin type!
5. Don’t Forget To Scrub
You should always think about all the nasty dirt and debris that can easily find its way into your pores. Make sure that you exfoliate your skin once a week (twice max) since it will unclog your pores and get all the dirt out. Exfoliators are small scrub-like beads that can clean any oil, makeup, as well as dirt & pollution that was previously stuck. Once exfoliated your skin will be able to breathe and sink-in all the needed nutrients.
6. Massage Your Face
Massaging your face for 5 minutes each night will do wonders for everyone, especially mature, dry & wrinkle-prone skin. Nowadays there are loads of different kinds of massage tools and different kinds of rollers that can boost your circulation. With regular use of these items or your fingertips, you will end up with a plump and soft complexion, as well as better blood flow which will further promote young & radiant skin.
7. Wear The Right Foundation
You can wear any foundation you like coverage-wise, but sticking to something radiant, luminous, as well as glowy might be the best go-to in this case and during this exact moment. Why? Well, you don’t want to emphasize your dry patches or your texture. You should try to focus on your radiance & healthy-looking complexion. Stay away from anything matte if your skin is feeling quite tight and dry at the moment.
8. Get A Facial
Last, but not least, we definitely recommend getting a facial. With the right treatment and with the right approach of your aesthetician you will feel replenished and brand new! Your skin will look a lot more nourished, toned, as well as healthy. Your aesthetician will use proper ingredients and the right approach that is catered to your skin type, which will leave you looking sexy while feeling confident! Facials are something that you should do monthly if you wish to maintain your youthful beauty.
