Selfish interest – Style

Kommersant Style talks about novelties for body skin care and why issues related to its condition should be addressed in advance, and not before the holiday season.

The well-known phrase about “preparing the body for summer” is not just a spring call that has become a cliché, but also recommendations that you should listen to all year round. It is far from always that aesthetic issues that come to the fore on warm days are the only ones; There are also manifestations that can indicate an imbalance in the body. For example, skin peeling is a story not only about visual or tactile, but also about nutrition, dehydration, and even about clothes. Maria Rudeva, dermatocosmetologist, trichologist, international expert [comfort zone], /skin regimen/ highlights the importance of finding the root cause of dry skin. Among the most common, the expert calls insufficient fluid intake, improper skin care, deficiency of vitamins A, B, E, hormonal changes (low estrogen levels, menopause), chronic skin diseases (psoriasis, eczema, atopic dermatitis), endocrine diseases (hypothyroidism or diabetes).

We see that there are many factors that cause dry skin – from natural to external. It is difficult to argue with genetics, but it is possible to influence external causes. Heat, humidity, cold, chlorinated water in the pool and the use of aggressive peels or scrubs affect the condition of the skin, which means that if possible, their impact should be leveled. In addition, the expert advises the use of creams with a high content of lipids (vitamins A, E, F, oils and nut extracts). “They will help “finish” the lipid layer of the skin and delay the loss of moisture, thereby restoring already injured skin and preventing further destruction,” says Maria. A separate category of body creams not only moisturizes and nourishes the skin, but also gives the effect of tone and tightening – such products should be included in your beauty diet all year round.
