As you spend more time outdoors under the warm rays of the sun, be sure to take care of your skin to preserve your youthful appearance and keep signs of aging at bay. Driving all over town with the kids then shopping and preparing meals can become overwhelming at times. You may not realize the effects that your busy days have on your skin until you glance in the mirror and see puffy skin, pimples, and dark circles under your eyes.
Of all the things you can do to enhance your natural beauty, one of the most important is to maintain a good skin care routine. Here are a few pointers to get you started or help you get back on track.
Cleanse
Every morning and every night, wash your skin with a moisturizing wash. As you get rid of oil and dust, you will improve the tone and texture of your skin, leaving you with clean, healthy skin. Be sure to limit cleansing to twice a day to avoid drying your skin.
Hydrate
Here in the arid Nevada climate, our skin can easily become parched and dry. It is very important to preserve your skin’s moisture with a cream. Be careful of lotions thinned with alcohol, which can have a drying effect, defeating its purpose. Make sure you also keep your lips moisturized, too. Chic La Vie recommends Neocutis Hyalis.
Protect
It’s no secret that the sun’s ultraviolet rays can be harmful to your skin. In addition to the risk of skin cancer, unprotected sun exposure has been shown to dramatically accelerate signs of aging, bringing on fine line and wrinkles as well as discoloration. Be sure to apply a light conditioning sunscreen lotion SPF30 or higher beneath your makeup every day. Chic La Vie recommends Neocutis Journee.
Nourish
Just and we tell our children to drink their milk and eat their vegetables so that they can grow strong and healthy, the same advice rings true for us to preserve our youth. Adding to the benefit of a healthy diet, antioxidants can be applied to your skin to fight photo-aging and target photo-damaged cells.
Renew
Before you lay your head down for a good night’s rest, be sure to use a retinol infused cream to ward off fine lines and wrinkles. Chic La Vie recommends Neocutis Lumiere Riche.
Rejuvenate
Do you suffer from puffiness under the eyes? Are wrinkles starting to appear? Not to worry. Regular use of skincare products containing hyaluronic acids will help wrinkles relax and puffiness fade away.
Brighten
The same sunshine that helps create the very oxygen that we breathe can mark our skin with uneven
tone and spots. Fortunately, there are several therapies available. Lightening
agents, such as hydroquinone and melaplex help diminish dark spots, provide
targeted spot correction to regain even skin tone. Chic La Vie recommends
Neocutis Perle.
