Why Does Skin Become Dry?
As we age, estrogen levels in the body gradually decrease, directly impacting collagen production, and leading to loss of elasticity and rough skin. In addition to hormonal changes, lifestyle habits, and environmental factors can exacerbate skin dryness.
Simple Steps to Revitalize Your Skin!
- 1.Hydrate Anytime, Anywhere
Hydration is key, day and night! In your youth, oily skin might have made you overlook the importance of hydration, but often the skin is "dry inside, oily outside." Choose skincare products with ceramides and hyaluronic acid, and consider using a mask during a bath to allow your skin to absorb moisture fully.
- 2.Stay Hydrated
Dehydration is one of the main reasons for dry skin. Since 60% of the body’s cells are composed of water, maintaining adequate hydration is essential for healthy skin. Aim to drink at least 1.5 to 2 liters of water daily and pay attention to water-rich foods in your diet. If your lips or eyes feel dry, it’s your body signaling you to hydrate!
- 3.Repair Skin with Essential Oils
Aromatic essential oils not only repair skin but also boost your mood! Use lavender, neroli, or geranium essential oils and steam your face to let your skin absorb nutrients while enjoying the therapeutic scents. Just add a few drops of oil to hot water, close your eyes, and let the steam envelop you for a relaxing experience.
