 9 techniques
to change dry skin into baby skin

 

1 After washing your face

 

The most effective thing for dry skin is moisture.

It is said that 80% of baby body is consisted by water.

The reason why body contains that much of water is that it is necessary for cells to grow.

To keep the moisture, adequate oil content is also needed.

Not only dirt but also oil content could be washed off by washing face.

It is important to restore moisture and oil content after washing face.

Remember to try to care your skin within 5 minutes after washing.

 

2　Check cleanser again

 

As it is said above, recent cleanser has stronger detergency.

Strong detergency is necessary to wash strong heavy makeup.

Strong detergency washes off the moisture of skin,

and that could be the reason to have dry skin or rough skin.

It would be a good idea to use gentle cleanser like cleanser with cloth or wiping type, or gel type.

 

3　Good to use lotion combining hyaluronic acid

 

As you get older, you lose more moisture.

One of the reasons is hyaluronic acid.

Hyaluronic acid has an effect to save water in body.

As you get older, it gets less, and water in your body decreases,

then that causes dry skin.

Keep the moisture on your skin by using lotion combining hyaluronic acid.

 

4　Take a bath with not too hot water

 

It is recommended to take a bath with warm water.

If you sweat in the bath,

that improves metabolism and excretes skin wastes.

It will be more effective if you use bathing powder which gives you more moisture.

You need to be careful not to scrub your body too hard with a towel.

 

5　Adjust your life rhythm

 

Skin is regenerated between 11pm and 2am while you are sleeping.

You may be busy every day and stay up late,

but it is better to try to be asleep during the golden time.

 

6　Measures for UV even in winter

 

Don’t you think measures for UV only in summer is enough?

It is actually necessary even in winter.

UV has an effect to promote evaporation of water.

UV exists all year around, though it is not as strong as in summer.

You will have drier skin if you are not aware of it because it’s in winter,

so it is important to have measures for UV all year around as well as for aging spots.

 

7　Improve by meals

 

Remember to eat well-balanced food and care your body from inside.

The nutrition you should take positively is vitamin A, B, E and essential fatty acid.

Vitamin A is included a lot in brightly colored vegetables, blueback like mackerel, and see weed.

It is effective to normalize the metabolism and keep skin moisture.

Vitamin B is included a lot in soy, dairy products, liver, seafood,

which is effective to prevent from inflammation and active the metabolism.

Vitamin E is included a lot in nuts and vegetable oil,

which is effective to help to secrete a female sex hormone and make moisture skin.

Essential fatty acid is included a lot in nuts, vegetable oil and seafood.

If you don’t take enough of this, that causes some trouble, and you will have dry skin.

（Remember, it is high in calories, so try not to take too much.)

A lot of chubby TV stars have beautiful skin, and it may be because they take enough nutrition.

 

8　Do not wait until you feel cold

 

If your body temperature decreases,

the circulation of the entire body will be bad

and water won’t be sent to cells of skin.

Moisturizing cream prevents the body surface from getting dry,

but you need a care to protect inside of your skin from dry.

5 body part which are stomach, neck, wrist,

ankle and back are very important to have a better circulation,

so it is effective to have cold protection measures, especially for those parts.

 

9　Try to avoid tea, coffee and alcohol

 

Tea and coffee contain caffeine.

As you may know, it has a diuretic effect and makes your body cold.

If your body gets cold, that will make your body metabolism worse and cause dry skin.

Alcohol includes vitamin A which increases the temperature of body and skin,

so that makes evaporations of skin moisture and dry skin happen.

It is recommended to have hot water for restore moisture not to cool your body.
