Our face is a mirror of the soul. While others are tormented by constant acne, blackheads, desperately struggling with a greasy shine, girls with dry facial skin live quietly and do not think about such problems. However, this advantage remains with them for a short time. After twenty years, fine wrinkles appear. Due to the insufficient amount of fat, a protective layer is practically not formed on the skin. Resilience and elasticity are losing more and more quickly.
Dry skin is more often affected by the environment. Irritation and dryness of the skin appear after prolonged exposure to the sun, wind or frost. If you do not provide proper care for dry skin , then its premature aging will occur much earlier than you expected.
Care for dry skin properly

Masks try to choose fatter, if necessary, consult with the seller. Cosmetics for dry skin are made on the basis of herbs such as blueberries, chamomile, calendula, cornflower, arnica, aloe, mint, linden, sage, etc. Many cosmetic lines based on active oxygen have also been developed.
Beauticians recommend using ampoules with bio-hyaluronic acid 1-2 times a year. This substance helps to maintain the necessary level of moisture on the skin of the face. It is easy to rub in and easy to use.

In order not to cause excessive drying of the skin, minimize visits to the sauna and bath. Water with bleach in the pool also has a very negative effect on dry skin. To wash, use special gels for dry skin, in no case do not wash with soap - it very overdries the skin.
For prolonged exposure to the hot sun, use a protective cream. In cold weather, try to be less outdoors, especially in the wind. Dress so as to cover as much as possible the exposed parts of the body, especially the arms, legs and face.
Pay attention to how you eat. Your diet should have more fresh vegetables and fruits. You may be drinking a little liquid. Try to drink about 2 liters of various drinks per day (tea, juice, fruit drinks, water).
