Elastic and Smooth Skin Regardless the Age

Keeping and maintaining the skin elasticity during the whole life is important if you don’t want to end up having a flabby skin that needs restoring. Therefore, we should always do our best to make it look attractive, healthy, and radiant. However, if the disturbance of metabolic processes in the epithelium cells is caused not by natural causes but other negative factors, then the reason for that might be your lifestyle and living habits. Let’s consider some of the habits that affect the skin appearance directly:

1. Unhealthy diet. Consuming a large amount of oily, sweet, and/or spicy and salty food leads to retention of fluid in the body and as a result, causes dysmetabolism.Your skin starts to produce more subcutaneous fat, which leads to pore clogging while creating favourable conditions for inflammation and bacteria multiplication.The face skin becomes flabby, uneven, and oily, and the risk of acne appearance arises.
2. Liquid deficiency. Water is the basis of the cellular structure. If your body lacks liquid, the skin nutrition goes worse and the epithelium gets thinner. Because of that, the skin becomes dry and sometimes even starts to flake. Drinking up to 2 litres of still water daily will solve this problem.
3. Disbalance of vitamins and mineral nutrients. The lack of useful substances always exerts downward pressure on the health and appearance of a person. The B, PP, E, A, and C vitamins are necessary for the skin. To replenish these elements, you need to eat the appropriate products and take special supplements.
4. Inadequate hygiene and care. Thorough pore pumping and choosing good caring cosmetics will help you maintain a good skin condition.

To stay young and healthy, here are a few “musts” on your list of rules you should stick to.

Must №1

Healthy Food

To maintain vitality and energy, the skin needs proteins. Without them, it  won’t be able to synthesize collagen and elastin – the elements that are responsible for the skin elasticity and its tone. Therefore, make sure you consume enough proteins every day. Also, the skin won’t look good if you don’t take in any vitamins. Vitamins are necessary to preserve the complexion, normal epidermis blood supply, and full metabolic processes in the cells. Therefore, plan your menu so that it includes various fruit and vegetables every day. If for one reason or another you don’t eat enough veggies and fruit, make sure to add some multivitamin complexes to your diet. What is also important is that your intestines and liver are healthy since the more toxins or slags there are the quicker the problems with skin will appear.

Must №2

Sleep

A healthy sleep for at least eight hours a day is a necessary condition for a good complexion. The skin invigorates and restores its protective functions during sleep while removing toxins and normalizing cellular respiration. If you do not give your skin time to recover, it will not be able to properly perform its functions and, under the influence of unfavourable factors (aggressive environmental influences, smoking, stresses), will begin to age

Must №3

Cosmetic Care

Cosmetic products penetrate the surface and middle layers of the skin saturating it with nutrients allowing it to effectively fight ageing. Choose cosmetics in accordance with your skin type and its specific problems. Keep note though that the structure of skin tends to change with time, so you should consult a skin specialist once in a while to know whether the products you use are still effective on you. Besides, changing cosmetics from time to time is imperative if you do not want your skin to get used to it.

Must №4

Massage and Hydrotherapeutic Procedures

Other ways to make your skin supple and more healthy is to perform massage and water procedures. Massage stimulates blood circulation, has a beneficial effect on the condition of muscles and skin, accelerates the cells regeneration, and reduces fat accumulation and cellulite. Using a face massage tool  for 5-10 minutes a day, you can effectively level up your skin tone already after a few weeks of regular use. When it comes to water procedures, contrast shower and warm baths favorably affect the skin too. Cold water “trains” vessels narrowing them down, while hot water causes vascular distention steaming the skin and stimulating blood circulation. If you’d like to increase the effect, add shower gels and body scrubs and rub your skin with a stiff washcloth or towel.

Must №5

Professional Care

Even the most thorough home care and expensive cosmetics cannot completely prevent skin ageing. Sooner or later, you’ll notice small wrinkles, changes in skin complexion, or worsened elasticity. When that happens, you might want to look toward undergoing professional procedures which can provide a long-lasting effect.

Jonathan Swift told:” Everybody wants to live forever, but nobody wants to grow old.” Of course, our tips will not completely prevent your skin from ageing but they will help you to grow old slowly and gracefully and stay pretty and well-groomed in spite of your age.
