Skin Care Products and You
Posted By Stephanie Tripp on November 4, 2010
Skin care is not as confusing as it may seem. With thousands of skin care products on the market today, it’s easy to see how people find themselves purchasing product after product. In reality, most people only need a cleanser and moisturizer. To determine what type of these two skin care products you need, start by determining your skin type.
If your face often feels rough and dry, with occasional redness and irritation in certain areas, you probably a dry skin type. In this case you will want to choose a moisturizer capable of replacing the missing moisture in your skin. Buy a cleanser that is extremely gentle, and not exfoliating. One that contains soothing components like aloe vera are best. Additionally, adding Omega-3, Vitamin E, and Vitamin B Complex supplements to your diet can help eliminate dry skin.
If you have shiny, slick skin, particularly on your chin, nose and forehead, you are most likely a oily skin type. This isn’t all bad, as oil in the skin delays the appearance of wrinkles. While you may be tempted to purchase a cleanser that will strip your skin of the excess oil, stick with a milder wash instead. The reason for this is because your skin will need enough remaining oil to maintain it’s elasticity.
Often, the best care for acne prone skin is not the expensive acne skin care treatments on the market, but a simple mild cleanser and a oil free moisturizer. If you have been spending hundreds of dollars on acne products with little or no results, try this simple skin care combination for a week instead. You may just be pleasantly surprised.
Knowing the best skin care products to purchase will be easy once you determine your exact skin type. Even better news, once you start using the correct skin care products you can correct virtually any skin problem.
