A variety of culprits are to blame for bone-dry skin. Environmental elements like chilly, windy weather and UV rays can dry out the skin. So can the many things associated with summer like salt water and chlorine. Skin also naturally gets drier with age. Thankfully, even though it might sound like skin has many moisture-zapping culprits to contend with, there are simple and effective ways to help skin retain moisture. Here are 11 of the easiest and most effective in Skincare-News.com’s latest article, “11 Timeless Tips for Softer, Smoother Skin.”
Say buh-bye to bath bubbles. Bath bubbles often contain harsh ingredients that irritate all skin types, especially anyone with sensitive skin. Instead, consider bath oils or oatmeal formulas. Oatmeal, in particular, is soothing.
Moisturize within minutes. Since moisturizers help skin retain moisture — and don’t actually provide it — it’s key to apply them immediately after showering, bathing or washing hands. In fact, applying moisturizer to dry skin is pointless. So, as a rule, slather on moisturizer to damp skin within three minutes.
Shave away. Aside from removing unwanted hair, shaving also acts like an exfoliant. It sloughs off a layer of dead skin cells, uncovering the newer, softer skin cells beneath. Just be sure not to dry shave, and use hydrating shaving creams. Shaving is actually one of the reasons men’s skin tends to look younger: By shaving, they regularly remove dead skin from their faces.
