When we’re young, it seems like we can do anything and come out unscathed. Even trashing our body, which at the time probably doesn’t seem much like trashing.
Looking back to the 20s years from the 30s or 40s often includes memories of days and nights filled with pleasure. And, it can bring about regret and wishes for do-overs.
For those who aren’t already going through the learning experience of “I guess I shouldn’t have done that,” here are 3 things that no one tells you about your skin in your 20s.
Those 20-something days spent glued to a beach towel with baby oil slathered all over are going to turn into days, decades later, that include wrinkly and dull skin.
While the reward of a hot tan is almost instantly gratifying, it does come with a price that might be noticed the next day, and will surely show up in middle age.
It’s hard to believe that tanning parlors still exist, but unfortunately the do. With so much information available today about how we expose ourselves to harmful UV rays, hopefully the dangers of tanning salons will spread and people will stop using them.
The amount of UVB rays (rays that cause burning) and UVA rays (rays that cause aging) that one is subjected to in a tanning bed is significantly more than spending an equivalent period of time outside. In fact, just one session in a tanning bed increases the risk of developing melanoma by 20%.
Cigarettes damage the lungs, but they also harm the skin. They inhibit collagen creation and that leads to lines and wrinkles.
Timeless Skin Care’s line of natural skin care products can help reverse damage done by the missteps of youth. Our anti-aging serums and Vitamin C Serum help heal skin problems caused by negligence. But, it’s best if these products are used in combination with careful thought about how our daily actions affect our body.
They say everything in nature is about balance, and that is no less true when it comes to our skin. Achieving the delicate ying and yang of beautiful skin may come down to maintaining the right pH balance. So, what is the magic pH level of healthy skin? On a scale of 0 to 14, the ideal state is slightly acidic, sitting around 5.
What products we use can also affect the pH level of healthy skin. Have you ever wondered why some cleansers give your skin that squeaky-clean tight feeling? They could be disrupting your skin’s pH level. Choose soap-free cleansers that are pH balanced (not too alkaline or too acidic) that fall within the range of normal, healthy skin.
If there is anything we can take away from the pandemic, it’s that we’ve all been washing our hands wrong. Hopefully after we get through this, the normal flu season will never look the same thanks to a new, higher awareness and appreciation for good hygiene!
So perhaps it’s not such a big surprise to find out there are common pitfalls to avoid when it comes to washing our face too, and some important tips for maintaining clear, healthy skin.
