6 ways to destroy a beautiful complexion
Women (and men. too) spend billions of dollars trying to make their
complexions look great. Sometimes their efforts are self-defeating.
Some of the following problems you have heard of before but I bet
you haven't heard of all of this.
Sun damage
Harmful UV rays can cause scarring of the elastic tissues in
your skin. These elastic tissues make skin soft and easy to move.
A condition called solar keratosis develops from long term exposure
to UV rays. This will cause the skin to lose its flexibility and
will make a 30 year old woman look 59. Plus skin cancer can ruin
your entire day. Use sunscreen.
Also, many women, after years of sun exposure develop a condition
called, Fungal Solar Keratosis. The sun damage cracks the skin,
allowing fungal parasites under
the skin. These parasites will interfere with normal healing even
if therapeutic skin creams are used. Special fungal skin creams
are the only solution.
Bad make up
Many manufacturers put chemicals in their products to make them
last longer. It costs money to remove spoiled lipstick et al from
the shelves of grocery stores and pharmacies. So they put things
like phenol and formaldehyde in all their skin
care products. Germs can't live with these poisons around. But
these products are very caustic. They burn skin and can cause
cancer. Use only skin products without these poisons. Check the
labels.
Dryness
If you live in a dry or salty environment, the dry air will suck
moisture out of your skin. This causes the skin cells to shrivel
up and makes puckering lines develop. Women in moist environments
like Great Britain are noted for their youthful complexions. Good
chemical free moisturizers will help. Also moving
to a lake will help.
Bad diet
Skin needs proper nutrition in order to replace dead skin cells
with new softer, healthier cells. Of course, you entire body needs
proper nutrition. But the skin shows the signs of improper diet
long before the liver does. When did you ever see an unhealthy,
ugly liver anyway? You've seen a lot of ugly skin. Look up the food
pyramid put out by the US government. Stick with this and you will
generally be ok.
Air toxins
Household cleansers contain some of the deadliest materials known
to humankind. Yet we cover our bodies with them when we clean our
homes and offices. Many contain bleach which will destroy our skin
and make us look like mummies. It's also bad for the lungs and kills
sperm development in small boys.
Also chemicals in the air from household mold will cause the
skin cells to toughen up and get scaly. The molds live in the
walls and under sinks and send these chemicals into the air of
your home.
Illness
Of course, being sick makes you look terrible. You don't need
a dermatologist for most of these problems. Just common sense
and a little time checking ingredient lists.
