The skin protects our internal organs from shock,
bacteria, UV rays, air pollution, harsh weather. The skin allows us
to feel heat, cold, touch, pressure and pain. The skin helps us
maintain a constant body temperature. The skin discharges waste
matter and toxins through perspiration and the skin takes in oxygen
and moisture through the pores for cell nourishment.
The skin also produces its own natural moisturizer of
sebum (oil) and perspiration (water). To maintain healthy and
youthful-looking skin, this function is absolutely crucial!
A balanced production of the skin's own natural
moisturizer (oil and water) is very important because it helps keep
the skin smooth, soft and moisturized. When our skin has a balanced
production of natural moisturizer, it is guarded against
dehydration. This "natural moisturizer" acts as a barrier in
preventing the evaporation of moisture from the skin. It also
protects skin from daily exposure to environmental hazards such as
UV rays, air pollution and bacteria. An adequate amount of "natural
moisturizer" helps minimize flakiness, wrinkles, fine lines and
sagging. It helps to create a translucent, more youthful-looking
complexion.
So?
As we age, the skin produces less and less "natural
moisturizer". Seasonal changes, air conditioning or dry heat as well
as hormonal changes can also cause a decrease in "natural
moisturizer".
In general...
Women produce less "natural moisturizer" than men.
Women in their thirties have about the same amount of "natural
moisturizer" as men in their seventies. Furthermore, women also
experience a greater drop in sebum production during middle age due
to menopause.
How Does Skincare Figure In?
The decrease in natural moisturizer, due to age,
environmental conditions or fluctuations in hormone levels, is
detrimental to skin. It makes the skin increasingly vulnerable to
drying elements. As the amount of "natural moisturizer" diminishes,
the skin can develop wrinkles and fine lines, as well as lose
elasticity. In order to compensate for this depletion, use of
skincare is necessary to provide extra moisture and oil.
Skincare is primarily a mixture of oil and water. Its
role is to compensate for the natural moisturizer that the skin can
no longer produce.
To meet the demands of changing skin, the amount and
type of skincare will differ during the different seasons and stages
of your life.
