As we get older, our skin starts to lose its natural radiance, wrinkles appear and the signs of ageing set in. What’s more, our skin can be damaged along the way by years of commuting to the big smoke on tubes, buses and trains, too much sunbathing, drinking and smoking.
However, there are a number of ways in which we can help look after our skin and give it back some of its natural youthful glow.
Keep your Skin Clean
Our skin has natural oils that help keep the skin healthy, however keeping our skin clean can help prevent infections (and also wash away smells). Make sure you take any makeup off before going to bed to let your pores breathe. You can also help protect your skin from drying out by using a moisturiser. You can find a wide range of moisturising products available in shops to suit your skins needs, whether you have dry, oily, sensitive or a combination skin type.
Harmonise your Skin
Moisturisers and home skin care kits can help keep your skin healthy and fresh, but they can’t perform miracles and no matter how well you treat your skin at home there may still be areas that need a little extra help.
To really turn back the clock to get younger looking skin, no single device will do more than the Harmony Skin Rejuvenation Treatment. Its advanced laser technology pulses the skin without damaging it, to diminish imperfections, help get rid of wrinkles to achieve youthful, healthier and more attractive looking skin.
Avoid Skin Damage
The Harmony XL AFT Skin Rejuvenation Treatment can do wonders for your skin but to help make the most of it be sure to avoid damaging your skin with harsh perfumes, too much alcohol or smoking. Smoking is one of the worst things you can do with regards to skin care as it reduces the skin’s natural elasticity by degrading the collagen which supports our skin strength.
The other major cause of skin damage is the sun. We don’t get much sun in the UK, but when we do, it’s hard for most of us not to worship it! However, UV rays from the sunlight can be the main cause of skin ageing and also skin cancer. Protect yourself from the sun by wearing a high factor sun-cream and avoid heading out between 11am-3pm where the sun is at its strongest.
