Even after years of outgrowing the hormonal stage of unpredictable skin, many cowgirls still suffer from skin issues. These issues usually stem from hormonal imbalance, lifestyle influences, and sun exposure.
Once past the teenage years, your skin concerns change, and you worry more about the effects of aging. Some of the skin issues an adult faces include: sunburn, adult acne, cellulite, blemishes, fine lines, razor bumps, age spots, melasma (pregnancy mask), wrinkles and sun damage.
Here are some ways to prevent or reverse skin damage:
Donβt use long wear foundation: if you are still experiencing acne breakouts, donβt clog your pores with heavy makeup. Doing this will block the pores from hydration and encourage sebum build up that will eventually lead to more breakouts and an oily face. Try our Rio Grande Liquid Foundation or Silk Veil.
Exercise often: apart from all the awesome ways it can improve your health, exercise also helps you sleep well. Most of the skin repair and cell renewal that goes on in your body takes place at night. This way, you wake up every day renewed and healthy looking.
Hydrate your skin: use rich creams like the Churned Butter Body Moisturizer that work to moisturize and hydrate your skin. When you get a tight, pulled feeling in your facial muscles, it is because your skin is too dry and stretched. Use our hydrating face cream, Morning Dew Face Moisturizer. Also drink a lot of water. Itβs not only good for your metabolism, but also for your skin. Hydrate your skin from the inside and the outside.
Cut out the smoke: smoking dries up your skin. It is in no way healthy. It causes premature aging and depletes nutrients like Vitamin C leaving the skin without sun protection. If you want to maintain good skin, you canβt be smoking. Smoking also starves the skin of oxygen. Studies show that smoking one cigarette can constrict blood flow for up to an hour and a half. That is 90 minutes of oxygen your skin is not getting, from just one stick.
Some cases of adult skin issues can be very frustrating and embarrassing to a point. However, to take control of them, you should be ready to dedicate some time and effort into it. Even on a budget, you can still find amazing products that work well for you. Click here to browse our stores.
