Why Should I Take Care of My Skin?

 We admit it. This question leaves us speechless. Skin is the largest organ of your body. And by far, it is the LEAST appreciated, which baffles us. Much like an expensive automobile, your skin comes with all the bells and whistles to make your life easier. It protects you from the elements, regulates temperature, and acts as a filter, to name just a few of its jobs. But without regular care and maintenance, even the most luxurious automobile will wear out before its time and look older than its actual years. Your skin is no different. If it isn’t properly cleansed and exfoliated, it will build up bacteria, sweat, oil and dirt. That becomes a magnet for microbes, yeast and other flora, which try to eat the debris. Say hello to blackheads, pustules, deep lines and wrinkles, and even skin cancer. Healthy skin can fight the signs of aging easier, heal much faster, and stave off potential disease better than unhealthy skin. And, of course, it looks younger and healthier because it is! You don’t have to spend hours and hours on your skin to help it do its job better. Simply wash your skin with the cleanser that’s right for your skin type, exfoliating it once or twice a week, and moisturizing, it will do the job. Add sunscreen to further protect it from the sun’s damaging rays. But there’s one more reason to care for your skin, and sometimes, that reason can be a hard one to hear: Attention to your skin is a reflection of how much you love yourself!
