10 THINGS MOST PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW ABOUT THEIR SKIN
1. The skin is our body’s largest organ: It makes up a big chunk of our body weight. That makes it pretty important, health-wise.
2. The skin carries Bacteria: There are over 1,000 species of bacteria that grow on the average person’s skin. And almost 20 species of fungus that grow between our toes!
3. Fat cells can be destroyed: You have a certain number of fat cells. Once they are removed or die they will not grow back in those areas.
4. Acne can continue into adulthood: “Acne is a common skin condition. Acne is a chronic condition and it’s important to use the right skincare treatment. I like to prescribe for adult acne Germaine De Capuccini Purexpert because it has ingredients that treats both inflammatory, hyper keratinization and bacteria that all contribute to the condition.
5. Your skin is practically waterproof: You can swim in a pool or an ocean and nothing will pass into you and nothing will leave your skin! It turns out that each superficial cell is surrounded by waterproofing lipids/fats like cholesterol, fatty acids, and ceramides that make your skin such a great water barrier.
6. Skin brushing: It has been around for centuries. It helps exfoliate skin beautifully, boost circulation, reduce cellulite, aid the immune system, and keep ingrown hairs away.
7. Skin tone determines which nail colour to wear: Skin with pink undertones looks best with bright blue-red or lavender shades while yellow undertones should stick with coral or peachy pink colours.
8. Cut back on the sodium and glucose: Reducing your salt and sugar consumption, particularly during the evenings, will make a difference in skin’s puffiness, firmness, hydration and overall appearance.
9. The cold compress: People have recommended using a cold spoon or ice to compress puffy eyes, but doing so can actually result in spider veins due to the cold temperature breaking tiny, fragile capillaries in the delicate eye area tissues. Instead, use instant eye de-puffing creams. Like Germaine De Capuccini Timexpert SRNS detox illuminating eye formula.
10. Avoid getting IPL and waxing during your menstrual cycle: Your skin is more tender and sensitive during your menstrual cycle.
