Silky skin

Dry skin - is unhealthy skin. So say dermatologists, and you should bear this in mind. Well hydrated skin is the most reliable barrier that protects the body from adverse external influences. In addition, saturated with moisture, making the skin silky legs much more attractive. To cope with the dryness and peeling:

  • Choose the right moisturizer. In summer, the skin gets a lot of moisture in a natural way, because the air is usually somewhat more humid than winter. This means that you can replace the thick moisturizers lotions with lighter formulas (those that contain more water and less oil). Experts recommend choosing for summer foot care lotions, moisturizing main ingredient is water.
  • Whatever moisturizer you choose, apply it on the skin while it is still wet. Due to this wetting ingredients easier penetrate the skin, and better retain moisture in skin cells.
  • Exfoliate. If you do not remove dead skin cells, even better moisturizer can not cope with its task. As soon as the body ages, the skin becomes dry, including the fact that its lower layer does not regenerate as fast as in his youth. Exfoliation removes dead skin cells, so on the surface of cells are fresh, have a much better ability to absorb moisture. You can use scrubs as commercial and domestic. For example, it can be used as a scrub coffee grounds (if you have very dry skin Dry skin: care and treatment  Dry skin: care and treatment
 , Mix it with unrefined olive oil), large sea salt mixed with honey or powdered oatmeal.
  • Soften the skin in the shower. As a first step in the process of skin hydration take a shower, using a new generation of products - gels, creams and shower oil. These products - usually a mixture of glycerol Glycerine: a miracle ingredient for skin and hair  Glycerine: a miracle ingredient for skin and hair

   - At the same time cleanse and soften the skin. During washing, using soap or a conventional shower gel with skin wash off the protective layer of natural oil produced by the sebaceous glands, but a cream-gel, on the other hand, nourishes the skin moisture at the time, when you take a shower. It, however, does not replace moisturizing creams and lotions, but only complements it.

Artificial tanning

Perhaps in jars and bottles with cosmetics is not hidden magic, but, for example, by means of self-tanning is possible to create something that is very reminiscent of miracles. Tanning quickly eliminates the winter pallor, evens skin tone, hides the flaws, and in a few minutes significantly improves the appearance of feet. Color persists at least for 3-5 days (or longer depending on what product you use, self-tanning agents with a high content of dihydroxyacetone (DHA), is usually the most stable). If you are afraid that the use of tanning too hard, relax - thanks to new formulas to buy tanned, radiant skin has become easier than ever.

  • Prepare the perfect base. The basis for the Sun is, of course, your skin. To get a uniform and lasting color, its surface is necessary to remove dead skin cells. Be sure to perform epilation Hair removal: perfect skin without hair  Hair removal: perfect skin without hair
   before using tanning. Hair removal in any way shortly after the use of tanning, and at the same time removes the tan. And as the means of self-tanning affect only the top layer of skin (dihydroxyacetone causes a chemical reaction that resulted in epidermal cells become darker), exfoliation can also almost completely destroyed tan. Therefore, do not use scrubs, at least within three days after you have used tanning.
  • Use tinted tanning. When you use a self-tanning agents, containing a quantity of bronze pigment it is easy to see where you've dealt tanning and skin which missed. As a result, thanks to this is a more even tone. (One such product - Soleil Flash Bronzer Instant Colour Self-Tanning Leg Gel from Lancome).
  • Act like a professional. Spray tanning creams intensive circular motion. Remove excess product with a napkin, to leave no streaks.
  • Correctly apply the tanning on the problem areas. Dry skin on the knees, ankles and feet are usually the cream to absorb more than other areas of the skin, and as a result becomes noticeably darker. Experts recommend a pre-applied to these places a simple moisturizer, thanks to which the skin absorbs less of the active substances contained in the Self-tanning. To where his feet are moving in the foot, left line, first apply self-tanning on his feet, then add to remaining in his hands a little self-tanning moisturizer, mix and apply the mixture on your feet. Using wipes remove any excess funds which usually remain around the fingers.
  • Not sure? Tan gradually. If you do not believe that tanning will give a good result, use self-tanning lotions, which include a small amount of a substance that changes the tone of the epidermal cells and moisturizing ingredients. You will notice a slight discoloration of the skin within a few hours after application. Tan will become more apparent with each new application of lotion. Using a lotion, you can stop at any time, if the skin tone you are not satisfied, or adjust the color as desired.
