Skin Dehydration During Winter

Our skin suffers during the winter and we usually ask ourselves why it feels so rough and dry. Artificial heat and cold weather will dehydrate our skin more than any other time of the year. As the body's largest organ, skin has many needs including nutrition and hydration to stay in good shape. This is why when you want to transform your skin you must start working from within.

How Do We Accomplish This?

While drinking water won't actually moisturize your skin, it will help your internal organs function properly. Our skin holds about 70 percent water by binding the water it retains to hyaluronic acid, thus keeping the skin moist. This affects your skin's health and natural beauty. It is also important to have the right nutrition, and take the proper vitamins and minerals. However, when you enter your late 20's and your skin begins aging, these steps are no longer enough on their own. Understanding how your skin works is the first move towards reducing aging.

Alongside dehydration, collagen loss is another key factor in the aging process. As skin ages, the middle layer of skin (the dermis) thins due to collagen loss. This reduces the skin's ability to retain elasticity (from elastin) and moisture (from hyaluronic acid). Due to the loss of elastin and hyaluronic acid the skin becomes thinner, dryer, and loses its suppleness and elasticity. But there are ways to avoid the aging effects of dehydration and

collagen loss.

How To Use Hyaluronic Acid?

First, you want to make sure that you purchase real hyaluronic acid. It must be a beneficial product that will be able to permeate the top layer of skin to reach the dermis below. Applying a small amount of hyaluronic acid every morning and night before your moisturizing cream will help your skin retain necessary moisture.

Why Is Nutrition So Important?

Taking the right vitamins and minerals will help the circulatory system function well. This enables the blood that carries nutrients and oxygen to the skin cells to suitably perform this normal and systematic function. Several important nutrients and vitamins are

Flax seed pills

Calcium

Vitamin D

Vitamin C

Primrose oil

These wonderful tips will help to keep your skin more moist and healthy.
