All skin care is not created equally! Women s skin care differs from that of children and men, and among women, skin care even differs at various stages of life.
A woman s appearance on the outside is generally a good indication of whats going on inside her body. Poor nutrition, unhealthy lifestyle choices and stress all contribute to the overall poor health of the skin. Bad habits such as smoking and consuming high-fat, high-salt diets deprive the body of the important nutrients skin needs.
Women have a tendency to retain water, causing skin to look and feel more bloated. To keep water retention under control, its important for women to limit the amount of salt in their diets.
Men are gaining ground but still, women are more likely to undergo skin treatment procedures. Augmentation, dermabrasion and laser treatments all will change the skin s appearance but too much will ultimately wreak havoc. Always weigh the risks versus the benefits before going under the knife.
Besides emotional ups and downs, wildly fluctuating hormones during pregnancy and menopause can cause changes in a woman s skin.
