Perth Skin Care Tips

For the best looking skin it is a great idea to have regular treatments at your local Perth beauty salon, but in between visits there are a lot of steps you can take to keep you skin in good shape. As perth women we need to extra care of our skin because we live in a harsh climate.

 

Here are some of the 10 best skin care tips to you as we approach summer in Perth. 

 

* Knowing your skin type is one of the most important skin care tip. This is important because not every skin care product suits everyone. In fact, all the skin care products specify the type of skin they cater too.

 

* As the weather warms up you must rink lots of water. This will not only keep your skin moist but will help in overall upkeep of your health (and in turn your skin). It might seem a bit awkward to some, however, this is an important skin care tip.

 

* Cleanse your skin regularly (1-2 times everyday).  A very effective skin care tip that helps in getting rid of the dirt and other harsh elements from your skin. Cleansing is especially important when you have been out of your house (and hence exposed to pollutants, dust etc). It is best to use luke warm water for cleansing (hot and cold water, both, cause damage to your skin).

 

* Be gentle, after all it’s your skin. Don’t scrub/exfoliate too hard or too often. Similarly, don’t apply too much or too many skin care products.

 

* Keep your skin moist at all times. Its not only our harsh sun that drys the skin, but also our windy afternoons when the sea breeze come in.  Don’t let your skin get dry. Dryness causes the outer layer of your skin to break, leading to a rough and unattractive appearance. Use moisturisers/ emollients. Moisturisers work best when applied while the skin is still damp.

 

* Avoid the use of soap on your face. Soap should only be used from below the neck.

 

* Use sunscreen to protect yourself from sun’s harmful UV radiations. You can use day-time moisturisers that have sunscreen built into them. Use them even when it’s cloudy. As we all know UV radiations are known to cause skin cancer, so this is essential for those of us living in Perth.

 

* A bit of exercise and good sleep are essential too, not just for skin care but for your health as a whole. Lack of sleep can lead to formation of wrinkles below your eyes and lack of exercise can cause your skin to slack. Moreover, exercise and sleep also help in beating stress. 

.

* Treat skin dilemmas with care. Consult your dermatologist before you go on to use a skin care product (lest you do end up harming your skin even more).

 

* Beat the stress. The harmful effects of stress are known to everyone, so take a break or indulge in a warm bubble bath or just get good sleep.

 

These are a few tips that will help your skin in between salon visits. For more advice on your particular skin condition consult the experts at your local Perth beauty salon.
