"A direct comparison between photoaging and natural aging"
Excerpt from "Thermal aging: A new concept of skin aging"
In fact, the skin problems caused by various kinds of self-destructive behaviors are similar to photoaging (large pores, rough skin, dull complexion, fine lines and wrinkles, etc.). However, because most of the people who commit su***de are young, it does not look that serious, and these problems are reversible as long as they stop or reduce su***de. You have done enough to protect against ultraviolet rays, don't be crazy!
Photoaging should actually be called damaged aging, that is, due to some irritating factors, the skin is damaged, and various aging phenomena defined in histology appear. From the appearance, the mild manifestation is enlarged pores, rough skin, dull complexion and other skin beauty problems. Only when it is very serious and has never been protected for many years will it become like the picture (but I have not seen such a serious one in real life).

Besides, the picture is not just the fault of ultraviolet rays. Ultraviolet damage must also be accompanied by thermal aging. It is impossible to tell which of the two is more!
-
In fact, in addition to ultraviolet rays and heat, there are many other factors that can stimulate the skin to "damage and age"! And for us skin care enthusiasts, the harm caused by the sun is no less than these two! It's just that the damage caused by the sun is more intuitive. Everyone knows that sun exposure will make you tan and even peel. And other factors, such as washing your face carefully, which people tend to think looks good right after washing... will be ignored. The same is true for factors such as heat aging and friction.

Wrinkle formation and prevention
Wrinkles are a manifestation of skin aging, mainly caused by internal and external factors. Internal aging includes the loss of collagen and elastin, slowed cell renewal, and fat loss, which lead to sagging skin and wrinkles. External aging is caused by UV damage, free radical damage, dryness and lack of water, and frequent facial expressions, which accelerate skin aging. In addition, lack of sleep, malnutrition, and gravity can also promote the formation of wrinkles.

Key measures to prevent wrinkles include:

Sun protection: Use sunscreen with SPF 30 or above every day to avoid UV damage.

Moisturizing: Use moisturizing products and regular hydrating masks to strengthen the skin barrier.

Antioxidant: Use skin care products containing antioxidant ingredients such as vitamin C and E, and eat more foods rich in antioxidants.

Promote collagen: You can try using Botox to reduce dynamic lines.

Healthy life: Eat a balanced diet, drink plenty of water, avoid to***co and alcohol, and ensure adequate sleep.

Reduce expression lines: Control facial expressions and use Botox when necessary.

Exfoliation: Regular and gentle exfoliation promotes cell renewal.

Manage stress: Relieve stress through exercise, meditation, etc.

Scientific skin care and a healthy lifestyle can effectively delay the formation of wrinkles and keep the skin young.

Getting rid of body acne ❤️✨🌼

Do you ever struggle with reapplying sunscreen after putting on makeup? Try this:
1) Use a beauty sponge to reapply
2) Try applying sunscreen with a brush
3) Use a generous amount of a good, skin-friendly facial sunscreen spray
4) Use a powder-based sunscreen
5) Just wear a hat 😊

acne usually appears as small papules or blackheads on the skin, which can cause uneven skin and discomfort. The main causes of acne are clogged pores, excessive sebum secretion and bacterial infection. These factors work together to cause acne to form on the surface of the skin, and may also be related to hormonal changes, eating habits and improper skin care. Horse oil can also help with acne and acne scars. Horse oil is rich in fatty acids, squalene and antioxidants, which has a deep moisturizing and repairing effect. For acne-prone skin, horse oil can balance the oil secretion of the skin and avoid the worsening of acne caused by excessive dryness or excessive oil. Its anti-inflammatory properties help soothe the redness and pain caused by acne, reduce the inflammatory response of acne, and promote the healing of acne.

In addition, the nourishing and repairing function of horse oil can accelerate the healing process of acne scars. It helps to fade acne scars and pigmentation by promoting cell regeneration and repair of the skin, making the skin even and smooth again. However, it usually takes longer to improve acne scars, so it is recommended to use horse oil continuously and be patient.
