Understanding your skin

ATTAINING beautiful skin is not a fantasy, even for those born with poorer genes. In fact, beautiful skin has become skincare's trend lately, receiving a lot more attention than just having good skin.

Good skin is essential in the society we live in, whether at work or play. Beautiful skin simply sums up beauty in totality.

"Beautiful skin is the foundation of natural beauty," says Cindy Yeoh, a 20-something writer who takes care of her appearance. "Having dewy and fresh skin actually make you look younger. A plain girl is capable of looking beautiful when she has beautiful skin."

What causes skin ageing?.

Skin consists of three distinct layers -- the Epidermis (outer protective layer). Dermis (inner supporting layer) and the Subcutis layer (fatty tissue layer). The structural elements on the dermis layer are made up of an even pattern of collagen and elastin protein fibres embedded in a gel-like substance rich in moisture-binding polysaccharides. This even pattern ensures a healthy, well-moisture, smooth, supple and elastic skin structure with a radiant and even complexion. However, the pattern deteriorates on a daily basis due to the internal and external factor.

Approximately 90% of skin ageing is caused by external factors environment, lifestyle and UV damage, The signs of ageing are dehydration, fine lines & wrinkles. uneven skin tone, UV spots/pigmentation and.thinner skin.

Over time, the skin's essential supportive structure deteriorates and bundtes up in the lower part of the dermis, making it unable to support the upper epidermis layer. The skin becomes dry, fine lines & wrinkles are formed, dilated capillaries and pigmentation spots become more visible and the lack of elasticity makes skin more lax.

To be more specific, skin ageing begins at 30 or even earlier depending on your lifestyle. So with so much going against our skin, how do we go about getting good and beautiful skin?

The answer lies in understanding your skin and nourishing it with potent nutrients.
