Needless to say, we care about our body badly. This applies even to those who regularly go to the gym and observe the diet, because to preserve the beauty and youth of the "home of the soul" is not enough. Even trained muscles will not hide the age-related changes if the skin on the body is dry and flabby.

MOST of people take care of their face much more carefully than they do about the body. The reason for this is very banal - the body, as a rule, is hidden by clothes from the critical glances of others, which can not be said of the person. However, it is fair to say that skin care is really different from face care. First, for most of the year, the body's skin is protected from the negative effects of ultraviolet radiation, and secondly, it is not as thin as on the face. Nevertheless, the skin of the body also grows old, suffers from dryness and dehydration, loss of elasticity and stretch marks. In general, there are enough problems with the body.

The most common problem - dehydration of the skin (many for sure the familiar feeling of "tightness", especially after the shower, when the skin also begins to peel). By the way, the so-called "goosebumpie" - a small "dry" rash on the body - is a classic example of a violation of the level of moisture. The main causes of dehydration are the use of alkaline detergents and the systematic neglect of moisturizing body milk. Therefore, in order to solve this problem, it is necessary to replace soap with shower gel and regularly use light moisturizers for the body.

Dehydration is somewhat different from the problem of "constitutional dryness of the skin", which is caused by a decreased fat loss. According to IPSOS Access Panel 99 and Euro Panel 99, in Europe, 36% of women admit that their skin is dry, 60% of those who use body cream still suffer from dry skin, and 56% of women who have dry skin skin on the body, they say that their skin does not belong to the dry type.

According to Vichy laboratories, the phenomenon of skin dryness is characterized by a thin hydrolyside film combined with numerous repeated external aggressive effects, such as: cold, sun, cleansers, soap containing alkali, long and hot baths and t. All this leads to disorganization, and further damage to lipid plates. People with dry skin need to stop once and for all from using alkaline detergents, and for care to apply nourishing creams with a more saturated texture. Also good are body masks, the effect of which increases, if at the same time wrapped in polyethylene film.
