1.Soap is Bad for Your Skin
Traditionally, soap was a mix of animal fats and fruit or vegetable oils. This combination has a high PH and is drying to skin, particularly to aging skin. These days, however, soaps are formulated with synthetic elements that are milder than traditional soap, and therefore suitable to cleanse skin. Most soaps have emollients (moisturisers) added, so they are beneficial for the skin. If you prefer the cleansing feeling which soap provides, don’t let those purveyors of fine skincare bully you—there’s nothing wrong with using soap.
2.Dry Skin Causes Wrinkles
Around eighty percent of lines and wrinkles are caused by the sun. The other twenty percent are the result of facial expressions such as smiling and frowning. If you smoke, the appearance of these wrinkles is accelerated. Also, as one ages the skin makes less natural oil and this makes the wrinkling more apparent. A moisturiser will help temporarily smooth away some early fine lines. Protect yourself from the sun, and you impede the development of fine lines. Remember, a tan is your skin’s reaction to an injury.
3.It Can Be Too Late to Start Wearing Sunscreen
The cumulative effect of the sun’s rays causes a multitude of damage to skin, but it’s never too late to start protecting skin from the sun. There is clinical evidence that once you start protecting the skin, it has the ability to repair itself. This repair is not going to happen overnight； it’s a gradual process that can take a couple years to yield significant results. Do your skin a favour and start the day with a layer of sunscreen. And remember to wear sunscreen during the winter. Just because you don’t feel the sun’s rays, doesn’t mean its harmful UVA and UVB rays are not penetrating your skin. If you can see shadows, you need to protect your skin.
