Prevention of Dry Skin

Walking under the heat of the tropical Philippine sun is definite torture to your smooth skin. Just a few minutes after being initially exposed to the sun’s rays in the archipelago, you will feel your skin flaking up. If you truly care about your skin, there are practical means by which you can shield it from the searing heat of your immediate surroundings.

First tip to remember is to not stay in the shower for too long. Just allot yourself 20 minutes in the showers and you will do fine. Staying too long in the showers will soak your skin and zap its natural moisture off it. In addition, do not rub your skin with a towel. Pat it dry. Another tip to remember is this: steer clear from smoke and other pollutants. Nicotine in cigarettes sucks up natural skin oil and eats up your bodies Vitamin A deposits which is in charge of repairing damaged tissues. Next, get lots of sleep as it allows your body to recuperate and optimise its functions.
