With the scorching summer heat hitting us again, many are worried about the clothes they are going to wear, many are learning new hairstyles but many like me are looking for places to hide because we are gonna shine from far away. Our pimples and oil will make us stand out amongst the crowd. The complexion we restored in winters will fade again. But no need to hide, all of this is as natural as it gets. Just look for the signs of bad skin and treat your skin accordingly.
I have seen people getting worried about their skin in winters but to each their own, mine gets bad in summers. And I assume there are many like me out there. Winters require just one extra product ie Moisturizer. But the summer heat demands a good sunscreen, oil control serum, blotting pads, a proper cleanser, and other remedies to avoid tanning and acne. Summer comes with all the signs of bad skin, that demands a change in the skincare routine.
I wish that skincare would be as simple as applying a few watermelon-scented serums every night. But a good skin is difficult to achieve and requires, a good diet, hydration, creams, home remedies, and treatments. Trust me that all such things do promise results but like all other organs in your body, your skin can be diseased too and that might require attention from a dermatologist.
The first step in achieving your dream skin is to diagnose the problem. Luckily diagnosing skin issues is easy for you but unluckily others can see them on you too. Skin is quite sensitive and even a slight change in the air, weather, diet, and mental state shows its effect as bad skin. There is no objective definition of bad skin but there are certain signs of bad skin that can work as an alarm.
Signs Of Bad Skin
1. Dry Skin
If you are practicing good skincare and still your skin feels dried out and flaky, it is time to give more of what it needs. Dry skin needs plenty of moisturizers and lubricants to keep it healthy. This might not be a summer skin issue but people with extremely dry skin face it in all seasons. On the other side, some skin conditions like seborrheic dermatitis, eczema, or psoriasis can also masquerade in form of dry flaky skin. If dryness persists even after the use of moisturizers you should get in touch with the best skin specialist in Pakistan through Marham.pk.
2. Dull Complexion
Skin cells die continuously, and new cells keep replacing old ones. The buildup of dead cells on the skin can hamper your reflection and can rob its radiance as well. If you see your complexion toned down, you might think that it’s time to add some scrubbing to your skin regimen. But be careful as this can damage if not practiced with care. It’s always better to go for chemical exfoliation as physical exfoliation can lead to the breaking of a protective barrier. People with sensitive skin need to be extra watchful. If you will scrub too vigorously, you can end up with damaged, red, and sore skin.
3. Acne Breakouts
Products you are using can lead to acne breakouts as well. If you have acne-prone skin, be sure to select products that say “noncomedogenic” on the label. These will not clog your pores and will help to keep acne away. To stay acne-free consider using products with tea tree oil and water-based moisturizers. Don’t skip moisturizing if you face acne breakouts. Your skin needs hydration even when it has acne.
Also, keep using acne remedies available over the counter. If you fail to control acne using OTC drugs head to a dermatologist to get a tailored skincare regimen.
4. Itchy Skin
If after use of any routine skincare product you sense itching and burning sensation stops it right away. There could be a magnitude of reasons behind itching. For temporary relief, you should cleanse with a mild cleanser and apply a menthol cream or ice pack. If itching persists, you should see a dermatologist.
5. Aging
If you notice signs of aging appearing on your skin do not worry at all, you have earned it through a lifetime of smiles and experiences. To tone it a bit down for that lovely younger look you should consider a few changes in how you tend to your skin. There are many cosmetic methods and products available to address signs of aging. However, a good skincare routine with anti-aging products tops is the best option.
6. Blemishes
If you notice blemishes and dark spots appearing on your skin you have to review your skincare regimen. These signs necessitate being extra careful about sun exposure. Use a good sunscreen and spotlighting product as well. You should also use some natural ingredients like aloe and tips for healthy skin.
Your skin is the outermost covering that comes in contact with the external environment most frequently. As your physical needs change so does your skin’s demand deviate? To have a healthy complexion and flawless skin beware of your skin’s health status and act as required.
You are always eager to take care of all your precious organs. Slight burning in the heart makes you rush towards the hospital so why not a major skin issue makes you do the same? Skin is your largest organ, and it protects you from everything bad in the environment. So why not thank it and try to protect it at least once? To pay a long due, tribute to your skin you must visit a dermatologist.
