The causes of damaged skin

The causes of a damaged skin can be numerous:

  • Excessive exposure to the sun: THE Harmful ultraviolet rays have a detrimental impact on our skin. They reduce skin elasticity and damage collagen, causing premature wrinkles and fine lines;

  • The cold and wind, snow : these are the enemies of soft, well-hydrated skin! This is also the case for temperature variations interior/exterior too abrupt;

  • Tobacco and alcohol: the tobacco consumption can block the supply of oxygen, reducing blood circulation to your skin and other vital organs. The alcohol dehydrates the skin, leaving it undernourished and more prone to external aggression;

  • The chronic stress : it disturbs some neurotransmitters, thus causing effects of vasodilation, inflammation, hyperseborrhea or skin pigmentation disorders;

  • A bad diet : a healthy diet allows you to obtain healthy and radiant skin and, conversely, an unbalanced diet has negative effects on the skin (skin damage, premature aging, etc.). THE fruits and vegetables rich in fiber helps you fight free radicals and prevent skin problems; 

  • Lack of sleep : the sleep helps you fight stress by regulating cortisol (stress hormone) levels in your body. An 8-hour sleep cycle helps you renew skin cells. If you lack of sleep, your skin is duller, your dark circles more pronounced and the skin appears less plump;

  • The pollution : air pollution causes oxidative stress which makes the skin more prone to l'inflammation. This is particularly the case of mature skin slower to regenerate due to their weaker protective mechanisms.
