A woman’s body is actually quite delicate though complex, it must be able to handle differentchanges taking place and also make adjustments in each stage of her life. Whenever itconcerns health for women, it is necessary for each and every woman to become educated andknow how her body changes so that she can understand these changes and then adapt to themin the best possible manner. The skin is no exception and is often abused unknowingly, with theuse of harsh ingredients and chemicals.

There are tons of anti-aging creams, moisturizers, lotions and potions, serums, exfoliators, andcleansers on the market, and you can spend hard earned dollars on luxury brands, or just a fewdollars at the drugstore. But many inexpensive drugstore brands work just as well as the luxurybrands, dermatologists say, because they contain many of the same ingredients.

Bar Soap and Liquid Cleansers

Most bar soaps can be too harsh to use on your skin because they contain ingredients that mayirritate and dry the skin. Liquid facial cleansers or foaming products are less harsh and someeven moisturize your face as they clean. For this reason women should use a liquid facialcleanser containing ceramides, lipids that help skin retain moisture.

If you prefer a bar soap, avoid soaps with sodium lauryl sulfate which can dry skin. Instead, lookfor moisturizing soaps with ingredients such as glycerin and plant-based oils. If you have oilyskin or acne, use a cleanser containing salicylic acid, because it removes dead cells from skin,or benzoyl peroxide, which helps unclog pores. This may prevent further breakouts too.

Anti-Aging Creams and Lotions

How do retinoids, over-the-counter moisturizers and serums, which contain retinoids helpdiminish signs of aging? They increase cell turnover and may build collagen. There is anothercompound, gamma-aminobutyric acid), a neurotransmitter that seems to work at the nerve levelto relax wrinkles temporarily. Try creams containing retinyl propionate or retinol, which are foundin the skin as vitamin A derivatives. It is important to read your labels.Ingredients such aspeptides and sirtuin, a protein, help smooth uneven texture and improve skin’s elasticity.

Moisturizers

The skin on your face is constantly exposed to air and pollutants that rob skin of moisture.Old-fashioned petroleum jelly has been used for decades as an inexpensive moisturizer. Itworks by sealing in moisture, but it’s greasy and heavy.

Moisturizers with emollients and humectants hydrate the skin without the greasy effect.Humectants help retain moisture while emollients help soften and soothe skin. Together, theycan temporarily minimize fine lines around the eye or on the neck.

Some skincare products both moisturize and provide anti-aging benefits. Look for creams thatcontain glycerin and hyaluronic acid that plumps the skin temporarily, minimizing theappearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Exfoliating Scrubs

Ingredients in moisturizers and serums must get through the the skin’s outermost layer to workeffectively. Using an exfoliator twice a week will help slough off dead skin cells, allowing creamsto penetrate. It also helps make skin appear smoother and less blotchy. Some all-in-one skincleansers and exfoliators are gentle enough to be used every day. For an effective but gentleexfoliator, look for products containing glycolic acid, lactic acid, salicylic acid, or malic acid.
