    Your Skin’s Tug Of War

    What you should see more of - and what there should be less of

    1 February 2015

    If you’re looking for the perfect skin, this is what you should be aiming for:

    SEEING MORE OF YOUR DERM
    A yearly appointment with a dermatologist is just as vital as your yearly check-up with your gynae. Ask for a mole-mapping consultation or discuss any irregularities you’ve come across over the past few months. Changes like pigmentation, excessive dryness or oiliness, facial veins and skin thinning can be brought on by menopause, whereas eczema, psoriasis or rosacea can be triggered by stress, a change in diet or the cosmetic products you’re using. Your dermatologist will be able to advise you on how to treat these conditions.

    SEEING LESS OF DEAD SKIN
    Dull, ashy skin will make you look tired and unkempt. Exfoliate, exfoliate, exfoliate!
    Lips Exfoliate regularly. We love Lush’s Lip Scrub in Bubblegum (R95).
    Face Soft exfoliating masks use fruit acids to get rid of dead skin cells. Try REN’s Flash Rinse 1 Minute Facial (R470).
    Body Dry brushing helps lymph drainage and circulation, and can help to lessen the appearance of cellulite. Use a soft, natural-bristle brush like The Body Shop’s Cactus Bath Brush (R175).
    Feet The Emjoi Micro-Pedi (R399) safely removes rough skin on feet and heels. Once heels are soft, apply a thick cream every night before bed.
