Cleansing
To keep your
complexion glowing it is recommended to cleanse your face thoroughly
twice a day regularly. The best time for doing this is
in the morning and just before bedtime in the evening.
Make sure you choose a facial cleanser that is compatible with
your skin type (oily, dry, combination, or normal). Never
use hot water when cleaning your face because it dries out skin.
Use oil-free cleansers if you have an oily skin. Use moisturizing
cleansers if you have dry skin.
Moisturizing
Moisturizing
your skin is very important and it helps to protect your skin,
regardless of which type or brand used. Water-based and
oil free moisturizers are best for oily skin. Neutrogena's
healthy skin product line is highly recommended! This product
line contain rich vitamins that promote healthy skin. It
is better to apply vitamins in the form of a skin moisturizer
directly to your skin topically rather than taking them orally.
It's a great way to achieve instant results for sure!
Exfoliating
Exfoliating is
beneficial to all skin types, but especially with black oily
skin. Ridding yourself of dead skin cells that block your
pores promotes healthy looking skin looking.
When summer is
in full swing and it's time to show some skin! Be careful!
This is when black skin can be very conflicting. Especially when
you are wearing backless shirts, spaghetti straps, those shorter
than short shorts, even though you are just trying to be fashionable. Oh...
and watch out for those sexy two piece bikinis, girls!
Skin Protection
Having fun outdoors
is always on the top of the agenda during the summer months,
but what most Black women don't realize is that regardless of
the amount of melanin or pigment in our skin, long term exposure
to ultraviolet rays can put us at a higher risk for melanoma
(skin cancer) the lighter Caucasian skin colors. Be sure
to check your skin regularly for any unusual spots or blemishes.
Also, wearing hats, sunglasses is very fashionable and cool,
and keep in mind that wearing light colored clothing reflects
the sun's rays and helps to keep black skin safe. Most
important: Always wear a high quality sun block all year
long... not just during the summer months.
Skin Impurities/Conditions
Paying close
attention to black skin is very important especially during the
summer months when the sum is more harmful. However, paying close
attention to your skin all year long is very ethical. Should
you notice changes in your skin, like discoloring, spots, sours
or lumps, to be safe it is recommended to contact a dermatologist
immediately.
Nourishment
Nourishment from
the inside out. Similarly as taking care of your skin from
the outside, it is equally as important for you to take care
of your skin from the inside. Your diet and your lifestyle
plays a large role in your skins condition.

Smoking has been proven to cause premature aging and
less than healthy looking wrinkled skin.
Alcohol tends to dehydrate your skin causing it to look
dry and dull. Also, dry skin that is not well moisturized
is more prone to developing fine lines.
High fat diets with little or no fruits and vegetables
are not healthy and they it is also bad for your skin.
Research shows that a healthy diet can improve ones skin
appearance and minimize fine lines and wrinkles.
Remember the speech about needing at least 8-10 glasses
of water a daily? Well, it's true--water hydrates the skin,
which is exactly what you need. As you age, the skin becomes
dry and looses elasticity. So drink up!
