Let's take a look at some of the pointers for skin care that will help you restore its lost radiance and flawlessness. Dry Skin Since your skin is dry and sensitive too, the first thing it needs is hydration. Environmental pollution and harsh chemicals take away every ounce of moisture from your skin. The only way of replenishing it is drinking a lot of water and eating a lot of water based fruits. Every night, before going to bed, wash your face with warm water and use a good cleanser to clean out the pores. Wash it once again and apply an effective moisturizer to retain the existing moisture. Moisturize your skin immediately after your morning bath. Coconut oil, cocoa butter or Shea butter are good moisturizers since they are rich in vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin D, essential oils, and protein. Avoid using makeup as far as possible. In case you do, remember to take it off before you hit the sack. As dry skin gets easily irritated, it's wise to pat dry it. Include a lot of healthy oils in your diet to bring back the shine on your skin and take away years from it. Oily Skin Oily skin is characterized by enlarged pores. The oil on such type of skin is sebum, which is secreted by the sebaceous glands. Thus, oily skin is more likely to have acne, than any other type of skin. For sensitive oily skin, mud packs are the way to go. Sandalwood paste and rose water face pack, absorbs the excess oil from the surface of the skin preventing accumulation of sebum and acne. People with very sensitive skin must wash their face at least three times a day. Using anti-bacterial essential oils such as lavender oil can also help you get rid of blemishes and acne. Once again using mud packs such as multani mitti (Fuller's earth) pack will suit your skin. For sensitive and oil skin, avoid eating junk and fried food. Watch your intake of sugary food stuffs too. Eat a lot of fresh fruits, vegetables, wheat germ, whole grains, beans, and nuts. Drinking ample amounts of water will assist flushing out of toxins, thus keeping your skin healthy and hydrated.
