Top Skin Care Tips
Skin Anatomy
The skin contains many different cells and
structures and it constantly changes as layers are shed and replaced by
other layers. Skin varies in thickness throughout the body and
different people have different layers of thickness. There are three
layers of skin, the epidermis, the dermis and the subcutaneous tissue.
The epidermis is the outer layer of skin. The top layer of the
epidermis (stratum corneum) has dead skin cells which shed
approximately every two weeks. The dermis contains three types of
tissue (collagen, elastic tissue and reticular fibers). The
subcutaneous tissue is a layer of fat and connective tissue.
SKIN TYPES
There
are four skin types. Different skin types may need different approaches
to achieve healthy skin. It is important to use the appropriate skin
care tips for each skin type.

- Normal skin has the proper balance between oil
and moisture, so that it is not greasy or dry. It looks clear, supple
and healthy. Normal skin still needs good skin care, but requires less
treatment than other skin types. - Dry skin cannot
retain moisture as well as normal skin. It may flake and it is prone to
wrinkles and lines. Important skin care tips for dry skin include the
regular use of a good moisturizer. - Oily skin has an
over secretion of sebum. There is excess oil on the surface of the
skin. Oily skin often develops spots and pimples. Important skin care
tips for oily skin include regular and thorough cleansing. - Combination
skin is a combination of both oily and dry skin. The forehead, nose and
chin may be oily, and the cheeks and other areas may be dry. Each area
should be given the right skin care that is needed for that skin type.
