In previous section of this article you have 6 tips related to what women who train need to do to keep their skin in fine form. Here are 6 more. 7. Be simple with your skin regimen. Use products that are specific to your skin type. Oily skin, for example, can benefit from small amounts of alcohol or astringents. Dry skin, on the other hand, requires more moisturizers and emollients. Read the ingredients on the product label before using it. 8. Use a night moisturizer for dry or sensitive skin. Small wrinkles and fine lines can also be held in check by night creams and moisturizers. 9. Try using self tanning creams instead of getting tan the traditional way and running the risk of skin cancer. Many tanning creams on the market can give you the "look" of a new tan. 10. Focus. "Fitness buffs need to care about their skin as much as they do their muscles. Don't neglect skin care. Your body can look great, but who cares if your face is prematurely aged?" 11. Cleanse before bedtime. Never, never, never go to bed without cleansing your face. No matter how tired you are, how many sets you've done that day, or how many minutes you've spent on the Lifecycle, consider this the last daily exercise you must perform. Letting bacteria sit on the face overnight will only age your skin. 12. Go to the pros. If you have a skin problem, go to a professional an esthetician or dermatologist, not a salesperson at a store. You wouldn't go to a barbell salesman to train your body, why give less consideration to the background and training of the person who will help you get your skin in shape? |
