Toned skin is a bit of a worry, we treat wrinkles, we are careful to choose creams with a filling effect and sometimes even having smooth and well-groomed skin, the features are relaxed, the neck without tone, eyelids and heavy eyes. .
What can we do to keep facial skin toned ?
Toned skin is maintained from within
First of all let us remember that the well-being of our body is seen on the skin .
If the color of the complexion is dull, pale, the skin is not very oxygenated and sprayed, if it is not very elastic and dry to the touch, it is good that we begin to hydrate and nourish it also from the inside.
Here are some tips that can maintain or improve the tone of the face skin.
> Drink plenty of water, it serves to hydrate the body and consequently all the tissues. A hydrated skin shines, is soft and conveys better the active ingredients of the creams that we use daily to nourish it in depth.
> Eating fruits, especially those rich in vitamin A and E, such as apples, apricots, walnuts, hazelnuts, pistachios helps provide the right nutrients and antioxidants that serve to strengthen the epidermal tissue.
> Hyaluronic acid, it is also absorbable through supplements formulated for internal use, with sodium hyaluronate, dog rose, vitamin C supply, zinc gluconate, transporter of vitamins A and E, Coenzyme Q10, antioxidant, all synergistic elements that increase absorption of hyaluronic acid which in turn has the ability to retain a quantity of water 1000 times greater than its weight, to stimulate collagen and to compact the tissues .
Toned skin is also maintained from the outside
Creams and serums are the tools that we all use to treat our skin, keep it toned, hydrated, nourished. The important thing is to choose the right phytocosmetics, which respect the pH, the consistency of our skin, and therefore that are as personalized as possible .
It is not enough to choose the cream with the most attractive packaging from the shelf of the store ; it is often right to be more demanding, after all the skin is our "representative" organ with which we come into contact with the outside world and in particular that of the face needs even more attention.
Oily skin, dry skin, sensitive skin, seasons as diverse as summer and winter, lead us to have to choose different products, which respond to the different needs of the moment.
The most suitable formulations for having a toned skin are those with hyaluronic acid and those based on ceramide and oligopeptides.
Pure Hyaluronic Acid cannot be absorbed by our skin because it has dimensions and molecular weights that are incompatible with our epidermal tissue.
It must therefore be modified by reducing its molecular weight to reach depth and stimulate the formation of collagen. Hyaluronic acid has the property of retaining high water levels, thus hydrating and fleshing out the tissues, making them toned and elastic.
The oligopeptides are amino acid molecules that, linked together, characterize the serum or cream, making it a remedy with a filling effect, aided by ceramides, a lipid component that structures the skin barrier.
How to apply creams
We often make mistakes when we go to apply creams and serums on the face. Who of us didn't smear them spreading them energetically as if doing so made them absorb more skin? Maybe from top to bottom, straight from the jar? Totally wrong!
Both the serum and the cream must first be heated on the hands to make them compatible with the temperature of the skin, without creating thermal microshocks that could cause the product to refuse.
They must be tapped on the skin of the face, so as to bring oxygenation to the surface, vasodilation and a sort of reception of the active ingredient. The so stressed skin and underlying tissue experiences a micro-massage to which it responds by elasticizing itself.
Some suggest also to make small pinches, both on the face and on the neck to tone the tissues, particular grimaces that elasticize the facial musculature. In short, we have various tools to put in place to keep the skin revitalized and toned.
