Woman-to-Woman, a Skin Care Guide
Author:

Due
to the cycles in a woman's lifespan, her skin is
different than a man's skin. Specifically, women
have thinner skin than men which makes exposure
to the sun critically more important to a woman.
Always use skin care products that have sunscreen
at least SPF8 level. The skin on the arms, back,
and legs should be protected whenever the skin is
exposed to the sun. Typically, the critical hours
are 10am until 4pm, however, the closer to the Equator,
the more critical the SPF level and exposure time.
It is said that women are said to age more quickly
than men and the sun exposure issue is a major factor.
The sun's penetrating UVA rays on under protected
skin allow the sun's penetrating UVA rays to more
quickly and deeply damage a woman's thinner skin.
As a result of western women's dress, melanoma develops
on different body areas than men. Because fashion
dictates, women often wear skirts, the most common
site for serious skin issues is the lower legs.
In men, melanoma is most commonly found on the back.
To protect yourself from skin cancer, remember to
cover all exposed skin at all times.
A woman's skin also tends to change color and texture
with age; while sun exposure is responsible for
many of these changes, others are caused by the
dynamic hormonal variations that occur around and
during menopause. The hormone estrogen is responsible
for maintaining the bony framework beneath the skin
and helps keep the skin soft and resilient and works
to keep a vibrant, healthy facial complexion. The
issue of hormone replacement therapy is front and
center in the news today. The use of all-natural
progesterone creams provides many or all of the
benefits hormone replacement therapy does, however,
with natural products and without many of the side
effects. More information about natural progesterone
replacement can be found at www.realprogesterone.com.
A woman's skin is the largest organ of the body.
It functions as a barrier to prevent the intrusion
of toxic substance, provides a first line of defense
against bacterial, viral, and fungal organisms,
acts as a thermostat in regulating body temperature
and acts as a sensor for stimuli through touch.
Great looking skin begins early in childhood but
requires careful attention throughout life to guarantee
beautiful, healthy skin as an adult. IH Distribution

including makeup and sun screen with products that
