Protect Your Skin: Learn About Degradation Factors

The skin, as the largest organ of our body, is exposed to numerous factors that can contribute to its aging and degradation. Various internal and external influences can affect the elasticity, hydration and general health of the skin. Whether your skin type is sensitive (and especially if it’s sensitive) or normal, it’s very important to take care of it regularly and properly. This includes cleansing the face with a mild and effective cleanser that will clean the pores and nourishing the skin with an ideal oil that contains the necessary fatty acids for its rapid recovery and achieving the look you want. Here’s an overview of the factors that contribute to skin degradation and how to effectively prevent them.
Internal Factors
Skin health is greatly influenced by internal factors. Here’s an overview of the most important factors that play a part in the quality of your skin. However, we must emphasize that, although they are significant, they are not decisive. The most important things are your skin maintenance habits, cleaning and proper care, because in this way you can compensate for the naturally weaker quality of the skin and maintain the health of the skin if you are lucky enough to be favored by internal factors.
Genetics – Genetic factors play a key role in determining skin type and its natural aging. While we can’t control our genetics, understanding family predispositions can help tailor proper skin care.
Hormonal changes – Hormonal changes, such as those during adolescence, pregnancy or menopause, can affect skin texture. Regular hormonal balance, in consultation with an expert, can help maintain skin health.
Lifestyle – Bad habits like smoking, lack of sleep and unhealthy diet can accelerate the aging process of the skin. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including a diet rich in antioxidants, regular exercise and adequate sleep, as well as a regular skin care routine contribute to overall skin health.
External Factors
External factors represent situations or phenomena to which your skin is exposed, which represent unfavorable conditions for it. However, it is up to you to minimize the impact of these factors by taking care of your skin regularly and diligently, trying to give it exactly what it needs.
UV rays – Exposure to sunlight without proper protection can cause skin damage. UV rays contribute to the appearance of wrinkles, dark spots and premature aging of the skin. Using sun protection creams (SPF) and avoiding sunlight during the most intense periods of the day are key protection steps against skin cancer and melanoma.
Pollution – Air pollution can have a serious impact on skin health, causing oxidative stress and increasing the risk of acne and other skin problems. Regularly cleansing your face with antioxidant Emu Joy soap products and using EmuJoy pure Emu helps your skin fight against the negative effects of pollution.
Stress – Chronic stress can affect hormonal balance, causing changes in skin texture and color. Relaxation techniques such as yoga, meditation or walking can help reduce stress and keep your skin healthy.
Lack of Hydration – Insufficient hydration directly affects the elasticity of the skin, contributing to the appearance of dryness and wrinkles. Regular consumption of water and use of Emujoy oil maintain optimal skin moisture.
