Very dry skin can cause a complexion to look chalky, dull and tired, hence the name, "ashy skin." It can be especially frustrating if you try to conceal it with make up or use the wrong lotions because they can end up drying the skin even more.
Ashy or very dry skin can be resolved by using InfiniteAloe ® products to moisturize and give your skin the smooth, vibrant beauty you deserve. The InfiniteAloe Scrub to revitalize and InfiniteAloe Skin Care to hydrate and moisturize, can't be beat!
What Causes Ashy or Very Dry Skin?
When dead skin cells are shed from the surface of our skin (at an astonishing rate of 30,000 - 40,000 cells every minute) your body produces new skin cells deep below the surface. The cells travel up through the epidermis until they reach the top layer of the skin. New skin cells arrive at the skin's surface, pushing older cells off. Sometimes the dead cells accumulate, robbing you of a luminous complexion.
How does a build up of dead skin cells affect the health of your skin? Apart from looking unattractive, they can act as a barrier, so your skin no longer absorbs nutrients from lotions or creams. They can also block sweat glands, resulting in white heads, black heads or acne.
InfiniteAloe® products are carefully formulated to help you effectively banish ashy, dry, lackluster skin and keep your skin fresh and lovely.
How InfiniteAloe® Skin Care and Scrub Can Revitalize Your Complexion
The human skin is a complex organ, consisting of several layers. It is also the largest organ of the human body, so it's important to give the skin the "food" it needs. That's why the excess dead skin needs to be gently removed, while boosting hydration and nourishing the newly exposed cells at the same time.
InfiniteAloe® Scrub refreshes, rejuvenates and smoothes your skin, and will go a long way towards getting rid of ashy, grey tones in your skin, while keeping your skin soft and smooth.
After the gentle scrub, your skin will be clean and ready to glow, so follow up with InfiniteAloe® Skin Care Aloe Vera cream for a fresh, radiant look.
Special Ingredients in InfiniteAloe® Skin Care that Penetrate & Nourish Your Skin
InfiniteAloe® Skin Care includes a cutting-edge, natural ingredient called Sodium Hyaluronate (or Hyaluronic Acid), because it is a key water regulating substance in skin. Widely used by celebrities and injected by doctors for expensive beauty treatments, when applied to the skin, it can form an air permeable layer and keep the skin moist and smooth. Small molecular-weight Hyaluronic Acid can penetrate deep into the lower layers of the skin, fully combine with water to promote skin blood microcirculation and nutrient absorption and maintain normal metabolism. As a result, it can play a role in wrinkle reduction, better looking skin and replacing the moisture lost.
The organic Aloe Vera (Aloe Barbandensis Miller) that is the primary ingredient in InfiniteAloe® Skin Care, can help to firm and smooth your skin, nourish it with eight enzymes, 20 powerful amino acids, and sterols. Studies suggest that Aloe Vera penetrates deeply into the lower levels of the skin, bringing its remarkable properties to where it is most needed. (See References)
Studies also suggest that Rose Hips Oil, Panax Ginseng Root Extract and Comfrey Leaf Extract, additional beneficial ingredients in InfiniteAloe® Skin Care, provide vital nutrients in skin repair and regeneration.
InfiniteAloe® Skin Care includes many ingredients to deeply moisturize and hydrate your skin.
A Skin Care Regimen to Restore Fresh, Satiny Soft Skin
Illuminate your complexion and get rid of tired, grey skin with these steps:
- Long, hot showers can strip your skin of natural essential oils that your body naturally produces. Many dermatologists recommend taking shorter showers and using warm instead of hot water.
- Use only the mildest soap or non-soap cleansers. Soaps commonly strip your skin of oils.
- Drink plenty of water and try to eat a full cup of vegetables every day (at least one cup).
- Initially, you may need to use InfiniteAloe® Scrub, to gently exfoliate and slough off the accumulated dead skin cells. Use it every day for a few days in a row and just once a week thereafter. You are the best judge of what your skin needs. The InfiniteAloe® Scrub is gentle and moisturizing enough for frequent use, but if your skin is very sensitive, do not use it more than once a week.
- Use the "Three Minute Rule" - apply InfiniteAloe® Skin Care within three minutes of emerging from the bath or shower.
- Use only gentle, natural makeup, shaving cream, aftershave and any other product that touches your skin. Some people recommend adding InfiniteAloe® moisturizing skin care to your foundation to make it more hydrating and many men use it as a shaving lotion. Many types of makeup are surprisingly drying and shaving can really be drying.
- For men, be sure to apply InfiniteAloe® after shaving, because shaving can really hard on your skin.
Exposure to cold or dry air especially dries out your skin. If you live in wintry (or desert-like) conditions you may be more prone to ashy skin, and should be sure to adhere to a good skin care routine.
