What do you think of when you imagine skin texture? Is it what your skin looks or feels like? The outer layer of your skin is where you can see telltale signs of something going wrong within your body, whether the changes come from natural aging or other factors.

What do the visible signs  tell you about your skin?

When you see build up of dead skin cells, you recognize it as ashy or dull skin. A sign that your skin just might need exfoliating.

Hyperpigmentation is a form of uneven skin tones or dark spots.  What has caused your skin to take on this appearance? When caring for black skin,  hyperpigmentation is certainly a challenge that you’ll encounter.

When your skin looks rough and dry or feels that way when you touch it, what is your skin telling you.

Lifestyle can contribute to the appearance of your skin.  As you mature, of course this will have an impact on your skin, but external factors have an impact as well.  The three biggest external factors that have an impact on your skin’s texture is alcohol, smoking and sun exposure.

When your skin is exposed to the sun, it begins to undergo a loss of structural integrity, not only on the surface but also in its inner layers.  As African Americans, you often feel that you’re not or can’t be affected by the sun’s rays.  This is clearly a myth!

It’s essential to consider the depths of your skin when addressing its texture.  Water loss harms the skins enzymes responsible for promoting proper hydration to your skin.  Your collagen and elastin fibers are actually responsible for the overall appearance of your skin.
