I love surveys! Though I don't know when I engaged in a survey last. (When did you participated in a survey last?) It's interesting to know interesting facts. (Use of interesting is intentional!) So, Vaseline surveyed Indians to know the benefits of body mmoisturizer, they use it and height of negligence. Read ahead to know more about it!
According to the survey, 31% Indians do not use a body moisturizer at all, despite of a majority [75%] of them being aware of the fact that lack of moisture can lead to unhealthy skin, lacking in glow and lustre. This ignorance about dryness leading to skin damage is highest in the east at 40% followed by the south and west each at 25%.
What does A Dermatologist says about using body moisturizer?
Dry skin is a common problem among Indian women that results from inadequate hydration and moisture in the upper layers of the skin. It causes unwanted damage like dull and flaky looking skin, rough patches and bumps and in extreme cases, nicks, cuts and cracks. This causes the skin to appear lifeless and completely lacking in suppleness and glow. We usually feel that we need to moisturize only during winter or when our skin visibly looks and feels rough and dry. This is not true. Moisturizing is a continuous maintenance process for the skin. Keeping skin adequately hydrated on an everyday basis is one of the most important and easiest ways to add glow and health to the skin
What is trans epidermal water loss?
Water passes in and out of the skin,
depending on ambient weather and humidity. This is called trans
epidermal water loss. When the humidity is high, water gets pulled into
the skin
and when it is low, it is pulled out. This is the simplest way to
understand how the skin feels drier in winter and not so dry in the
monsoons and summer. Similarly, in seasons of high humidity like the
monsoons, skin feels relatively less dry as compared
to seasons of dry weather like winter. Even in coastal areas of west
and east, in the cooler months of the year, the skin gets drier due to
fluctuating ambient humidity.
Climatic conditions when one should not skip body lotions?
Irrespective of one’s age and geographical
location, it is important, especially in the cooler and drier months of
the year, to use a moisturizing lotion every day to keep the skin’s
moisture content intact.
Don't be stupid and try this exercise!
Close
your eyes and just feel your entire right arm from top to bottom. Does
it feel smooth all through? Are there rough areas, bumpy patches, and
grainy spots?
Now, open your eyes and look at these rough, grainy areas. Do they
truly look like the rest of your smooth skin? Now apply a little moisturizing lotion, and feel and look at the area again. You will feel the difference instantly.
