Air Pollution: Pollution can harm not only our lungs but almost all parts of the body. In which the largest organ of our body i.e. skin is also included. Our skin protects the internal organs of the body from all types of pollutants present outside. But it itself can become vulnerable to pollution, so it is important that we protect it too. Let us know how we can protect our skin from the damage caused by pollution.
Do cleansing
Due to running around throughout the day, a lot of dust and pollutants can accumulate on your skin. Therefore, clean your skin thoroughly at least twice daily. You can use any mild cleanser for your face. This will not remove the natural oils from your skin and your face will also be clean. You can also do a double cleanse at night. With this, the oil and makeup accumulated on your face can be cleaned better. However, keep in mind that for double cleansing you should use a good cleansing oil or balm. If you want, you can also use micellar water for this.
Don't touch your face with dirty hands
Dirt from outside can reach your face through your hands. Therefore do not touch your face again and again. Wash your hands thoroughly even before doing skincare so that the germs from your hands do not get on your face.
Exfoliate
Due to pollution, pollutants can accumulate in the pores of your skin, due to which bacteria can accumulate there and you may have to face acne. Therefore, exfoliate your skin once or twice a week. Besides, it also helps in removing the dead cells accumulated on your face. However, keep in mind that do not exfoliate too much and do not rub your skin too hard. This can cause micro cuts on your skin and may also weaken your skin barrier.
Don't forget to apply sunscreen
Sunscreen not only protects you from the harm caused by pollution but it also protects you from the harmful rays of the sun. Therefore do not skip it even a single day. Apart from this, it also provides a physical barrier to your skin, so that the pollutants present in the air cannot harm your skin.
Use face mask
You can use a clay mask to detoxify your skin. It cleans the dirt hidden in the pores of your skin, which reduces the risk of pimples. Therefore, use a clay mask once or twice a week.
Eat fresh fruits and vegetables
