Fight off skin's worst enemies


Rx for Brown Skin for African American skin care

 


If you use the best African American skin care products and moisturize every night, then you are already doing a lot for the health of your complexion. Recently, Hive Health Media ran an article explaining what your skin's worst enemies are and how to protect against them.


First, sun exposure is the number one thing that causes damage to the skin. The National Institutes of Health states that wearing sunscreen and staying out of the sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. is the best way to avoid too much sun.


Second, a diet high in fatty foods can result in unhealthy skin.


"Dull and lifeless skin is a direct indication as to what is going on inside your body.  Fill your diet with plenty of fruits, vegetables, beans, healthy fats, and essential fatty acids such as fish or krill oil to ensure that your cells are healthy and strong," according to Hive Health Media.


Finally, pollution can cause a lot of damage to the skin. This is why you should eat foods that contain antioxidants such as pomegranate and green tea, or use African American skin care products that contain these extracts.
