If your African American skin is dry or oily, or if you have acne, you've probably tried many different products to improve its condition. If nothing seems to be working, you may want to figure out what is causing these problems. Recently, The Los Angeles Fashion Magazine published an article explaining what may be behind various types of complexions.
Dry Skin
If you have dry skin it may be a sign that it is dehydrated and lacks skin-repairing vitamins.
"What you need to do is start drinking plenty of water because this will hydrate your skin, make it soft and give it elasticity. In addition, try using an intense, vitamin enriched moisturizer which will help to eliminate dry patches of skin as well as give your face some much needed vitamins," according to the news source.
Oily Skin
If you have oily skin, the information provider suggested that you examine your diet. Try cutting out foods that are greasy and high in fat.
The Mayo Clinic also recommends that people with acne change their diet. Dairy products and carbohydrate-rich foods such as bread, bagels and chips may cause the skin to break out.
