There will eventually be a day when you glance at the mirror and notice that your skin looks dull and weary. You may even notice a new wrinkle or an age spot that hasn’t been there before. Our skin has many natural defences but when exposed to external factors, it is prone to damage. This damage can be seen more evidently on the skin than in any other part of your body.
What causes our facial skin to age faster than it should?
Industrialisation and progress comes with a price. These activities release chemicals, gases, particles, and dust into the atmosphere. Pollutants are heavily concentrated in the cities and lead to many undesirable effects on the body. Apart from well-known health disorders like pulmonary diseases and cancer, urban pollution components interact with the surface of the skin and damage it. Unfortunately, modern-day being what it is, atmospheric pollution and lifestyle choices lead to accelerated or premature ageing of your skin.
Other effects of this pollution includes loss of hydration, loss of protection from external aggression, higher skin sensitivity, dull complexion, loss of radiance, premature ageing and skin sensitivity. Researchers have also found that urban pollution could age women’s skin 10% faster than those who live in the countryside. (Source – The Harley Medical Group)
