Skin Habits You Can Do Without

Sunday, April 29th, 2007

When your mother nagged you each time she caught you picking your skin, there was a reason. Here’s the short list of why mom was right:

Picking your skin.

This can lead to infections from staphylococcus, temporary discoloration of the area, delay of healing and worse, a scar. If it needs some TLC to heal, then check with your doctor.

Habitually scratching or rubbing the skin.

This can cause the skin to take on a leathery texture that actually may be more symptomatic than the original problem.

Ignoring an itching or bleeding mole.

This is a significant symptom associated with skin cancer. While not all symptomatic moles are melanoma, better to find out early than too late.

Hair Care and Medications

Flake Alert

“My hair is dry, and I have severe dandruff. I’ve tried several shampoos and conditioners that contain selenium sulfide — even expensive salon products, but non of them work. Help!”

Head straight to a dermatologist for prescription-strength products targeted and formulated for your particular hair problem (it could be psoriasis, not dandruff). In the meantime, nurse flakes with dandruff shampoos like Head & Shoulders, Neutrogena, T-Gel Shampoo, and Kerastase’s Purifying Lotion.

Frizz to Death

“I have a lot of dead, wavy hair. What causes them?”

Those hairs are not dead, they are just unconditioned. Simply follow the same advice for de-frizzing super wavy tresses. Apply hair serum before blow-drying to make your locks smooth and shiny. And keep your sun exposure in check; too much heat can bake your tresses dry. Spray on an SPF product made especially for the hair to protect your locks.
