Repeated sun exposure can cause long term damage to your skin. Other than the obvious, leathery, wrinkled, hyperpigmentation (dark spots) that can occur during repeated sun exposure, there can be unseen, below the surface injury that leaves residual problems.

If not addressed, the damage can cause quicker degeneration of the skin and irreversible side effects. Proper hydration, nutrition, rest and proper external skin care is critical for repair and damage improvement to take place.

The suns UV radiation penetrates deep, causing the breakdown down of elastin and collagen. This can cause premature aging amongst other problems. Skin can become dehydrated, so hydration needs to occur. Water is essential for daily skin rejuvenation and maintenance. Proper hydration can even come from the foods we eat. Fruits and many vegetables contain a high percentage of water and nutrients to help in skin renewal.

A well balanced diet full of antioxidants helps you fight off those pesky skin damaging toxins called free radicals, as well. Proper rest allows your body the time it needs to repair itself.

Since your skin is the largest organ in the body, it needs to be taken care of from both the “inside out” and the “outside in”. So, professional skin care products take care of the “outside in” part.

Wilma Schumanns O2 oxygen Blu is a product that promotes skin hydration.
