13 Jun Smooth Skin – 5 Ways to Keep Your Skin Smooth
Smooth skin, we all want it, but living in the UK can make our skin rough and cracked. The brutal winters play havoc with our skin, but there are plenty of ways to help keep your skin great! Yay!
How Can I Get Smooth Skin?
There are numerous ways, but at Laser it laser hair removal Greater Manchester, we’ve listed our top 5 ways. Read on to learn more.
1 Don’t Forget the Sun Cream
Whilst sitting in the garden under the warm sun is a fantastic way to spend your day off, the sun’s rays are extremely damaging. Of course, enjoying the sun is still doable, but we all have to be careful of how long we sit in the sun and when we do, to wear sun cream (even if it’s only for ten minutes of sitting in it!). The biggest risk of prolonged sun exposure is skin cancer. However, sun exposure also causes premature aging. Similarly, every time your delicate skin burns, the health of the skin is reduced. This means further skin problems further down the line. If you want to keep your skin supple and smooth for days to come, don’t forget to wear sun cream.
2 Drink Plenty of Water
It’s no surprise that keeping ourselves hydrated contributes to smoother skin, considering the human body is made up mostly of water! Keeping hydrated from within will help your skin stay healthy and smooth. It is recommended to drink 6-8 cups of water a day as part of a healthy lifestyle and diet. Drink, moisturise, repeat! Doing this will help you get smooth skin.
3 Use Aloe for Smooth Skin
Aloe has fantastic benefits when eaten and when applied topically. Aloe is made up of mostly water, so it makes sense that applying it to the skin will help keep it smooth. Aloe can be used after being out in the sun, after a bath or shower, as a mask, and more. We recommend buying an aloe gel or lotion with as much real aloe as possible. Breaking an aloe leaf and applying it to the skin is also a fantastic option!
4 Wear a Night Cream
Wearing a sun cream as we mentioned above is fantastic. but we must not abandon our night time smooth skin routines too! After an evening bath or shower, slather on the body cream and as for the face, once the face is thoroughly washed, be sure to apply a generous amount of night cream or a night face mask, if you’re feeling extra fancy. Wearing a night face mask or cream will allow the product to do all the work whilst you get some serious zzz, leaving you feeling fresh faced and with smooth skin when you wake up! Doesn’t that sound great?
5 Laser Hair Removal
Did you know that laser hair removal also contributes to having smooth and supple skin? Why is this?
Laser hair removal greatly reduces and often completely eradicated the need to shave and/or carry out other forms of hair removal. Hair removal methods can be very damaging to the skin. Waxing can tag at the skin and cause it to become sore and ripped, shaving can cause irritations and cuts to the delicate skin. Depilatory creams are messy and smelly… 
moreover, have been linked with skin reactions. All of these reactions to the above hair removal methods are not fun and are contributing factors to irritated, bumpy, rough and uncomfortable skin. This is where laser hair removal comes in. With between 6-8 sessions, your laser hair removal technician will assess your skin type and administer a patch test and consultation. After that, your laser hair removal journey can start. Although each client is different, usually in 6-8 sessions, the hair will have been targeted enough in each stage of the growth cycle. After that, your skin will be hair free and smoother than messing around with razors and hair removal creams! Just remember to follow the before and after procedures given by your laser hair technician to keep your skin at its healthiest.
