The doctor told about the dangers of conditioner for the skin of the face

Conditioner damages the skin of the face, causing dehydration and peeling. About this on July 22, "Gazeta.Ru" was told by Alexandra Kamyshnikova, cosmetologist at the Geltek Clinic of Aesthetic Medicine.

"Air conditioners reduce humidity, which leads to dehydration, peeling and hypersensitivity. The temperature difference between the hot asphalt of the street and the icy office air is a stress for the skin barrier. It weakens, loses its ability to retain moisture and becomes even more vulnerable to UV radiation," Kamyshnikova said.

The doctor also gave recommendations on how to protect your skin instead of using conditioner. She advised using antioxidants: vitamin C, E, niacinamide, and others.

"Among the most effective is vitamin C, which brightens skin tone and stimulates collagen production. It also includes vitamin E, which moisturizes and strengthens the protective barrier, and niacinamide (B3), which relieves inflammation and reduces the effects of UV radiation. There is also resveratrol and ferulic acid, which enhance protection against the harmful effects of urban pollution," the cosmetologist shared.

The expert also recommended using hyaluronic acid and SPF products.
