So, can you use your regular body lotion?
What about your face lotion?
Is there a different process for different seasons?
Dr. Dendy Engleman tells the outlet that, “Neck skin is different.
The dermis is thinner and more prone to wrinkling.
Similar to the skin on your eyelids, this area needs support to stay healthy.
Furthermore, your neck is an oil-free zone, meaning its particularly prone to dryness.
“The neck has fewer sebaceous glands, which secrete oil.
People with more sebaceous glands have better wound healing and fewer signs of aging.”
Plus, many age-fighting creams and serums can be too harsh for this area,Ellenotes.
When it’s time to apply your lotion, the direction is important as well.
Dr. Ellen Marmur recommends to, “Apply moisturizer from the base of the neck up to the jawline.
This helps stimulate upward direction and prevents the pulling down of the skin.”
On top of your new product, your new skin-healthy routine should include less screen time.
Of course, sun protection is also key in this process.
Remember to always apply sunscreen south of your face for full coverage and to block any damaging rays.
