How to Protect Your Skin from Pollution?

Digital Doctor 23 Apr, 2022

The modern comforts are a blessing but they sure come with one of the nastiest enemies of mankind: Pollution. The adverse effects of pollution on the skin are plenty and no matter what, the majority of us have faced them at some time or another. Hence skin protection is very important for all.

The toxic elements that pollution is composed of are harsh on all types of skin and result in a wide range of allergies, skin infections, premature ageing, and whatnot. It is crucial that we take steps towards pollution control but meanwhile using some proactive ways to protect your skin should be your immediate plan of action. 

How does pollution affect our skin?

Before we learn the ways to protect our skin from pollution it is important to know the ways it is harmful to us. Pollution has a variety of pollutants that make a permanent home in our skin. These pollutants block the pores and cover the upper layer of the skin permanently when left uncleaned. The skin’s inability to breathe fresh and rejuvenate makes it prone to free radicals generation leaving it vulnerable to a wide range of problems. You need to take enough precautions and develop a plan for pollution skincare.

Some of the common skin problems due to exposure to pollutants include:

  • Dull and dry skin 

  • Complexion issues

  • Hyperpigmentation 

  • Premature ageing 

  • Dehydrated skin 

Tips to protect skin from pollution

Dermatologists offer some amazing tips to fight the ill effects of pollution on the skin. Following these steps ensure that you keep your skin flawless despite the exposure to harsh pollutants of different kinds. 

1. Embrace your bare skin 

You must take care of your bare skin and embrace it as much as you can. Wearing make-up is a great way to elevate your beauty but try and keep your skin bare as much as you can. Remove the makeup and cleanse your skin. Use a gentle and skin-appropriate cleanser to clean the skin.

2. Exfoliate the pollutants

No matter the skin type, exfoliation is very important to keep the pores open and dead skin & impurities at bay. You must exfoliate a minimum of twice a week. Add exfoliation to your weekly beauty routine and see the benefits. Regular exfoliation ensures that dirt, bacteria, and pollutants do not accumulate in the skin. 

3. Tend to your skin’s hydration needs

You must apply a quality moisturiser to your skin twice daily. Our skin loses moisture and it is important to replenish the lost hydration. With regular application of moisturiser, you can keep the skin well-hydrated and healthy to fight the adverse effects of pollution.

4. Pay attention to your diet

Pay close attention to your diet and incorporate anti-oxidants, multi-vitamins, and healthy fats into your diet. Eat healthy, fresh and nutritious food. 

Use these amazing ways as an addition to your skincare plan and ensure that you are well-prepared to fight off pollution and its adverse effects on the skin.
